Job Description
Introduction
Are you a Mechanical Engineer with a passion for challenging projects in the field of particle physics experiments Do you have experience in integrating designing and managing CAD data in a large scientific programme or in an industrial environment Then seize the opportunity and join the ATLAS team in CERNs Experimental Physics Department and contribute to the construction of the next Upgrade program of the ATLAS experiment.
You will join:
- The Experimental Physics (EP) Department which carries out basic research in the field of experimental particle physics in a stimulating scientific atmosphere standing as an important reference for the European physics community. It also contributes to the education and training of young scientists.
- The ATLAS Detector Operation group (ADO) group which has major responsibilities in the ATLAS detector operation maintenance and future upgrades.
- The Project Office (PO) section is in charge of operating maintaining and upgrading the infrastructure and the detector of the ATLAS experiment.
Functions
As part of a team you will integrate services design and oversee the production of support structures and design installation tools. You will prepare assembly drawings for material procurement and oversee the management and organization of the ATLAS CAD models into the ATLAS Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) structure the definition and the control of detector system geometrical envelopes as well as reverse engineering.
In particular you will:
- Integrate services into the ATLAS environment and infrastructure which will cover a wide variety of activities:
- Define envelopes and routing paths.
- Work closely with the cabling and piping project engineers to integrate services (cables & pipes) and define cable tray crosssections as well as their mechanical support and fixation.
- Prepare a cabling study document that will be provided to the team in charge of the installation.
- Prepare production drawings for specific cable supports as well as assembly and layout drawings with a detailed bill of materials.
- Report regularly to the ATLAS Technical Coordination team.
- Manage engineering documentation.
- Steer system integration studies and manage CAD models within the ATLAS PLM structure:
- Define the envelope of new systems and issue the associated drawings and reference documents.
- Participate in design reviews and periodical meetings to control design progress concerning the envelope.
- Ensure compliance with envelope specifications during the construction assembly and installation of new systems.
- Organize CAD models within the official tree structure to maintain an uptodate CAD environment.
- Allocate and manage space for future needs.
- Organise reverse engineering campaigns.
- Supervise designers.
Qualifications :
Masters degree or PhD or equivalent relevant experience in the field of Mechanical Engineering or a related field.
Experience:
Required Experience:
- Proven experience in the integration and design of services within large and complex environments.
- Experience in CAD management within an integrated PLM system.
- Proven experience in writing installation procedures and effectively communicating with management.
- Experience in the technical supervision of designers and technicians.
The following experience would be an advantage:
- Experience in performing a variety of engineering tasks as well as working on various projects in parallel.
- Experience in working in an international and multidisciplinary team.
Technical competencies:
- Integration of mechanical systems.
- Production of 2D drawings and 3D models: ISO dimensioning and tolerancing knowledge of CATIA V5 or equivalent.
- Assembly and integration of infrastructure for detectors or experimental facilities.
Behavioural competencies:
- Achieving Results: delivering high quality work on time and fulfilling expectations Having a structured and organised approach towards work; being able to set priorities and plan tasks with results in mind.
- Working in Teams: working well in groups and readily fitting into a team; participating fully and taking an active role in team activities. Gaining trust and collaboration from others.
- Demonstrating Flexibility: adapting quickly and resourcefully to shifting priorities and requirements. Being willing to work on different projects simultaneously.
- Solving Problems: identifying defining and assessing problems taking action to address them. Anticipating obstacles; assessing alternative solutions in order to have a fallback plan. Producing workable and timely solutions that meet requirements.
Language skills:
Spoken and written English: ability to understand and speak in professional contexts. Ability to drawup technical procedures and/or technical reports and to make oral presentations. Basic knowledge of French or willingness to acquire such skills would be an advantage.
