Are you the next Senior Systems Engineer to help build and shape the software behind our next generation laser processing platform? If so, Opsydia would love to hear from you as we expand into new markets and unlock new technical opportunities. Spun out from the University of Oxford in 2017, Opsydia is a specialist laser technology company harnessing decades of academic excellence and deep expertise in adaptive optics to enable the writing of features in transparent materials. Our writing technology has gone on to provide functionalities across scientific and industrial domains. Our platform enables the creation of functional devices in optical glass, diamond, and other transparent media, powering disruptive applications in datacoms, quantum technologies, and advanced sensing. THE ROLE As a Senior Systems Engineer, you will take full system level ownership of Opsydia's next generation laser photonics products. This is a technical leadership role spanning architecture, integration, verification, and productisation, ensuring that complex opto electro mechanical subsystems come together into robust, high performance solutions. You will lead the definition, design, and delivery of complete systems, balancing photonics, precision mechanics, automation, software, reliability engineering, and manufacturability. Working across early stage R&D, customer engagements, and product development, you will play a key role in shaping Opsydia's technical roadmap and maturing prototypes into deliverable, field ready products. Key Responsibilities End to End Systems Ownership Lead system architecture from concept through requirements, detailed design, prototyping, verification, and release. Develop system level specifications, performance budgets, and risk models across optical, mechanical, electrical, and software domains. Define and drive processes for system integration, validation, and troubleshooting. Ultrafast Laser & Photonics Systems Integrate and optimise femtosecond laser sources for high precision laser matter interaction applications. Collaborate with laser manufacturers to define specifications, validate performance, and ensure long term stability and repeatability. Manage system level trade offs involving beam delivery, adaptive optics, power stability, thermal management, and alignment tolerances. Precision Motion & Opto-Mechanical Integration Architect and integrate high precision motion systems (piezo, air bearing, linear motor) with sub micron or nanometre level stability. Oversee opto mechanical design for robustness in industrial environments, ensuring vibration control, thermal stability, and reliability. Work closely with the Software Team to achieve coordinated laser-stage performance.
