Software Engineer - Accelerator Controls
Datum: 3 maj, 2026 Tid: 11:59
Placering: CERN
Mer information
As part of the software team of theMachine Protection and Electrical Integritygroup, you will work on the upgrade of the Beam Interlock System (BIS) and Safe Machine Parameters system (SMP), which are key protection systems for the safe and reliable operation of the whole accelerator chain.
Both systems are undergoing a major overhaul, starting from their components and extending to software elements: data acquisition, control, supervision and monitoring. While each have their own purposes, use‑cases and domain specificities, the two systems share the same technical stack: low level C++ real‑time controls application, Java data transformation layer, Python and Angular GUIs, and integrations within the wider CERN accelerator controls.
Key aspects of the job include extending the reference model of the SMP system, implementing the real‑time controls application integrating with the SMP and BIS hardware elements, as well as the upper software layers (Java, Python, Angular), and facilitating their integration with other software systems and the accelerator controls environment.
