Key Responsibilities
- Own a scoped experiment through a 12-week cycle: define the question and success criteria, write the test plan, run it, and report the result.
- Build first-order physics models from the literature to size the experiment and interpret the data.
- Assemble, align, and operate pulsed laser systems and beamlines, working with Experimental Lasers staff and with optical and controls engineers.
- Design and calibrate pulse diagnostics, and quantify the uncertainty in what they measure.
- Present results at team reviews and a company-wide Lunch and Learn, and document the work so the team can build on it.
Requirements
- Education: Enrolled in, or admitted to, an MS or PhD program in physics, optics, electrical engineering, or a related field.
- Experience: Hands-on research or thesis work using lasers or optical systems.
- Clear written and verbal communication, including presenting technical results.
- Available to work full-time onsite in Denver for all 12 weeks.
- Must be a U.S. citizen or national, U.S. permanent resident (current Green Card holder), or lawfully admitted into the U.S. as a refugee or granted asylum.
- Hands-on experience operating pulsed lasers or nonlinear frequency conversion.
- Demonstrated ability to calibrate energy, temporal, spectral, or beam-profile diagnostics and analyze the data in Python, MATLAB, or similar.
- Skilled at working safely with vacuum systems, high voltage, or Class 4 lasers.
- Track record of planning and running experiments independently, from alignment through data analysis.
