High-Level Trigger Calibration Scientist
CERN · Geneva, Switzerland
About this role
The Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS) experiment’s High-Level Trigger, as deployed during the LHC’s 2009-2026 running period, reconstructs high-energy proton-proton collision events using detector conditions that often lag behind the best available calibrations. Closing that gap by delivering near-real-time, offline-quality calibrations to the online system, also known as “Optimal Calibrations,” is one of the central challenges of High-Luminosity (HL)-LHC operations, and it is the challenge this role will face. This position is part of the Next-Generation Trigger programme .
