Port Coquitlam, Canada Photonic Full time
DescriptionAs our Lab Support Specialist at Photonic, you will become an integral part of our Research and Development (R&D) Operations team, working at the forefront of cutting-edge technology. Your primary focus will be to support our scientific and R&D teams in their experiments, particularly performing routine quality control processes on electro-optical samples, operating cryogenic systems, and building and aligning high precision optomechanical and electromechanical assemblies. The ideal candidate will have a strong background in both mechanical and electrical troubleshooting and possess experience with various lab and measurement tools.

Please include a cover letter with your resume (in one file) describing how you would be a great fit at Photonic and what attributes you could bring to our growing team.
WHAT WE NEED YOU TO DO
  • Run routine quality control processes on electro-optical samples, including microscopic inspection, sample mounting, optical property screening, and wire-bonding procedures.
  • Load and align samples into cryogenic systems, and prepare the systems for sample swaps through warm-up and cool-down procedures.
  • Build, align, and calibrate high precision optomechanical and electromechanical assemblies for laser steering and optical inspection applications.
  • Inspect incoming sample mounting componentry for quality using standard metrology tools such as dial/test indicators, surface plates, and micrometers.
  • Perform minor electrical assembly tasks, including wiring modules and modifying cable assemblies.
  • Handle minor fabrication and assembly work, including working with 80/20 Aluminum extrusion.
  • Ensure equipment calibrations, perform firmware upgrades, and update software on measurement systems. Refill liquid LN2 dewars and high-pressure gas cylinders on a weekly basis.
  • Record system performance logs and write measurement reports.

WHAT YOU BRING TO OUR TEAM You thrive on the challenge of learning new technologies and scientific advancements, leveraging your extensive expertise in lab operations and cryogenic systems. With an open mind and a creative approach, you excel at solving complex, multi-variable problems. To succeed in this role, we’re looking for someone with:
  • A college diploma or university degree, accompanied by 5+ years of hands-on experience
  • Proficiency in mechanical and electrical troubleshooting, using digital multimeters, oscilloscopes, soldering irons, and crimpers.
  • Experience with Python and command-line interfaces is a plus. Familiarity with SolidWorks, CAD, Fusion 360, and CAM is also beneficial.
  • Previous experience with precision alignment jigs, optomechanical design, data acquisition systems, and machine shop work is highly valued.
  • Knowledge of high vacuum systems, leak detectors, and experience with CNC milling machines and manual lathes are advantageous.
  • Ability to write clear technical documentation and measurement reports.
An exceptional candidate will bring:
  • Experience with cryogenic systems, high vacuum systems, and precision alignment techniques.
  • Background in optomechanical design and use of precision alignment jigs.
  • Proficiency in machine shop operations and experience with Fusion 360/CAM.
  • Ability to interpret engineering drawings and familiarity with technical writing and documentation.
  • Additional skills: Forklift operation, gantry cranes, and experience with water cooling chiller loops and HVAC systems. 
BonusPhotonic is designing the world’s first quantum processor in silicon. It would be advantageous if you had some familiarity with quantum physics, mathematics, and programming, but we will ensure that team members will have the opportunity to learn about quantum computing as we grow.
