Nanny Wanted - Hardworking Care Giver Needed In Fort St. John

We're supporting a pioneering client in the quantum technology space in their search for an Integrated Photonics Engineer. This role is ideal for someone excited by the challenge of building novel photonic systems from the ground up, especially within a highly collaborative, research-driven environment. The successful candidate will contribute to the design, testing, and optimization of next-generation photonic circuits used in advanced computing applications. The position involves hands-on lab work, including the development of test platforms and data acquisition tools for device characterization across a range of temperatures.

Role Highlights

• Design and implement experiments to assess the performance of on-chip optical components and integrated photonic devices
• Set up and operate test equipment for evaluating photonic systems under various environmental conditions
• Analyze device behavior and performance metrics; summarize insights for internal teams
• Write scripts for automating test procedures and post-processing data
• Partner with internal stakeholders—engineers, scientists, and designers—to iterate on device development
• Document workflows and share technical knowledge across the organization
• Support intellectual property development through research contributions

Your Background

• Graduate degree (Master’s or PhD) in physics, electrical engineering, optical engineering, or a related technical field
• Professional or academic experience working directly with integrated photonic technologies
• Comfortable working with optical alignment, fiber-optic systems, and related test tools
• Strong analytical and communication skills
• Familiarity with core concepts in photonics, signal integrity, and device modeling

Why This Role Stands Out

• Work on disruptive technology in a sector poised for rapid growth
• Contribute to highly specialized R&D with real-world applications
• Collaborate with experts across photonics, quantum engineering, and materials science
• Inclusive and innovation-driven culture with room for growth
• Competitive salary and benefits offered through a well-backed, scaling company
