Research Engineer – Optical forces on metasurfaces (SRTT-Q.InC)

We are developing a new class of optomechanical which uses meta surfaces for optical control of mechanical motion. These systems would be powerful tools for sensing, fundamental physics, and quantum technologies. We are seeking a research engineer to help build the experimental system. This role involves hands on lab work such as:<br><br><ul><li> S et up and align optical systems.</li><li> Assemble and maintain vacuum systems.</li><li> Assist with electronics work and data acquisition.</li><li> Run and maintain experiments to characterise mechanical motion and optical interactions.<br><br></li></ul><strong> Requirements: <br><br></strong><ul><li> Bachelors or Masters degree in Physics, Optics, Engineering, or related fields.</li><li> Experience in any of the following is a plus (but not mandatory); Optics & lasers, Vacuum systems and/or Electronics.</li><li> Programming (such as python, Mathematica, or MATLAB).</li><li> W e will provide training and supervision, so candidates do not need to have prior experience.<br><br></li></ul><strong> About us: <br><br></strong>The Quantum Sensing and Metrology pillar works at the interface of optics, quantum sensing, and fundamental physics. We are based at the Quantum Innovation Centre (Q.InC), A*STAR, and collaborate closely with researchers across Singapore and internationally.<br><br>https://www.a-star.edu.sg/qinc/research/quantum-sensing---metrology
