Your responsibilities
This position is part of the NextGen Triggers (NGT) project, a 5-year collaboration between LHC experiments and the CERN Research and Computing Departments. The project aims to leverage innovative Artificial Intelligence technologies and high-performance computing architectures to enhance trigger selection, data processing, and theoretical interpretation for LHC experiments. The insights gained will inform future detector development, data flows, and theoretical tools.
Join our team in developing new firmware and software for the real-time data processing system of the Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS) experiment, a major detector at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). The project involves upgrading the Level-1 (L1) trigger system to handle the high data rates expected in the future high-luminosity phase of the LHC. Additionally, we're exploring the implementation of a complementary system called L1 Data Scouting, which involves real-time data processing and analysis using FPGA-equipped boards.

What we offer
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.
