Operator (BE-OP-TI-2021-107-LD)

Introduction

Operator (Technical Infrastructure) in the Beams Department  (BE), Operations Group  (OP), Technical infrastructure Section  (TI). As part of the shift crew, the TI Operator is responsible for monitoring CERN's key technical infrastructure. The systems involved include electricity distribution, cooling and ventilation systems and making sure that important safety systems are in perfect working order. It is the job of the TI Operator to spot problems and take corrective actions to avoid beam stops and interruptions to the physics experiments. In case of a major problems, such as a site wide power cut, the TI Operator on shift manages the different call out services respecting the overall CERN priorities.

Functions

As a Technical Infrastructure Operator, you will primarily be based in the central control room - working on a shift rota running 365 days per year and 24 hours per day, monitoring systems and performing remote diagnostics and interventions. In between shifts, all technicians have other activities, using the expert skills they already have to improve our systems or processes.

You will:

• Monitor and operate systems using an integrated control system federating all important system alerts in the field of cooling, ventilation, electricity, access control and many more technical systems at CERN.
• Perform remote diagnostics and operation of the infrastructure systems using specialised and general-purpose Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) systems.
• Create and edit work orders, logbook entries and event reports concerning current events for distribution to the different teams involved in maintenance activities.
• Communicate with users, physicists and maintenance teams via telephone or in person to get and give information about system incidents and to coordinate interventions as required.
• Help the team implement new procedures, tools and improvement.
