Stäfa, Zürich, Schweiz Lumiphase Vollzeit
About the Project

We are a young and dynamic deep-tech startup founded in 2020 by experts who have developed a groundbreaking photonic technology in the laboratories of IBM Research in Zurich. Our technology is built on innovative materials with incredible optical properties, enabling faster and more energy-efficient communication.

Responsibilities

As an internship project, you will collaborate closely with R&D engineers to enhance our test capabilities. You will gain understanding of our electrical and optical testing hardware, learn about photonic characterization methods, and engage in both conceptual and practical lab work. This hands-on experience will provide you with a comprehensive background in industry-driven R&D activities.

  • Design and improvement of experimental setups for electrical or electro-optical characterization and robustness testing of integrated photonic devices.
  • Implementation of new test methods within these setups (instrument selection, integration, and measurement routine coding)
  • Design of PCBs for mechanical sample fixation and electrical routing.
  • Conducting measurements, analyzing data, and preparing documentation.
  • Engaging in hands-on lab tasks, such as setting up new instruments, installation of hardware components and samples into test chambers, or definition and execution of calibration routines.
Requirements

We are seeking a motivated candidate with a strong interest in electrical engineering and micro-scale photonics. Desired qualifications:

  • Interest in working with electrical and optical measurement equipment and designing lab setups for delicate semiconductor component testing.
  • Good Python programming skills for implementing test routines, communicating with measurement instruments and data analysis. Experience with Git and SQL is an advantage.
  • Experience in using PCB design and/or CAD software is an advantage.
  • Good communication skills, team spirit, and a desire to contribute within a dynamic deep-tech startup.
  • Enrolled to Master's or Bachelor's program in electrical or mechanical engineering, mechatronics, applied physics, or similar field.
Benefits

We offer a young, fast-growing, and dynamic working environment with broad options for personal development. We have world-class technical people who love to share their skills with new team members. People from all around the world have joined us, creating an open-minded and diverse team spirit. We also value and want to make strides towards equality/diversity across the company - including in leadership positions - and strongly encourage women candidates to apply.

We offer a variety of benefits to create a positive experience at work, and enable a healthy and enjoyable work-life balance.
