    Job Description

    Your responsibilities

    If you are a mechatronics or robotics engineer willing to work on both hardware (design, construction, electronics, testing) and software (navigation, trajectory generation, sensor acquisition, motor configuration and testing), this position is for

    Within the Beams department (BE) the Controls Electronics and Mechatronics (CEM) group is responsible for the research, development and operations of a fleet of robotics systems used for inspection, maintenance and repair tasks.
    Such systems require complex systems engineering to ensure their operation readiness, including aspects from motor configuration, electrical connections, battery status, network configuration, onboard computers, onboard software and the user interface.

    At CERN, robotic platforms are used regularly for inspection, maintenance and repair tasks. A new robot prototype has recently been built and it will be used to perform regular radiation protection surveys and punctual inspection and possibly repair tasks.

    As a Robotic Control Engineer, you will:

    • Update the robot hardware;
    • Increase the functionality to perform autonomous surveys along paths in unknown environments, as well as adaptive surveys of arm trajectories to follow complex shapes;
    • Adapt the algorithms to other platforms in other accelerators at CERN

    This position suits a mechatronics or robotics engineer willing to work on both hardware (design, construction, electronics, testing) and software (navigation, trajectory generation, sensor acquisition, motor configuration and testing). "

    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

    We are on a Quest. A Journey into discovery like no other. Bring your expertise to our unique work and develop your knowledge and skills at pace. Join world-class subject matter experts on unique projects, in a Quest for greater knowledge and deeper understanding.
