Nanofabrication Technician at University of Southampton

We are seeking a Nanofabrication Technician for a new research project to develop biologically inspired miniature acoustic sensors. The project’s aim is to help enable the UK water sector to meet its commitment to half the trillions of litres of water lost from buried water pipes due to leakage. 

 If you are passionate about cutting-edge research and innovation, we offer the opportunity to join a group that has a work culture centred around the team and is very supportive of one another. 

You will be supported to thrive in a university environment, while working on the fabrication and development of devices for future technologies using state-of-art cleanroom facilities. You will be encouraged to develop your career and play a key role in the research. You will have the opportunity to discuss flexible working arrangements.

 You will already have experience of working in a laboratory environment, and of successfully planning and progressing work. You will have a degree in a science related subject or equivalent industry experience. Basic knowledge of Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems (MEMS) or Silicon Photonics device fabrication is desirable.
