Description
Define research topics and experimental strategies aligned with system and product requirements
Design, build, and operate experimental and test setups to measure and characterize system performance
Collect, analyze, and interpret experimental data, translating insights into technology capabilities and product specifications
Investigate new methods, theories, and physical phenomena; apply existing knowledge to novel challenges and generate new understanding through rigorous experimentation
Characterize material and system-level physical limits to inform design feasibility and define system requirements
Develop and validate simulation models to support experimental and systems work
Analyze and report results clearly to enable cross-functional teams to make informed design decisions
Partner with multidisciplinary teams across hardware, software, and systems engineering to drive research from concept to product","responsibilities":"Identify loop holes and no-go's in the product.
Define research strategies, either experimental or theoretical, to remove or reduce the system risks.

Preferred Qualifications
Post-doc or above, preferably in plasma/atomic physics/short pulses laser physics.
Experience in solving safety and compliance problems using theoretical and experimental inputs.
Familiarity with system requirements definition and specification development
Outstanding system understanding with the ability to understand cross-subject risks and problems.
Outstanding communicator with the ability to present complex technical findings to diverse audiences
Collaborative team player who thrives in multidisciplinary, cross-functional environments
Minimum Qualifications
Ph.D. in Physics or a closely related field
