Production engineer Vacatures in Rotterdam

Job Description

Do you want to work with cutting-edge quantum technology? Do you have a solid technical background and do you work with a lot of perseverance and accuracy? Do you want be part of a diverse and dynamic scale-up company? Then we invite you to read on and apply!

IN SHORT

Single Quantum (singlequantum.com) makes the world's fastest and most-sensitive light-detection systems limited only by the laws of physics!

As a scale- up company, we are growing steadily in both size and presence worldwide. We are looking for a dedicated engineer to join our test team as a Detector Test Engineer in our optics lab.

We are looking for a full-time engineer to be based at our headquarters in Delft.

WHAT YOU WILL BE DOING

As our Production Test Engineer (Detector Test Engineer), you will be responsible for the testing, characterization and validation of our detector chips, which are the core of our superconducting nanowire single photon detector (SNSPD) systems.

You will be joining an international and innovative environment and will be working in our Production Labs in Delft, alongside our team of physicists and engineers.

Your main tasks include :

Perform optical and electrical characterization of SNSPDs by using a variety of lab equipment.

• Execute quality control and performance validation of the complete systems.
• Check and maintain characterization setups to ensure accuracy.
• Mount detectors and check the performance of the cryostats.
• Be a part of the feedback cycle involving Nanofabrication, Mounting and Bonding, and Test teams to develop the best photon detectors possible.

You will work closely with other team-members, but the actual testing is performed independently. You will need real tenacity and great accuracy to follow through. You will play an important part in getting our systems on time to our scientific customers all over the world, and in helping the company reach its detector quality goals.

We are in the process of developing a more rigorous and automated fashion of testing. We will also ask you to contribute and assist with these processes in order to optimize and reduce testing time and thus further decrease production time and costs.
