<p><b>Job description (Research Technician High Resolution Imaging
Systems/Optomechatronics) at TU Delft, The Netherlands.</b></p>
<p><br>
The Control for High Resolution Imaging Group of the Delft
University of technology is seeking a highly skilled technician
who is ready to take on challenging specialized technical support
to research groups in the design, development, manufacture,
maintenance and installation of scientific instruments and
research laboratory equipment.</p>
<p>Typical duties include managing of equipment and assisting
scientific staff (PhD, Postdoc and professors) in their plans of
realizing state-of-the-art development of scientific instruments
and experimental setups. This includes supporting staff with 3D
component design, electronic prototyping, and programming. The
ability to thrive and actively participate in a fast developing
collaborative research environment is key.</p>
<p>The candidate should have a profound background in
opto-mechatronics, or willingness to develop one. Besides optics,
an affinity with electronics and programming is required. In
addition, the successful candidate should demonstrate experience
in developing and maintaining embedded control software solutions
for multi-agent system applications and experimental testing, such
as the use of customised, or commercial off-the-shelf (COTS)
components for autonomous, unmanned vehicle platforms (UAVs,
mobile robots, and small-scale vehicles).</p>

<ul>
<li> Lightsheet microscopy</li>
<li>Adaptive optics</li>
<li>3D and 4D imaging</li>
<li>Super resolution nanoscopy imaging</li>
<li>Cooperative quadrotor formation control, multi-agent robotic
manipulation and swarms</li>
<li>Fast autonomous vehicles with on-board optimization and
control</li>
<li>Inertial sensor-based, minimalistic multi-robot SLAM</li>
<li>Speedgoat real-time systems for embedded simulation and fleet
testing.</li>
</ul>
<p><b>Requirements:</b></p>
<p>The following qualifications are needed:</p>
<ul>
<li>MSc or PhD Degree in physics, optics, engineering, or computer
science.</li>
<li>Good understanding of optical, electrical and opto-mechatronic
design concepts.</li>
<li>Practical knowledge of optics and experimental laboratories.</li>
<li>Practices, such as 3D printing and development in
embedded/resource-constrained platforms such as Arduino,
Raspberry Pi, Pixhawk, among others, and/or willing to learn and
develop these practices.</li>
<li>Familiarity with design software such as SolidWorks, Zemax,
among others, and/or willing to develop these software skills.</li>
<li>Experience in ROS and knowledge of programming languages
Matlab/Simulink Real-Time, Python, Java, C/C++ will be
beneficial.</li>
<li>Excellent communication skills in English.</li>
