Systems and Applications Engineer

Working closely with established and potential clients, the Senior Systems and Applications Engineer will be responsible for gaining a comprehensive understanding of their requirements and helping them devise or trouble-shoot end-product integration solutions. Key to this will be the ability to analyse the requirements of each application using computational fluid dynamics and mapping them to client-based fluidic design requirements, as well as creating functioning demonstrators and test-boards.

By virtue of their knowledge, expertise and experience in the domains of MEMS and semiconductor development, the right candidate will inspire confidence in colleagues, partners and clients. They will have well-developed practical skills for system building and testing, and will be thorough and accurate in pursuit of cost-effective engineering solutions. They will be able to mentor and train more junior colleagues and will understand the value of clear and comprehensive documentation.

Excellent communication skills will be essential., * A good degree in engineering or similar technical or scientific subject which includes the study of fluidics.

• Skills in fluidic system analysis, design, simulation (SolidWorks Flow / ANSYS / COMSOL) physical implementation and testing.
• Electro-mechanical-fluidic system design and mechanical design using Solidworks or a similar tool.
• Experience of rapid prototyping using 3D printing, machining and other methods.
• Comfortable integrating application solutions and test systems with hardware, as well as programming hardware with firmware to run test software.
• Experience working directly with clients on development projects and developing product demonstrators.
• Full rights to work in the UK without time limit.

Skills in the following subjects would be a distinct advantage:

• Flow and gas sensing.
• Silicon-MEMS technology and semiconductor/MEMS packaging.
• Python, C, C++, C#, WPF or Labview to run test setups and demonstrators.

A competitive salary and benefits package are on offer to successful candidates.
