Junior Systems Integration Engineer (C++, python, middleware) (BE-ICS-TMA-2024-216-GRAE)
The BE-ICS group develops solutions and provides support for large and medium scale industrial control systems, promoting their use. Support covers the domains of CERN experiments, technical infrastructure and the accelerators. BE-ICS runs the CERN-wide OPC support service, which provides systems integration for a varied range of electronic devices, both commercial off-the-shelf and custom-made devices, for integration in large scale control systems using the OPC-UA industrial standard (IEC62541).
You will contribute to the goal of providing reliable and robust OPC-UA integration components to CERN’s user community. Primarily you will use, extend and support a python-based OPC-UA component validation tool for this.

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.
