Mechanical Engineer for the ATLAS Detector

Oversee the design of all mechanical aspects of a detector system, in collaboration with the worldwide institutes contributing to the production of deliverables. Define and manage the mechanical interfaces between the ATLAS detector and its infrastructure, including supports and services. Supervise the production of 3D integration models and ensure that the relevant envelopes are properly taken into account. Develop the transport and underground installation sequence, and design the associated installation tooling and its interfaces with the detectors. Support the detector team in coordinating the production of mechanical components to help ensure their timely delivery and facilitate smooth assembly planning. Participate in the assembly of the detectors inside the clean room. Supervise the installation of service infrastructure, including cable trays and flexible chains, in the ATLAS detector environment and ensuring it is implemented in line with the detector commissioning needs. Supervise the installation of the detectors inside the Experimental Cavern.

At CERN, the European Organization for Nuclear Research, physicists and engineers are probing the fundamental structure of the universe. Using the world's largest and most complex scientific instruments, they study the basic constituents of matter - fundamental particles that are made to collide together at close to the speed of light. The process gives physicists clues about how particles interact, and provides insights into the fundamental laws of nature.
