Circuits and Laser Systems - Researcher - PhD Degree

Description

• Design control circuits for laser systems and optical components. Implement laser safety protocols and interlock systems. Develop precision timing and synchronization circuits for chip-scale laser applications.
• Work with vendors to build and test prototype circuits and assemblies. Conduct performance validation and troubleshooting. Document test procedures and results
• Design compact, robust packaging solutions for electronic assemblies. Ensure electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) and shielding requirements. Collaborate with team mates on enclosure design, thermal control and integration.
• Design and develop custom electronic circuits for proof-of-concept devices and demonstration units, create schematic diagrams, PCB layouts, and component specifications. Perform circuit simulation and analysis using industry-standard tools.

Requirements

• Simulation: Knowledge of SPICE, LTSpice, or equivalent circuit simulation tools
• Familiarity with 3D modeling software (SolidWorks, AutoCAD).
• Programming: Familiarity with programming (C/C++, Python) to drive circuits via lab bench
• Ability to work within and contribute to cross-disciplinary research teams with key deliverables including prototypes, intellectual property, and publications (an active interest in publishing is highly desirable)
• CAD Tools: Experience with Altium Designer, KiCAD, or similar PCB design software
• Willingness to participate in, support, and contribute to work-place safety culture and activities.
• Background in RF/microwave circuit integration.
• Circuit Design: Proficiency in analog and digital circuit design, mixed-signal systems, understanding of RF
• Experience with integrated photonic interconnect.
• Experience with rapid prototyping techniques (3D printing, CNC machining).
• Test Equipment: Proficiency with oscilloscopes, spectrum analyzers, network analyzers, and laser measurement equipment
• Familiarity with work style of research institutes.
• Required minimum education and experience: Doctorate in Electrical Engineering or other applicable area, or Masters in Electrical Engineering with equivalent experience.
