The Deutsches Elektronen-Synchrotron DESY, with more than 2900 employees at the Hamburg and Zeuthen locations, is one of the world's leading research centers. At the heart of the research is the decoding of the structure and function of matter, from the smallest particles in the universe to the building blocks of life. In this way, DESY contributes to solving the great questions and pressing challenges of science, society, and economy. With state-of-the-art research infrastructure, interdisciplinarily designed research platforms, and international networks, DESY possesses a highly attractive working environment in the scientific, technical, and administrative fields, as well as for the training of highly qualified young talent.

The particle physics program of DESY includes important contributions to the LHC experiments ATLAS and CMS, to the Belle-II experiment in Japan, and to the preparation of future experiments. The DESY CMS group is one of the largest groups in the collaboration. The activities of the DESY CMS researchers range from the development and construction of detectors to contributions to data acquisition (monitoring and alignment) and data analysis. For the future CMS-tracker detector, the DESY CMS group is responsible for the construction of one of the two endcaps and is looking for an electronics technician for devices and systems for this purpose.
