ITEAM strengthens its applied photonics team with two new positions

The Photonics Research Lab (PRL) at iTEAM is expanding its Fiber Sensors group with new research and technical talent. Two positions are currently open, focused on the development of applied photonic technologies:

PhD in Chemistry, Chemical Engineering, or Materials Science
Specialized in the development and characterization of polymeric and ceramic materials, as well as functional coating processes.

Industrial or Mechanical Engineer
With experience in system design, prototyping and integration, process automation, and the development of mechatronic solutions.

Both positions will be integrated into a highly specialized R&D environment, contributing to projects with direct application in sectors such as telecommunications, industry, and advanced sensing.

We offer the opportunity to join a multidisciplinary team, with access to state-of-the-art scientific and technical infrastructure, and to participate in technology developments with real-world impact, including technology transfer initiatives and spin-off creation.
