Working at CERN in Geneva, IL: 1 Employee Job Reviews by Real Employee working in Geneva, IL Area

"I'm honored to work at CERN, one of the biggest scientific organizations in the world. I was a part of the Data Acquisition and Trigger (TDAQ) group of the CMS experiment, where I worked with FPGAs. My work involved configuration and Booting techniques within SoC FPGA technology, building Linux distributions for their processor systems, and implementing Real-Time Machine Learning algorithms on them. Furthermore, I also contributed to the design of Real Time Muon Trigger System also known as "Scouting" that can scout the online data coming from Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at 250 MHz. The aim of the project is to build a prototype system for the replacement of Level-1 Trigger of the CMS experiment future. By gaining full control over SoC FPGAs, we can get rid of all the CPUs, lying in the underground CMS cavern."
