Job Description
The Photonic Pilot line

The PIXEurope pilot line, as a part of the EU Chips Act aims to develop and accelerate industrial adoption of photonic technologies. This initiative, executed by a pan-European network of some of the strongest research and technology organizations, will result in significant market disruption, enable the launch of new and affordable products powered by photonics. Including optical engines for energy efficient AI data centers, high-speed communication devices for future optical networks, biosensors for point-of-care patient monitoring, compact medical devices such as minimally invasive surgical and imaging systems.

sensors for rapid and precise food safety and quality monitoring and in-line process control; miniaturized energy-efficient sensors for mobile networks, the Internet-of-Things and autonomous vehicles; high-speed quantum computing devices and augmented and virtual reality systems. Key to the successful deployment of photonic solutions for these application areas is the development of scalable, high throughput test and reliability processes and systems.

You will be engaged in applied research and electronic-photonic test development activities in the course of PITC Metrology program, and working with the PIXEurope European consortium consisting of industry and research institutes in the field of integrated photonics.
