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.
We are seeking individuals who love solving complex engineering problems and have a passion for optics.
As an Optical Physicist, you will apply your engineering and physics experience to the design of highly complex devices and hardware, aiming to provide a step-change in innovation. Your work will involve generating new ideas and inventions around advanced technologies and taking them from initial concept to manufacturing.
The devices you will work on are optics-based, including propagation, imaging systems, fibre optics, high power and ultrafast lasers, fluorescence imaging, and the interaction of light with real-world surfaces.
You will join a well-established team of engineers, scientists, and innovators, with new projects on the horizon as the company invests heavily in research and development.
To be considered for this exciting position, you need experience in developing optics-based technologies within a commercial setting, a strong academic background, first principles knowledge, and excellent pen-and-paper maths skills. This role is in the defence industry, meaning it is open to British nationals only due to security clearance criteria.
In exchange for your skills and expertise, the company offers a highly competitive package along with 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.
