Hands-on lab experience designing and carrying out tests for relevant optical systems.

Desirable additional skills:

Experience with electronics for optoelectronic systems, including analogue front-ends, high-speed data converters, embedded/FPGAs, and power/EMI/thermal considerations
Experience with optical or RF communication systems, including modulation schemes, error correction, FPGA/SDR modem implementation, and relevant protocols (e.g. CCSDS, SpaceWire, Ethernet)
Experience with high power lasers, optical amplifiers, and relevant safety requirements
Experience with optical instrument calibration and alignment, and procedure definition.

Location: Our office is based in Osney Mead, Oxford. There will be opportunity to work from home as agreed with your line manager.
