Job Description
Your responsibilities:
As a member of the project team of the \"CNGS Target Area Dismantling\" project, within the AWAKE project, you will support the team both with your technical engineering skills and communication and organisational skills. First of all, you will familiarise yourself with the environment and processes of the AWAKE dismantling and the subsequent CNGS target area dismantling, together with the different work package leaders.
Planning & coordination:
You will take all the inputs from CNGS dismantling and AWAKE stakeholders to develop, follow up and document the planning. Furthermore, you will follow up on the on-site activities in line with the planning and address coactivity where necessary, all while ensuring CERN's general and radiological safety rules are respected.
Engineering & safety support:
You will assist the project leader with integration, installation and infrastructure studies, with the help of a dedicated design office. You will participate, with the work package leaders and the Safety correspondent, in compiling the general safety and radiation safety documentation of the CNGS dismantling. After collecting information from AWAKE regarding their future installation in the dismantled CNGS target area (laser, electron source, magnets, plasma cells, etc.), you will define and ensure execution/installation of what is needed to prepare the emptied CNGS target area for the AWAKE installation (shielding, basic services).
Within the AWAKE project and the CNGS dismantling project, you will be part of a dynamic team of young, competent and enthusiastic scientists and engineers.

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 on http://home.cern.
