Job Description
Your responsibilities
The CMS Outer Tracker (OT) is comprised of two different silicon detector module types, PS and SS modules. A key element of the modules are hybrid boards which house different ASICs as well as auxiliary circuitry for the control, readout and powering of each module.
The quality of these hybrids has to be closely monitored during pre-production and production to ensure that they meet the CMS OT module requirements. this includes dimensional checks, visual checks ans well as long term reliability checks.
The fellow will work closely with the CMS team in defining and following the QC procedures and contribute to monitoring of the quality of the hybrids. Furthermore the fellow will work on reliability studies of the components.

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 on http://home.cern.
