Mechanical Assembler (M/F)

Mechanical Assembler (M/F)

Context

Within the Engineering / Technology department, you join a team responsible for the assembly, installation and operational maintenance of the organisation's complex mechanical components. You take over from a colleague to ensure continuity of operations and ongoing projects.

• Precision assembly and adjustment: Assemble, adjust and align complex mechanical sub-assemblies (superconducting magnets, RF cavities, vacuum chambers, detectors) respecting very tight tolerances (order of hundredths or microns).

• On-site installation: Participate in the transfer, positioning and anchoring of equipment in the LHC tunnel or experimental caverns.

• Maintenance and troubleshooting: Perform preventive and corrective maintenance of mechanical subsystems during technical stops (Technical Stops / Shutdowns).

• Basic inspection and metrology: Use precision measuring tools (micrometre, dial gauge, measuring arm) to validate assembly conformity.

• Touch-ups and conventional machining: Carry out mechanical adjustments at the workbench or on conventional machines (milling, turning, drilling) if necessary.

• Compliance with strict standards: Strictly apply ultra-high vacuum (UHV), cleanroom, cryogenics procedures and radiological safety instructions.

• Education: Federal VET Diploma, Vocational Baccalaureate or BTS in precision mechanics, mechanical engineering or microtechnology.

• Experience: 3 to 5 years of experience in high-precision industrial mechanical assembly or machining/adjustment.

• Technical skills:

  • Expert reading of mechanical drawings and mastery of functional dimensioning (ISO/GD&T).

  • Proficiency in working in clean environments (ultra-high vacuum, cleanroom).

  • Certifications for lifting equipment and overhead cranes (a real plus).

• Languages: Proficiency in French or English, with operational ability to understand the other language (bilingual environment).

• Attributes: Extreme rigour, team spirit, good physical condition (work in confined spaces) and great autonomy to quickly take over the vacant position.

• Education: Level 5 / 6 in Mechanical Design (BTS CPI, BUT GMP or equivalent).

• CAD skills: Confirmed mastery of CATIA V5 / 3DEXPERIENCE and good practice of AutoCAD.

• Data management: Experience or knowledge of PDM SmartTeam is a significant asset.

• Technical know-how: Solid knowledge of material strength, manufacturing processes (machining, boiler making/welding) and safety rules related to lifting.

• Attributes: Methodical rigour, attention to detail and ability to work in a project team.
