Software Engineer (TE-MPE-CB-2024-166-GRAP)
* Full-time
AccTesting is the software framework used at CERN to perform the commissioning of the LHC superconducting magnets, electrical circuits, and their protection equipment. AccTesting implements the automation, scheduling, and systematization of the commissioning procedures. Positive with the experience of a fast and automated commissioning of critical systems, it has been decided to expand the use of AccTesting to other accelerator systems and to the entire accelerator injection chain, spreading to all accelerators at CERN.
You will join the software engineering team of the collaboration between TE-MPE-CB and BE-OP-LHC sections and work together with the Operation Crews and Equipment Experts.
Your tasks will be:
* Extend the AccTesting framework to support all accelerator systems for automated test execution and analysis;
* Renovate the way the services are deployed to scale it to the entire accelerator complex;
* Define requirements with operators and equipment experts;
* Java 11+, Spring Framework, and Spring Boot;
* Experience with gRPC and containerized software;
* Ability to work in a team and to participate in design discussions;
* Experience in Scrum/Kanban methodologies would be a plus;
* Fluent in English; the ability to work in French would be an advantage;
* You have a professional background in Computer Science or Software Engineering (or a related field) and have either:
o a Master's degree with 2 to 6 years of post-graduation professional experience;
o or a PhD with no more than 3 years of post-graduation professional experience.
* You have never had a CERN fellow or graduate contract before.

About us:
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. Find out more at http://home.cern.
