Fraunhofer CAP concentrates on mid-technology readiness level (TRL) prototyping and proof of principle work and it does not sell or manufacture products; Fraunhofer CAP has been highly successful and has grown progressively under the Fraunhofer model to currently over 70 staff and PhD/EngD students (the latter registered at the University of Strathclyde and several other universities).

To be considered for the role, you will have a PhD in an appropriate discipline (ideally physics or engineering), significant relevant research and technical experience in photonics, aligned with the core expertise of Fraunhofer CAP and/or the Institute of Photonics, and a track record of research publications, conference presentations and generation and filing of intellectual property rights appropriate to your career history. You will have demonstrated an ability to develop research proposals or technology-based commercial contract proposals and to attract research and/or R&D funding, including experience of creating consortia and writing industry-focussed/industry-partnered grant applications. You will have experience of planning and organising workloads, including the ability to supervise and delegate technical work and you will have a demonstrated ability to work within a team environment, including team leadership. Experience in the supervision of PhD/EngD students (either as an academic or industrial supervisor) is desirable.
