Hands-On Laser Process Engineer (On-Site, 6-Month)

Redline Group; Abingdon; In loco; GBP 32.000 - 42.000; Tempo pieno

Descrizione del lavoro

Redline Group is seeking a Laser Application Support Engineer for a 6-month fixed-term contract in Abingdon, Oxfordshire. This hands-on role covers laser applications, machine commissioning, alignment and process development in a specialist engineering environment.

You will work closely with customers and internal teams to tailor laser systems, design experiments, and transfer procedures for large production runs. On-site, with potential for extension or permanent conversion.

Competenze

• Practical, hands-on experience working with lasers and laser-based machinery, ideally within an engineering, manufacturing, laboratory or R&D environment.
• Experience with laser alignment, laser applications or using laser systems to process materials. CO2 laser experience would be highly advantageous.
• A practical understanding of complete laser systems and machinery, rather than experience solely within the manufacture of laser sources or components.
• A degree in Physics or a related technical discipline would be advantageous, particularly for graduates with relevant practical laser experience.
• A hands-on, proactive approach with the ability to work experimentally, solve technical problems and develop new processes.

Mansioni

• Working on practical laser applications and collaborating with end-users to tailor laser systems and processes to specific requirements.
• Supporting the commissioning and alignment of optical machines, ensuring systems are correctly set up and operational.
• Designing and carrying out experiments to establish the appropriate laser process conditions to meet customer requirements.
• Carrying out laser alignment and working with laser beams in a practical, hands-on environment.
• Using lasers to process materials, including material removal applications and the development of new laser processes.
• Working with CO2 lasers and micromachining systems to support R&D activities, customer samples and process development.
• Designing, documenting and implementing procedures to ensure successful processes can be transferred to machine operators and used for larger production batches.
