Job Description The Fermilab Scientific Computing Division (SCD) seeks outstanding candidates for an Associate Scientist position working on the Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS) experiment at the CERN Large Hadron Collider (LHC). Fermilab has a strong and exciting research program on CMS. Fermilab is the home of the LHC Physics Center (LPC) and plays a leading role in physics analysis on CMS in the areas of searches for physics beyond the standard model, studies of the Higgs boson, and measurements of standard model processes. Fermilab is a Tier 1 computing center for CMS and has commitments to CMS computing in many areas including event processing, data operations, simulation and software. The successful candidate will work within a highly collaborative and inclusive team environment. The candidate will be expected to carry out creative and innovative analysis of data from the proton-proton collisions at CMS, and critical development, operation and/or management of projects on CMS software and computing for Fermilab. The development focus will be on on solving the software and computing challenges for High Luminosity LHC (HL-LHC). The appointment is for an initial term of three years, and can be extended for an additional three years, with an evaluation for a position without term usually occurring after a total of five years. The Associate Scientist position is roughly equivalent to an Assistant Professor at a university, and the initial appointment within the scientist track at Fermilab.
