About the Position 
HiLASE Centre is looking for a Junior Researcher to join the ATLAS (Advanced Technologies for Laser Applications in Space) project, contributing to next-generation laser systems, particularly in the field of adaptive optics and laser system design and simulation.

The selected candidate will be involved in the design, development, and testing of optical systems with emphasis on practical applications such as spaceborne platforms or lasers for optical communication. This role is ideal for individuals interested in numerical modelling of advanced laser technologies and their optimization for their potential applications in space and atmospheric environments.

What You Will Do
As a Junior Researcher, your key responsibilities will include:

  • Working on research objectives aligned with the goals of the ATLAS project.
  • Designing, modelling, testing, and optimizing adaptive optics components for their intended use in free space environments.
  • Capability of conducting independent research and implementation of numerical solutions to the general model of laser system in question. Open mindset for exploring new methodologies and technologies.
  • Designing and conducting experiments in the field of adaptive optics. Gathering of experimental data and their analysis.
  • Publishing research results in peer-reviewed journals and presenting at scientific conferences.

We Are Looking for Someone with the following skills and competencies 
Essential Qualifications and Experience:

  • Master’s degree or PhD (or equivalent experience) in physics, engineering, optics, or a related field
  • Ability to plan and conduct independent research
  • Self-motivation for achieving set goals and the ability to find suitable means
  • Ability to analyse the experimental results and defend their interpretation
  • Organisational skills with the ability to manage workload and meet deadlines
  • Excellent interpersonal and communication abilities, with the capacity to present complex topics clearly
  • Motivated to explore space applications of laser technologies
  • Ability to work as part of a team

Research experience in one or more of the following areas:

  • Laser system design and benchmarking
  • Numerical modelling of complex multi-element systems

Desirable Qualifications and Experience:

  • General knowledge of laser systems
  • Experience with MATLAB environment, preferably PDE toolbox implementation

In return, you will get from us:

  • Opportunity to work in a unique scientific centre with an international team
  • Interesting and varied work where you won’t get bored
  • Possibility of self-realization and application of own ideas
  • Support for further education, personal development and growth
  • A well-coordinated team of people who take the work as a mission and a challenge
  • 5 weeks’ vacation, 6 personal days and other employee benefits
  • Time flexibility
