Ingénieur.e Logiciels GMAO, PLM

Located on the Paris-Saclay plateau, about 20 kilometers from the capital, the SOLEIL synchrotron is one of France's leading research facilities. Since it began operating in 2008, it has served the national and international scientific communities. Research conducted at SOLEIL covers a wide range of scientific and industrial fields — including physics, biology, chemistry, materials science, environmental science, Earth sciences, and cultural and natural heritage — all connected to current societal challenges. Experiments carried out on the beamlines rely on the use of synchrotron light emitted by electrons accelerated to nearly the speed of light within a storage ring. SOLEIL is jointly supervised by the CNRS and the CEA and offers its staff a dynamic, innovative, multidisciplinary, and international working environment.

At the forefront of technology, SOLEIL II is an ambitious project designed to provide new opportunities for scientific and industrial research. SOLEIL II consists of a major upgrade of the existing infrastructure and aims to significantly improve the performance of electron accelerators and beamlines. It is designed to address major current and future societal challenges, particularly in areas such as advanced materials research, energy and sustainable development, health and well-being, and the environment.

Construction work on the SOLEIL II project began in 2024, marking the start of a phase of development and technological innovation. In parallel, the existing facility will remain operational until the fall of 2028. SOLEIL II is scheduled to start operations in 2030, with a gradual ramp-up phase continuing until 2035.

As part of the SOLEIL II upgrade, to which the Management Systems Integration (ISG) group is contributing, we are looking for a CMMS/PLM Software Engineer to oversee the redesign of the CMMS and operational management for the SOLEIL II project.

The CMMS/PLM Software Engineer will work within the Information Systems and Digital Division (DSIN) under the responsibility of the ISG Group Manager.

The ISG group is made up of five permanent staff and two apprentices. It is responsible for expressing requirements through implementation:

  • Administration management tools,
  • Technical management tools,
  • Project management and light line user management tools,
  • The SOLEIL data warehouse and associated Business Intelligence (BI) applications,
  • Collaborative tools.

 

Context and missions

We are looking for a CMMS/PLM Software Engineer capable of working on the development and maintenance of the CMMS application for technical and functional feasibility studies, as well as on the operational management of the PLM. He/she will join a multidisciplinary team of enthusiastic, motivated experts who are expected to work with a high degree of autonomy. He/she will participate in:

  • The integration of CMMS tools and other databases into the new architecture that will be deployed in the SOLEIL II project.
  • Supporting the scientists in the operation of the software implemented.
  • The operation and analysis of data from the CMMS to support corrective and evolutionary maintenance.
  • He/she will work closely with a member of the group on projects implemented as part of the SOLEIL II information system overhaul program.
