The Role

As a Senior Research Engineer, you will serve as a technical pillar within our R&D division. You will oversee research initiatives across key focus technological areas, spanning thermal imaging, gas analysis, particulate analysis and chemical analysis in lithography environments and data centres.

In addition to driving your own advanced research, you will be responsible for translating high-level R&D strategy into actionable experimental roadmaps and overseeing the research direction and execution of associate engineers.

Key Responsibilities

  • Team Leadership & Research Direction: Lead a dedicated team of associate engineers within your assigned domain (Thermal, Gas, Particulate, or Chemical Analysis).
  • Domain Research Execution: Oversee the R&D roadmap for early threat detection hardware and analytics tailored specifically for Lithography Cleanrooms and/or Data Centre Infrastructure.
  • Cross-Functional Integration: Coordinate findings across teams to feed unified detection algorithms into our central AI monitoring platform.

  • Research Supervision: Proven track record of guiding, directing, and evaluating the research work of junior or associate engineers.
  • Cross-Disciplinary Technical Capability: Ability to bridge hardware and software concepts—such as physical sensor networks, electrical infrastructure, and machine learning models.
  • Language Proficiency: Professional proficiency in written and spoken English; working knowledge of Cantonese or Mandarin is advantageous for local team coordination.
  • Location: Based in or willing to relocate to Hong Kong.

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.
