Job Description

Laser Development Engineer – Ultrafast DPSS Lasers

Help shape the next generation of ultrafast lasers for industrial micromachining. As part of Coherent’s Advanced R&D Group, you’ll develop laser concepts and turn them into high-performance, reliable products. You’ll work with an international team in a supportive environment that values collaboration, professional development and a good sense of humour.

What You’ll Be Doing

  • Developing new lasers and improving existing products, modules, components and related products for industrial applications.
  • Designing high-end laser sources and optics for ultrafast pulses, including nonlinear optics for frequency conversion from the mid-infrared to ultraviolet.
  • Planning and managing development projects, including contributing to requirements specifications and preparing progress, interim and final reports.
  • Designing, building and testing development prototypes.
  • Defining specifications for laser characterisation equipment and documenting measurement protocols.
  • Designing and verifying optical and electronic test fixtures.
  • Conducting and documenting short- and long-term tests, and preparing and presenting development results.
  • Working with international colleagues and partners in the US and Asia.
  • Supporting international customers and suppliers with technical problem-solving.

What You’ll Bring

  • A Diploma or Master’s degree in Physics; a PhD is preferred.
  • Strong knowledge of laser technology and hands-on laboratory experience with complex, high-power picosecond or femtosecond laser systems, amplifiers, and infrared, visible or ultraviolet lasers.
  • Engineering experience with diode-pumped solid-state lasers.
  • A strong understanding of laser measurement and characterisation techniques.
  • Excellent English and strong communication skills.
  • Experience in an industrial environment or education in electronics would be an advantage.
  • Familiarity with simulation tools and mathematical software would also be an advantage.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
