Headline We are ready to build this accelarator! Are you? Highlights be part of an international team developing a high‑power superconducting proton accelerator. steer the procurement process of several high‑power RF components. perform contract follow‑up with collaborators for the designed components. close collaboration with internal and external teams. once applicable, contribute to the installation, commissioning and operation of the accelerator. Job description Together with a team of ambitious engineers and researchers, SCK CEN aims to develop new medical radioisotopes to treat cancer patients and solve the nuclear waste issue through the MYRRHA project ( www.myrrha.be ). The first implementation phase of MYRRHA (commissioning scheduled to start in 2027) consists of a ≈170 m long, superconducting, high‑power proton accelerator with exceptional reliability and two target facilities for research into radioisotopes, radioactive ion beam physics and nuclear fusion reactor materials. To help achieve these ambitious goals, we are looking for a new team member to join the “Accelerator Mechanics Group” (ACM) to follow up the design, procurement and commissioning of the RF components for the particle accelerator (RF power couplers, RF tuners, RF transmission lines, circulators, …). While some accelerator components are still being designed, others are already being procured to be ready in time for installation starting in 2027. You will work closely with design engineers and physicists. With the support of accelerator system experts and ATS project officers, you will: follow up ongoing contracts for accelerator components, focusing on RF‑related elements. manage the in‑house manufacturing process for selected RF components. participate in test campaigns. prepare and maintain documentation for assigned components. take part in installation and commissioning once applicable. Job requirements Master’s degree in Industrial Engineering or equivalent. more than 4 years of experience as an engineer. familiarity with standardization of mechanical parts. experience with high‑power RF components is an asset. experience in systems engineering is an additional asset. familiarity with 3D CAD software (Creo, Ansys). experience writing technical documentation. fluent spoken and written English. self‑managing team player with attention to detail and a structured work approach.
Here's how to pick the right one and stand out in your application.

That number is real. WorkMundi's database shows 144,883 open engineer roles across the world. India has the most with 31,687 jobs, followed by the United States with 30,084. If you just finished reading one job ad and felt paralyzed by choice, you're not alone—but this scale is actually an advantage. It means you can afford to be selective.
Start by geography and language. The majority of engineer ads—117,837 of them—have the job posting text written in English. Use that as one filter, but remember: the ad text language tells you nothing about whether the role actually requires you to speak English day-to-day. Read the job description carefully. Then check which countries have the volume you're targeting. Singapore, Poland, and Australia round out the top five after India and the US.
Next, learn who's hiring. Accenture has posted 2,801 engineer roles. andurilindustries, speechify, and jobgether are also actively recruiting. If you're applying to one of these names, research their hiring patterns and interview style before you apply. That homework pays off.
When you interview, expect the question every engineer hears: 'Tell me about a time you had to debug a problem that wasn't in your job description.' Have a specific story ready—not a general one. Name the tools, the deadline pressure, and what you learned. Hiring managers listen for whether you see problem-solving as part of the role itself, not a favour.
