If you’re looking for a role where your work genuinely shapes the direction of a growing technology team, this one offers the chance to lead a talented group of physicists and mechanical engineers while steering complex laser‑based systems from development into full manufacturing.

You’d be joining a small but well‑funded organisation of just over twenty people, with strong backing and founders who are recognised experts in their field. It’s a place where you’ll have influence, visibility and the freedom to make a real difference.

In this role you’ll take ownership of the systems function, guiding how laser, optical, mechanical and control elements come together into a cohesive system. You’ll set the architectural direction, support hands‑on engineering decisions, and provide the leadership and structure the team needs as the technology scales.

Collaboration is key and you’ll work directly with the founders, wider engineering groups, suppliers and early customers...
