Your responsibilities
We are excited to invite a motivated Network System Engineer to join our team and contribute to innovative projects. This role offers a unique opportunity to work with state-of-the-art networking equipment and help shape the future DAQ (Data Acquisition) system for the CMS experiment at CERN.
CMS, one of two general-purpose particle physics experiments at CERN’s Large Hadron Collider (LHC), relies on a sophisticated DAQ system to aggregate and process collision data. Looking ahead to the High Luminosity LHC upgrade (2029), you’ll help design a high-speed Ethernet-based network capable of managing 1,000 100Gb/s sources, aggregating to 200 nodes at 400Gb/s, and forwarding data to thousands of processing nodes.
If you’re passionate about networking and want to make a lasting impact, we’d love to hear from you!

What we offer
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.
