Job Description

The candidate is expected to take a leadership role in the ongoing development of an independent optical clock system in collaboration with the National Metrology Centre (NMC). The primary aim is to develop a prototype system that can be transported out of the lab for field tests and ultimately moved to NMC. The candidate is expected to mentor PhD students in the lab and liaise with external companies/workshops for necessary parts and product development.

Job Requirements

• PhD in Physics with a strong background in atomic physics;
• Knowledge of computer hardware control is expected;
• Some knowledge of ion traps and electronics is preferred but not essential.
