Job Description

Your responsibilities

Full-stack Developer (Angular / Java) for Accelerator Controls

As a Full-stack Developer you will join the Controls Software & Services Group within the Beams department. The team provides software solutions for the control and monitoring of all of the CERN particle accelerators, their transfer lines, associated experimental areas and various supporting technical infrastructure services.

In this position, you will participate in developing a low-code extension that allows limited scripting. This Extension will be part of the Web-based Rapid Application Development (WRAP) platform which is a no-code solution, helping users throughout CERN create applications specific to their needs but based on the common underlying control system. It is paramount to modernising the way users interact with the thousands of devices that make up the accelerator complex.

Specifically, you will:

• Participate in the development of this extension, with tasks ranging from defining the scripting semantics, to creating a user-friendly interface to interact with it;
• Work as part of a team with experienced and junior software engineers, following agile development practices, using a modern technology stack;
• Continue to work with the team on the development of other extensions and systems once this project is complete.

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.

Diversity has been an integral part of CERN’s mission since its foundation and is an established value of the Organization. Employing a diverse workforce is central to our success.
