About Energetiq


Energetiq is the high technology, ultra-bright light source division of Hamamatsu Corp., a Japanese optical components and systems company. At Energetiq we are growing our market presence by introducing breakthrough products using our patented, ultra-bright Laser-Driven Light Source (LDLS™) and Electrodeless Z-Pinch™ EUV technologies. These technologies are used in a variety of markets such as high-end computer chip manufacturing, sensor testing for cell phones, and in a variety of drug discovery and medical applications. Our customers are sophisticated equipment manufacturers that operate at the forefront of what is possible.



Location: This position is onsite and is based in Wilmington, MAPosition Summary:


We are seeking an R&D Experimental Engineer / Scientist to develop next-generation EUV source technologies—from early-stage concept evaluation through prototype development—and to enhance the performance of current EUV systems.

This role involves hands-on experimental work, including the design and execution of experiments, development of proof-of-concept hardware, and use of advanced characterization techniques. The ideal candidate will bring strong experience in experimental physics or a related field (e.g., plasma systems, advanced materials processing such as CVD, or similar technologies), along with a practical mindset toward system development.

The Engineer / Scientist will collaborate closely with a multidisciplinary team of scientists and engineers to evaluate new technologies, analyze results, and mature concepts into prototype-ready systems with consideration for performance, reliability, and serviceability.


Key Responsibilities:


Develop next-generation EUV source technologies from early-stage concept through prototype developmentExperimentally evaluate candidate technologies using a range of characterization methods (plasma, optical, electrical, thermal, and gas diagnostics)Design, build, and operate proof-of-concept hardware and experimental setups, including R&D EUV sources and beamline systemsPlan and execute experiments; analyze and interpret data to guide design decisions and technology developmentCollaborate with theoretical and experimental teams to compare results with models and refine experimental approachesAdvance technologies to a level suitable for prototype system buildsImprove performance of current-generation EUV sources and expand their application spaceCommunicate technical findings effectively through presentations, reports, and cross-functional discussions

Minimum Requirements:


Ph.D. in Physics or a related field, or M.S. with significant relevant experience5+ years of post-graduate academic or industrial R&D experienceStrong hands-on experience designing and executing complex experimentsExperience working with electronic circuits and characterization instrumentation (e.g., oscilloscopes, data acquisition systems, sensors)Background in plasma systems or related fields (e.g., CVD, high-energy systems, advanced materials processing, vacuum-based systems)Experience with vacuum systems (pumps, valves, MFCs)Proficiency in data analysis and visualization tools (e.g., Python, MATLAB, Octave)Familiarity with power electronics and high-voltage systemsWorking knowledge of optics and optical physicsStrong written and verbal communication skills, including presenting technical content to groupsAbility to travel domestically and internationally (up to ~10%)
Preferred Qualifications:


Experience assembling, modifying, and operating advanced characterization systems (e.g., beamlines, spectrometers, imaging systems, x-ray/UV optics, photodiodes)Deep understanding of plasma generation, control, and diagnostic techniquesExperience with simulations (e.g., gas transport, thermo-mechanical analysis)Product development experience, including transitioning concepts to prototype systems



The compensation salary range for this role is $113,000 to $121,000. Actual compensation packages are based on several factors that are unique to each candidate, including but not limited to skill set, depth of experience, and certifications.
