Radiation Protection Technician (M/F)

Ref. 26-24-P-DIR-SAF

In a cutting-edge environment, some beamlines rely on radioactive sources for their calibration operations, while others involve the handling of radioactive samples. Radiation protection is therefore an essential element in the service of research.

Integrated into this team and supported by a radiation protection engineer, you will play a concrete and operational role on a daily basis. In this capacity, you will:

• Ensure the control, management, and traceability of radioactive samples and sources
• Perform the monitoring and analysis of dosimetry, both personal and environmental
• Participate in the calibration, maintenance, and operation of measurement equipment
• Ensure compliance with radiation protection requirements in experimental hutch areas and around X-ray generators
• Contribute to the radiological monitoring of accelerators, in close proximity to the facilities

Expected Profile You hold a degree from a higher technician level training program (Licence, Bachelor, BTS, DUT, or international equivalent) in radiation protection or a related field such as nuclear safety.

This position is aimed at both recent graduates and profiles with initial experience. Your motivation, technical skills, and personal qualities will be key assets for success in this role.

You possess solid foundations in radiation protection regulations and techniques, which you wish to put into practice and develop within a high-level scientific environment. Specific training on the ESRF facilities (accelerators and experimental hutches) will allow you to quickly increase your skills.

Rigorous, organized, and possessing a good team spirit, you enjoy demanding technical environments where precision, reliability, and a sense of responsibility are essential.

English, the working language of the ESRF, is an integral part of daily life. An operational level allowing communication in an international professional context is expected.
