Applications are invited for a Laboratory and Electronics Technician position in the Department of Physics at the University of Oxford to support advanced research activities in integrated terahertz (THz) technologies.
The project will unite novel nanowire terahertz technology from Oxford with unique custom-designed integrated circuits from project partners in Germany, to create sensitive terahertz receivers. Our objective is to create multipixel arrays for applications in non-destructive testing, remote sensing and quality control.
The successful candidate will provide specialist technical expertise in electronics, RF systems, device integration and experimental laboratory systems within a multidisciplinary research environment. The role involves applying substantial technical knowledge and practical expertise to develop, assemble, test and optimise bespoke electronic and optoelectronic systems supporting frontier THz instrumentation research. The postholder will contribute specialist technical input to the design and implementation of experimental systems and will work closely with academic staff, research staff and external collaborators to deliver technical solutions to complex research requirements.
You should hold a degree, HND, NVQ4, BTEC Advanced Award or equivalent professional experience in electronics, physics, engineering, or a related technical discipline, with a strong background in advanced laboratory-based research or technical development activities within a scientific or engineering environment. Demonstrating an excellent practical problem-solving ability, strong communication and collaborative skills, and ability to work independently within a research environment is essential for this role.
