You will play a key role in ensuring that advanced simulation tools accurately reflect experimental behaviour of superconducting magnet systems. You will work closely with experimental test teams and simulation developers to validate, analyse and improve computational models, with particular emphasis on quench protection and ramp loss phenomena in Low-Temperature Superconductor (LTS) and High-Temperature Superconductor (HTS) magnets. You will contribute to design, performance evaluation and analysis of Quench Protection on several High Field Magnets (HFM) developed at CERN.
