Senior Electronics & Photonics Systems Integrator

QSA Technology; Nederland; Hybrid; EUR 60,000 - 90,000; Full time

Job summary

QSA Technology in Leiden is seeking an Electronics & Systems Integration Engineer to own the electrical signal chain around photonic PUF chips, from drive electronics to digitisation. You will bridge our photonic chips with the rest of the system and help bring more integration in-house.

The role demands an MSc in EE or Applied Physics and hands-on FPGA/embedded electronics experience, with a focus on timing-sensitive signal chains. Hybrid work is possible with occasional travel to Enschede.

Qualifications

• Master's degree in Electrical Engineering, Applied Physics, or related field.
• Experience with FPGA and embedded electronics design (VHDL/Verilog or high-level synthesis).
• Proven ability to mature lab-bench electronics to deployable systems.
• Comfort working with optical hardware and timing-sensitive signal chains.
• Independent, hands-on, entrepreneurial working style.

Responsibilities

• Design and build drive electronics for the PUF module.
• Develop timing circuits to synchronize challenge generation and digitisation.
• Design readout electronics: photodetector front-ends, amplifiers and digitisers.
• Develop FPGA-based drivers and controllers as technology evolves.
• Support integration of subsystems into a robust system.
• Document designs and test results for product development.
