The European Synchrotron, the ESRF, is an international research centre based in Grenoble, France. Through its innovative engineering, pioneering scientific vision and a strong commitment from its 700 staff members, the ESRF is recognised as one of the top research facilities worldwide. Its particle accelerator produces intense X-ray beams that are used by thousands of scientists each year for experiments in diverse fields such as biology, medicine, environmental sciences, cultural heritage, materials science, and physics. Supported by 22 countries, the ESRF is an equal opportunity employer and encourages diversity.

Duties and responsibilities

You will join a team of engineers in charge of advanced analyses/calculations and mechanical projects of new equipment for the ESRF particle accelerator complex and experimental stations (beamlines).
