Your responsibilities

ATLAS is one of the world's largest scientific collaborations, bringing together thousands of people to explore the frontiers of physics. Supporting such a large collaboration requires careful management of ATLAS collaboration information and several of its workflows, including members' appointments, employment records, publications, speaker nominations, authors' lists, and institute contributions.

The Glance system provides user-friendly access to multiple databases, making it easy to retrieve, insert, and update data independently of technology or modelling. It powers several key tools, including Membership, Appointments, Speakers, Analysis Follow-Up, and Conference Notes, all of which continue to evolve to meet the collaboration's needs.

In this role, you will work at the heart of ATLAS operations, connecting developers, management, and users to deliver reliable, high-impact tools that support the collaboration worldwide.

Responsibilities:

• Coordinate Glance activities, serving as a bridge between developers, users, and ATLAS management.
• Set priorities, define requirements with management, and contribute to the design and implementation of solutions.
• Ensure high-quality, reliable tools using modern development and integration practices.
• Support and mentor new team members, helping them integrate smoothly.
• Collaborate with colleagues from other LHC experiments who also use the Glance system.

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.
