Full Job Description

At [CERN](http://home.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. Introduction: The Engineering Department (EN) provides CERN with the Engineering expertise, Infrastructure Systems and Technical Coordination necessary for the design, installation, operation, maintenance and dismantling phases of the CERN accelerator complex and its experimental facilities. The position is within the Accelerator Coordination and Engineering ([EN-ACE](https://en.web.cern.ch/group/ace)) group, which coordinates the activities for the interventions and changes to the accelerators complex. It includes configuration & layout management, integration studies and maintenance of the related 3D-CAD representations, organisation and scheduling of programmed stops, management of the mid- and long-term schedule, worksites follow-up and management of accelerator facilities, and operational safety coordination. As a Planning and Scheduling Engineer in EN-ACE, you will plan and coordinate a wide range of technologies across CERN’s current and future accelerator complex. You will collaborate closely with domain experts to develop practical solutions for the installation and maintenance of complex equipment, contributing to the Engineering Department’s mission of supporting the full lifecycle of CERN’s infrastructure and future projects. Functions: * Coordinate all installation and maintenance activities for existing or future accelerators. * Produce baseline schedules ensuring all activities follow it, considering safety rules and quality standards. * Prepare all supporting documentation and
