Controls Engineer
Our Client is a well-funded, high-tech, start-up, that is leveraging patented IP in extreme ultraviolet (EUV) light source design, to build a unique lab-scale soft x-ray imaging microscope. With the launch of its first-generation product in 2023, it is targeting a large niche global market of disease and drug research organisations that is estimated to grow to €1 billion in annual revenues within ten years. Since its formation in 2015, our client has won numerous national and EU awards for its technology and business proposition. It is seeking to grow its organisation with the recruitment of agile and hard-working staff who have the ambition to grow their careers as the company grows.
The microscope produces tomograms of frozen biological cells providing information on the internal structure of the cell, which is critical in the understanding of disease causation and in the development of effective therapies and vaccines. At the heart of the technology is a very small laser produced plasma which produces the soft X-rays and allows them to be efficiently coupled to the microscope.
Our client is seeking to immediately hire a Control Engineer to grow its development team, based in Dublin. The role will involve the continuous development of the User Interface to a complex microscope, with a high number of different interfaces, primarily in LabVIEW.
