At Qurv, we create a paradigm shift in computer vision-based applications (automotive, XR, and robotics) by developing mass-deployable infrared image sensors that can enable machines to see better and more, unlocking new functionalities.
We are looking for a world-class Quantum Dot Synthesis and Ink Formulation Process Engineer to join our Barcelona team and work together to push the limits of our wide-spectrum image sensor technology. You will be working closely together with process, integration and device functions to invent and provide cutting-edge colloidal quantum dot materials that will play a significant role in shaping the company's future technologies.
How a day might look like :
- Design experimental strategies and perform lab work including the synthesis of colloidal quantum dots and formulation of inks for optoelectronic applications.
- Collaborate with the R&D team to produce samples and optimize colloidal quantum dots and ink formulations for optoelectronic devices.
- Develop metrology procedures and correlate end-of-line data to process parameters.
- Develop / improve quality control methodology for incoming and outgoing materials.
- Gather specifications from internal customers to deliver high-quality products and prototypes.
- Report results to cross-functional teams for feedback and further requirements definition.
- Work as needed with teams in design, process, equipment support, testing, and failure analysis to fully understand device performance and potential failure modes.
- Contribute towards transfer to waferscale processes and process troubleshooting.
- Drive to improve yield, streamline processes, and decrease cycle times.
- Work together with suppliers and industrial / academic collaborators on innovative processes and raw materials.
- Acquire and start-up synthesis equipment.
- Contribute to innovation and write invention disclosures.
- Help maintain and promote a safe working environment.
About you :
- In-depth knowledge and hands-on experience in colloidal quantum dot synthesis, ligand exchange processes and ink formulation for optoelectronic device applications.
