Chemical Physicist – Fluidic Device Testing
Newton Colmore is working with a technology company in London who are looking for a Chemical Physicist to join their testing team.
As a Chemical Physicist, you will be utilising your scientific experience to design and develop test rigs and protocols to deliver meaningful conclusions that will shape the future development and manufacturing of fluidics-based devices.
This will include the testing of key systems and their sub-systems as well as all data logging solutions. This is an all-encompassing testing role that you will also have responsibility for assembly, de-bugging and the sourcing of bespoke components. You will be testing for a variety of different parameters including thermal management, actuators and mechanism design as well as fluidic flows and how electronics interact with fluidics.
We are looking for physicists who have experience with designing test rigs, CAD systems and knowledge of low volume prototyping and manufacturing practices. Any additional experience with designing test scripts in Python would be advantageous to your application.
As well as providing a great opportunity for you to work on a brand-new product within a fast-paced environment the company is offering competitive packages which includes share options.
For more information, please call Matthew Lowdon of Newton Colmore Consulting on 0044 121 268 2240 or make an application and one of our team will be in touch.
Newton Colmore Consulting is a highly specialist recruitment consultancy operating within the Medical Devices, Scientific Engineering, Scientific Software, Robotics, Science, Electronics Design, New Product Design, Human Factors, Regulatory Affairs, Quality Assurance and Field Service Engineering sectors throughout Europe and the US.
