Teddington Gloucestershire, United Kingdom NPL Full time

About NPL:
At NPL, we set the standards by which everything is measured. In doing so, the National Physical Laboratory is helping to combat issues on a global scale such as climate change, curing diseases, and the development of cutting-edge communications technology. Our role is to research, create and deliver the measurement infrastructure which underpins the UK's prosperity and quality of life across many fields of industry.
Job Opportunity:
There is an opportunity at NPL for a scientist/engineer to work on research-related topics for future telecoms and quantum applications, with emphasis on high-frequency measurement of electronic circuits and devices. This role includes involvement with on-wafer measurement, electromagnetic materials characterisation, cryogenic measurement systems, and other areas related to electronics. As a scientist, you'll be expected to acquire new knowledge to find solutions to advance our research. Also, if commercial opportunities arise from your work, you'll need to flag these – as this is how new products and services are born.
Join Us:
At NPL, we learn from each other, respect each other, and work together to do better for ourselves and our customers.
