Team Leader Optical Ranging Systems

Il y a 7 mois


Leuven, Belgique IMEC Inc. Temps plein

Research & development - Leuven | Just now- Team leader role for an optical ranging team focused on developing PIC based LiDARs.- What you will doLiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) technology has seen significant growth over the last years, mainly driven by the automotive industry. Size, weight, and cost are some of the major driving forces when exploring new LiDAR architectures. Photonic integrated circuits (PICs) open the possibility of densely packing most of the required LiDAR photonic building blocks on a single Si/SiN chip using CMOS-compatible foundry processes. Emerging solid-state systems are typically based on coherent detection techniques, such as FMCW (frequency-modulated continuous wave) and focus on reducing their dependency on mechanical scanning devices by using optical phased arrays (OPAs) for solid-state beamforming.-
In this role, your main tasks will be:

- Make key contributions to the development and design of PIC based LiDAR
- Coach and follow-up team members, setting goals and encouraging growth
- Ensure the operational, and technical excellence of the team
- Help solve technical problems regarding design or characterization
- Manage the team resources to plan and staff ongoing and future projects
- Interact and align with the group and department, and project leadership

What we do for you

We offer you the opportunity to join one of the world’s premier research centers in nanotechnology at its headquarters in Leuven, Belgium. With your talent, passion and expertise, you’ll become part of a team that makes the impossible possible. Together, we shape the technology that will determine the society of tomorrow.

We are committed to being an inclusive employer and proud of our open, multicultural, and informal working environment with ample possibilities to take initiative and show responsibility.
