Project Research Engineer Position in Integrated Photonics

ICFO is offering a Project Engineer position to a well-qualified, highly motivated and dynamic young scientist who wishes to enhance his / her scientific career in a friendly and stimulating environment.

The successful candidate will be joining the Optoelectronics group led by Prof. Dr. Valerio Pruneri .

The group has experience in the study and development of new advanced materials, devices, and systems for information and communication technologies, particularly displays, image sensors, and secure communications. The main drive of the group is to carry out applied research which bridges academia and industry, by developing fundamental ideas with great potential for revolutionizing future photonic products.

The candidates will work on projects related to classical and quantum photonic integrated circuits (PICs) and must have experience in the design, simulation, characterization, or packaging of PICs. The aim of the work will be the development of next-generation PIC-based technologies, ranging from classical photonic processing to quantum communication, sensing, and metrology. On-chip quantum key distribution transmitters, entangled pair sources, and single photon sources are also important topics in the group.

The group is currently involved in several European projects.

How to Apply

Suitable candidates are requested to submit :

• Presentation letter with a declaration of interest,
• The contact e-mail of two potential referees.

Candidates will be assessed as they apply, and the call will remain open until the suitable candidate is identified.
