Are you the next Head of Systems Engineering to drive forward our next-generation laser processing platform? A spinout from the University of Oxford, Opsydia is a specialist laser technology company harnessing decades of academic excellence and experience in adaptive optics that enable the writing of features in transparent materials. Our writing technology has gone on to provide functionalities across many scientific and industrial areas. Our technological capabilities and intellectual property in adaptive optics have been accelerated forward and are now engaged with world class companies with a view to deploying Opsydia's systems in their next generation products. With strong support from investors and the market, Opsydia has been pursuing new applications in areas ranging from co-packaged optical-semiconductor devices, datacoms, quantum to sensing devices. If you're seeking to join an industry leading innovator, we'd love to hear from you. THE ROLE As the Head of Systems Engineering, you will own the systems architecture and integration across hardware, optics, and controls specifically in ultra-fast laser photonics and control systems, while building a high performing team and establishing best practices in product development & manufacturability. Initial scope includes scaling and enhancing our system platform, developing new system variants for emerging applications, and working closely with global customers to understand their unique requirements and translate them into robust, high performing, market ready products. This role will suit an experienced leader who applies rigorous systems engineering practices, has successfully led high performing technical teams, and brings hands on expertise with ultrafast laser technologies. It's ideal for someone who thrives in a dynamic, fast moving, and innovative environment and enjoys shaping architecture, guiding multidisciplinary engineering efforts, and delivering technically ambitious products with clarity, structure and purpose. Key Responsibilities Leadership & Team Management Build, lead, and develop a high performing Systems Engineering team. Establish operating rhythms: daily standups, technical/design reviews; foster accountability, collaboration, and technical excellence. Manage capacity and prioritisation across programs; resource allocation between advanced NPD and sustaining engineering. Technical Ownership & Architecture Own end to end systems architecture with deep involvement in ultra-fast laser photonics (laser sources, beam delivery, optical subsystems) and control systems (precision motion, feedback control, embedded/real time). Translate customer/product requirements into system level specifications.
