Full job description

Senior Design Engineer & Team Leader - Optics and Fibre Optics R&D

Location: Torquay, UK - Join a World Leader in Photonics, part of the Torbay Hi-Tech Cluster

Shape the Future of Light-Based Technologies

G&H is a global leader in optical design, testing and manufacturing. For more than 75 years, we’ve been at the forefront of photonics innovation—designing and delivering optical systems, assemblies and components for the world’s most demanding applications. Our technologies are trusted everywhere from the deepest oceans to space.

At our Torquay site, you’ll be part of the Torbay Hi-Tech Cluster—a vibrant community of photonics and microelectronics companies driving breakthrough innovation in the South Devon region. This is where world-class engineering meets real-world impact.

We’re now looking for a Senior Design Engineer & Team Leader to join our Optics and Fibre Optic R&D team and help shape the next generation of fibre-optic technologies.

The Opportunity

You’ll play a central role in developing advanced fibre-optic sub-systems—from early concept and prototyping through to early-stage production. Current programmes include high-power fibre-optic amplifier sub-systems for free-space optical communications, aerospace & defence, and remote sensing.

Working typically across TRL3 to TRL7, you’ll lead technical development, guide a small team, and stay hands-on with design, prototype build, testing and customer engagement. This is a role for someone who thrives on variety, complexity and genuine innovation.

What You'll be Doing

Providing technical leadership in the design and development of fibre-optic sub-systems, including high-power optical amplifiers
Leading and managing small project teams to deliver on time and within budget
Working closely with optical, mechanical and electronic engineers in a multidisciplinary environment
Taking an active role in prototype build and assembly, including fibre-optic splicing, mechanical/electrical assembly and opto-electronic testing
Developing and executing test plans for functional and environmental verification
Engaging directly with customers—negotiating specifications, presenting results and shaping technical direction
Building strong internal networks across G&H’s global technical and commercial teams
Delivering technical reviews and producing clear, concise management reports

What You’ll Bring

Degree or PhD/EngD in Engineering or Physics with an optics, photonics or fibre-optics focus
Current or recent experience in the optics/photonics industry
Commercial experience developing fibre-optic or laser products
Strong knowledge of optical amplifiers (ideally high-power), fibre-optics and photonics
Hands-on experience building and testing fibre-optic components, systems or opto-electronic modules
Team leadership or project management experience
Ability to generate proposals and manage both technical and financial aspects of development projects
Excellent communication skills, with confidence presenting to customers and stakeholders

Why join G&H?

Be part of a globally recognised photonics leader with a 75-year heritage
Work on technologies used everywhere from the Moon to the ocean floor
Join a thriving local cluster of high-tech innovators in Torbay
Enjoy a role with real influence, variety and technical depth
Contribute to products that are marketed worldwide and shape future industries

Notes: This job description is not intended to be exhaustive in every respect, but rather to clearly define the fundamental purpose, responsibilities and dimensions for the role. Therefore, this job description does not describe any individual role holder. In addition to the contents of this job description, employees are expected to undertake any and all other reasonable and related tasks allocated by their line manager.

The Company is committed to providing equal employment opportunities for all employees and applicants for employment. The Company does not discriminate in employment opportunity or practices on the grounds of gender, race, religion or belief, age, disability, sexual orientation, gender identity, protected veteran status, or any other characteristic protected by national laws under which the Company operates.

Potential candidates should be aware that many of the employment roles at Gooch & Housego are subject to government security and export control restrictions. These restrictions mean that factors such as your nationality, any nationalities that you may have previously held and your place of birth, could restrict the roles you are eligible to perform within the organisation.

All UK applicants must, as a minimum, be able to successfully complete security vetting to the UK government’s Baseline Personnel Security Standard, which includes a criminal record check being performed. Many roles may also require higher levels of security vetting to be completed, where applicants must typically have been continuously resident within the UK for the past five to ten years.
