Its mandate covers all activities from development to operation, including design, production and procurement, surface engineering and analysis, acceptance tests, control and monitoring.
The Insulation & Injector Vacuum Operation section (IVO) takes care of the operation and upgrade of vacuum systems that are essential for CERN accelerators, including those of cryostats of superconducting magnets and those of the Large-Hadron-Collider (LHC) injection chain.
The IVO section is also active in knowledge transfer programmes involving industries and other laboratories.FunctionsWithin the VSC Group of the TE Department, you will:
Carry out and organise operation, maintenance, repair, testing and modification of large vacuum systems for the LHC’s injectors and cryogenic equipment.Fault-find and elaborate repair solutions for complex vacuum systems, either during normal operation or in on-call service.Prepare and perform acceptance tests of vacuum equipment, interpret and report results by means of written documentation.Manufacture mechanical components, including prototypes, and seek new construction techniques and ways of using new vacuum materials and treatments.Prepare documentation for the manufacture, assembly, installation, and use of vacuum equipment, including orders with internal services and external contractors.QualificationsHigher technical diploma or equivalent relevant experience in the field of vacuum technology and mechanical fabrication.
