GSI Helmholtzzentrum für Schwerionenforschung GmbH | Germany | 64xxx Darmstadt | Permanent position | Full time / Home office | Published since: 18.03.2026 on stepstone.de
Scientific-Technical Assistant Applied Physics and Electrical Engineering Reference Number: 26.48-6351 (m/f/d)
The GSI Helmholtz Centre for Schwerionenforschung in Darmstadt operates one of the leading particle accelerator systems for science. The new FAIR plant (Facility for Antiproton and Ion Research) is currently being built in international cooperation, one of the largest research projects worldwide. GSI and FAIR offer the opportunity to work in this international environment in a team that is working daily to conduct science at world level. The “Superconducting Magnets & Testing” (SCM) department is looking to strengthen its “Magnet Electrical Systems” group (SCM-MES) Scientific and Technical Employees*in (d/m/w) Applied Physics and Electrical Engineering Reference number: 26.48-6351 as an expert for superconducting FAIR accelerator components and associated protection systems. Within the framework of the FAIR project, appropriate facilities are to be conceptualized, validated and into the future accelerator system with its machines SIS100 or Super-FRS. Your scientific know-how to guide complex processes and your routined approach to testing, installation and commissioning will significantly contribute to the successful start of the FAIR plant. .
