As our Beam Dynamics #Physicist, you’ll shape the design and optimization of the accelerator beamline — ensuring stability, efficiency, and performance. You’ll dive into simulations, crunch the physics, and work closely with engineers to bring the beam from concept to operation. __ Main responsibilities · Develop and optimize beam optics for high-intensity proton accelerators from ion source to target location. · Perform beam dynamics simulations (including space charge, nonlinear effects, halo formation). · Define tolerances, error budgets, and beam quality requirements. · Collaborate with magnet engineers, RF specialists, and mechanical teams to ensure coherent system design. · Analyze experimental data and benchmark against simulations. · Identify and solve beam-related challenges during commissioning and operation. · Contribute creative ideas to push performance, safety, and innovation further. · Participate and support machine learning projects with the goal to improve and facilitate beam operation of particle accelerator facilities. __ Qualifications and professional achievements · PhD in Physics, Accelerator Physics, or a closely related field. · 2 to 5 years’ solid experience in beam dynamics modelling and accelerator design, particularly cyclotrons. · Proficiency with simulation tools (MAD-X/BMAD, TraceWin, PyORBIT, IMPACT, OPAL, or similar). · Strong understanding of collective effects, lattice design, and accelerator physics fundamentals. · Practical experience with accelerator experiments or commissioning is a big plus. · A problem-solving mindset: proactive, rigorous, and hands-on when needed. · Experience with advanced diagnostic tools and AI-based data analysis for beam performance. · Excellent communication skills in English (French and/or German is a plus). __ Why Join Us · Impact: Your physics directly enables a breakthrough in safe, clean energy. · Ownership: From design to commissioning, you’ll have real influence on critical systems. · Culture: Join a small, ambitious team where your ideas matter. · Growth: Work at the frontier of accelerator physics and help shape a technology with world-changing potential. If you’re excited about taking beam physics from the simulation room to a working accelerator — and want to see your work make a real impact — we’d love to meet you. __ Terms And Conditions · Start date: As soon as possible, ideally Q1 2026 · Location: Vernier, GE, Switzerland · Contract: Full-time, permanent employment contract · Package: We offer competitive remuneration and social security, accident/disability insurance and pension plans; one day per week work from home, as well as five weeks paid vacation.
