Optical Physicist - Complex R&D - Cambridge
A leading technology innovator in the heart of Cambridge's tech hub is looking for an optical physicist to join their up-and-coming team of engineers and scientists.
Because of the nature of the work and the culture of the business, we are looking for people who love solving complex engineering problems and who have a passion for optics.
As an Optical Physicist, you will be applying your sound engineering and physics experience to the design of highly complex devices and hardware, all aiming to provide a step-change in innovation. Your work will involve coming up with new ideas and inventions around advanced technologies, and you will take your ideas from initial concept all the way through to manufacturing.
The types of devices that you will be working with are optics-based, including propagation, imaging systems, fibre optics, high power and ultrafast lasers, fluorescence imaging, and interaction of light with real-world surfaces.
You will be joining a well-established team of engineers, scientists, and innovators, and will also have new projects on the horizon as this company invests heavily in research and development.
To be considered for this exciting Optical Physicist role, you will need to have experience of developing optics-based technologies within a commercial setting, coupled with strong academic credentials, first principles knowledge, and excellent pen-and-paper maths skills. This role is in the defence industry, which means that the role is open to British candidates due to security clearance criteria.
In exchange for your skills and expertise, the company offers a highly competitive package as well as providing excellent career progression and training.
For more information, please call Matthew Lowdon of Newton Colmore Consulting or make an application, and one of our team will be in touch.
