Magnet Analyst Io0562

Fusion, the nuclear reaction that powers the sun and the stars, is a promising long-term option for a sustainable, non-carbon emitting global energy supply.

The ITER Organization (IO), based in the southern France, welcomes best talents who can together prepare the way to this new energy in a truly multi-cultural work environment.

As the IO attracts and retains people coming from a vast array of different backgrounds and cultures, discrimination and exclusion cannot be tolerated. The IO believes it is our diverse perspectives and background that gives unique strength and value to the ITER mission, regardless of race, member nation, gender, religion, status, sexual orientation, or disability - all are welcome and respected at ITER.

ITER CARE Values (Collaboration / Accountability / Respect / Excellence):
We perform our work with care, we care for the well-being of colleagues, our families and ourselves, and we care about the health of the planet for generations to come. CARE drives our work and our behaviors at ITER.

**Overview**

**Are you looking for an exciting opportunity at the heart of an ambitious fusion energy project?** Join our Assembly & Commissioning Support Division (ACSD), within the Engineering Service Department (ESD) as a Magnet Analyst.

As a **Magnet Analyst,** your goals will include:

- Defining and justifying the different detection thresholds to trigger the magnets quench protection units during Magnet Cold Test Facility (MCTF) and ITER Tokamak operation.
- Performing and verifying thermal, thermo-hydraulic and electromagnetic analysis for the ITER magnets and their supporting systems and providing results analysis to support model verification through qualification tests.
- Ensuring deliverables are produced according to project schedule and budget, within a quality-assured environment that requires rigor and a systematic way of working.
- Developing, under the leadership of your discipline manager, your skills and experience for the benefit of the Project.
- The ESD provides the required skilled engineering resources or services, which are necessary for the successful completion of the ITER Project._
- ACSD provides technical support to the ITER project in the field of magnet protection studies for this test bench but also for the ITER magnetic system, coil procurement and cold tests. Being a member of the ACSD, you will have the opportunity to share and develop your expertise with other colleagues working in the same discipline on different ITER units._

**Key Duties & Responsibilities**

**Primary Responsibilities**:

- Defines and develops the overall strategy for magnet quench protection and related methodologies/procedures and studies for:

- Magnets quench protection studies to define and justify the different detection thresholds (voltage, thermal, hydraulic signals etc.) to trigger the magnets quench protection units.
- Thermal, thermal-hydraulic and electromagnetic studies for the Magnet delivery project, including place contracts, if needed, to perform these studies.
- Leads analysis of in-factory and on-site test results of the ITER magnets or components, including the quantitative assessment of the impact of deviations from the design.
- Verifies the instrumentation related to the quench protection used for both magnets and cryogenic system using thermal or electromagnetic analyses and proposes corrective actions as necessary to solve issues.
- Develops and manages contracts or task agreements with DAs, including proposing solutions to maximize quality and reliability of analysis and reports provided.

**Additional Responsibilities**:

- Leading all the operational performance predictions for the magnet component in the areas of quench protection and detection.
- Contributes to the detailed test procedures to test the TF and PF1 coils in ITER, and participates to these tests.
- Contributes to the preparation of the magnet integrated commissioning with dedicated thermal and electromagnetic analyses to support the magnet integrated commissioning plans, and procedures.
- Contributes to the Safety analyses requested by the French Safety regulator with respect to nuclear operation.

**Please note that job descriptions cannot be exhaustive, and the staff member may be required to undertake other duties, which are broadly in line with the above primary responsibilities.**

**Experience & Competencies**

**Essential**:

- **Extensive experience** in developing and using thermal hydraulic an
