We are looking for a qualified Research Engineer to join our team in the development of mechatronic setups and prototypes under two projects. The Sensitive Industry project (code n.º 72261) concerns mechatronic modules for integration of flat optics for pattern projectors and lenses for compact camera systems. The DemosAxia project concerns the development of an interactive demonstrator of thin-film technology developed at INL, highlighting different fields of applicability (including microantenna-based NFC smart sensing tags), to be presented at international technology exhibitions. It includes training on technology transfer and a one month secondment at the Foundation for Research and Technology - Hellas (FORTH; in Greece). Job Duties The job duties will be the following: Design mechanical and electronic systems (i.E., ECAD, MCAD); Plan and develop physical prototypes for mechatronic and optical systems; Participate in technology transfer training activities. Mandatory Qualifications Education MSc degree in Electronics, Physics, Mechanics, or other relevant subject. Experience and Technical Skills Experience in mechatronic system development (e.G., robotics, adjustable objectives, imaging systems); Experience in mechanical CAD design (e.G., Inventor, SolidWorks) and rapid prototyping (e.G., CNC, 3D printing, laser cutting); Experience in setting up laboratory instruments for automatic characterisation; Experience in data analysis and scripting languages (e.G., Python, Matlab); Knowledge in electronics and PCB design (e.G., Altium). Preferred Qualifications Previous experience in development of mechanical modules for optical systems is valued; Previous experience in designing optomechanics for laboratory experiments is valued; Experience in building characterisation setups, including computer interfacing (e.G
