Job Description
Your responsibilitiesCERN’s ATLAS experiment is seeking a talented Software Developer to join the Data Processing team. In this role, you will contribute to the development and optimization of the ACTS (A Common Tracking Software) toolkit--an experiment- agnostic track reconstruction software designed for high performance in the HL-LHC era and beyond. The ACTS toolkit is integral to the ATLAS experiment’s strategy for offline and Event Filter track reconstruction for Run 4 and future operations.
Key Responsibilities:
- Develop, optimize, and maintain ACTS-based track finding, fitting, and vertex reconstruction software.
- Focus on adapting and fine-tuning the software for the ATLAS Inner Tracker (ITk) to ensure optimal performance.
- Lead and coordinate efforts to enhance the computational and physics performance of ACTS, supporting the ATLAS HL-LHC physics program.
- Serve as a core member of the ACTS development team, managing parts of the development and deployment processes.
- Provide advisory and supervision support to junior colleagues within ATLAS and collaborating institutions.
Your profile
Skills
- Proven experience with modern C++ programming techniques.
- Understanding of track reconstruction concepts, algorithms, and their efficient implementation in High-Energy Physics (HEP) experiments.
- Proficiency in software development tools and practices within a Linux environment.
- Ability to communicate opinions, ideas, and suggestions convincingly, clearly, and in a logical and structured manner, staying on topic.
Eligibility criteria:
- You are a national of a CERN Member or Associate Member State .
- You have a professional background in Experimental Physics (or a related field) and have either:
- a Master’s degree with 2 to 6 years of post-graduation professional experience;
- or a PhD with no more than 3 years of post-graduation professional experience.
- You have never had a CERN fellow or graduate contract before.

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.
