Aachen, Nordrhein-Westfalen, Deutschland Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft Vollzeit

In collaboration with the Chair of Technology of Optical Systems at RWTH Aachen University, the Fraunhofer Institute for Laser Technology ILT is offering a research opportunity in the Surface Technology and Shape Ablation department.

The demand for high-performance optics is increasing, requiring stable, compact, and low-maintenance components. To address this need, the Fraunhofer Institute is developing laser-based manufacturing processes for optomechanical components and optical systems.

This project focuses on investigating the influence of laser processing parameters on the position-selective ablation of quartz glass surfaces.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Participate in research projects
  • Conduct experimental studies, fixture construction, and simulations
  • Develop and procure components for scientific work

Requirements:

  • Materials science, physics, mechanical engineering, or related degree
  • Interest in challenging work with industrial and social relevance
  • Structured and independent work style
  • Previous knowledge in laser technology or laser material processing is advantageous

What You Can Expect:

  • Practice-oriented research in an innovative environment
  • Interdisciplinary collaboration in a highly motivated team
  • Access to excellent machinery and equipment
  • Exciting areas of work in applied research
  • Flexible working hours for combining studies and professional practice

We value diversity and welcome applications from all candidates, regardless of age, gender, nationality, or background.
