Senior/ Principal Photonics Engineer
Devon
Salary: £65,000 - £70,000
( DOE) A global leader in optical design is looking for several new Photonics Engineers to join their rapidly growing R&D team developing products for a multitude of industries. Key Responsibilities: Design and develop world leading fibre-optics and photonic components and devices Be a part of a team that shapes a product development strategy that drives business growth and ensures market leading status Collaborate with a talented multidisciplinary team, including mechanical and electronic design engineers, product engineers, and technicians. Get hands-on with prototype builds - this means working with fusion rigs, fibre-optic splicing, mechanical/electrical assembly, and opto-electronic testing. Create and run test plans to ensure components are fully functional and environmentally reliable. Support design tweaks and manage engineering changes to improve existing products. Qualifications: Academic Background:
A 2:1 or above in Optics, Physics, or Engineering is essential; a PhD in a related area is a plus! Technical Expertise:
Good understanding and experience in optical fibres (single-mode, polarisation-maintaining, multi-mode, PCF, and multi-core) and their unique properties. Hands-on experience with glass processing techniques such as fibre optic tapering and fusion is desirable. Testing Skills:
Comfortable with optical testing processes and equipment, with a strong understanding of how to test fibres for performance and durability. Problem-Solving:
A natural problem solver who thrives on analysing and addressing complex technical challenges. Process Improvement:
Experience designing engineering techniques to maximise yield, reliability, and performance is advantageous. Organisation & Drive:
Well-organised with an eye for detail, able to handle tight deadlines with ease. Self-motivated and proactive. Communication:
Confident in communicating at all levels, both written and face-to-face. If you are interested in the position and think you have the skills required as a Photonics Engineer, please apply. For any questions, contact Sam May at (url removed) or call (phone number removed).
