• Part of a start-up where growth on a company and individual level is the default

Your responsibilities

• Initiate and develop an R&D stream focused on micro-assembly and integration of fabricated components into experimental targets for in-house use.
• Characterization, metrology and quality control of assembled targets, to verify that the target specifications are met.
• Develop and optimize bonding and adhesive processes for micro-precision target component assembly.
• Coordinating multi-partner consortia and associated reporting: build and maintain collaborations with academic and industrial partners.
• Drafting of public funding applications.
• Mentor junior scientists and coordinate cross-functional teams.
• Documentation and reporting: write and oversee technical and safety documentation, protocols development, and contribute to internal, external, and funding-body reports.

What you bring

• 8+ years of experience in Mechanical Engineering, Precision Engineering, Physics, Materials Science, or a related field, with demonstrated seniority in an R&D environment.
• Experience in micro-assembly or sub-micrometric precision integration of multi-material components at micro scale (e.g. micro-/nano-manipulator, FIB, pick-and-place systems).
• Experience with metrology and characterization techniques, and quality control for assembled targets, such as scanning electron microscopy (SEM), optical or confocal microscopy, and computer tomography (CT).
• Experience with bonding techniques for target components using methods such as micro-soldering and different bonding processes (e.g. adhesive, eutectic, or diffusion bonding).
• Practical experience working with processes under inert atmosphere for sensitive or reactive materials.
• Experience working in ISO-classified cleanroom environments.
• A track record leading or contributing to multi-partner research or industrial collaborations.
• Experience leading or contributing to public funding applications, with a track record of awarded proposals.
• Providing technical leadership and mentoring junior scientists and engineers in an experimental environment with evolving priorities.
• Strong written and verbal communication skills in English, including technical writing for proposals and reports.

What sets you apart

• Experience in fusion, plasma physics, inertial confinement fusion (ICF), or energy systems.
• Familiarity with lab automation and the development of novel fabrication processes.
• Experience with cryogenic target fabrication or handling of cryogenic components.
