Introduction:
As a mechanical technician, you will contribute to upgrade projects of the CMS detector, covering a broad range of responsibilities. These include workshop-based mechanical work, installation of detector systems, and the design and use of tooling for the removal and installation of CMS sub-detectors, as well as radioprotection duties in experimental areas and associated laboratories.
You will also take on coordination and operational responsibilities within the CMS Technical Coordination team, working closely with sub-detector groups and CMS technical support teams.
Functions:
- Take responsibility for activities related to safety and radioprotection for subdetector removal and installation, working with CMS safety officers and subdetector teams, operating in radioprotection-classified areas, and applying safety rules.
- Manage a mechanical workshop, advising and assisting CMS subdetector teams, ensuring the availability and proper use of equipment and tools, and supplying consumables.
- Provide technical support and hands-on assistance to CMS subdetector project teams operating within the CMS laboratories at CERN, in the fields of mechanical manufacturing, assembly, structures, and welding.
- Take part in the development, testing, on-site installation, and on-detector operation of custom tooling for subdetectors, working with subdetector technical teams.
- Operate and maintain hydraulic, mechanical, and electromechanical systems.
- Organise and supervise the storage of subdetector equipment in CMS-reserved spaces at CERN, ensuring proper inventory and space management.
- Assist the territorial safety officer of the building where the mechanical workshop is located, supervising work requested on infrastructure for general safety, and using a mobile crane and forklift when needed.
- Serve as the technical contact for mechanical activities with subdetector teams and for space areas under your responsibility, reporting regularly to the Technical Coordination managers.
