Job Description

Are you ready for a new challenge in a dynamic scaleup environment? At SunLED Life Science, we're harnessing the power of near-infrared light to transform indoor environments and improve human health. We're looking for a talented electronics engineer to join our innovative team and help turn our groundbreaking ideas into working prototypes and amazing products! As our electronics engineer, you'll be at the forefront of creating technology and products that make a real difference in people's lives. You'll work in a dynamic, multidisciplinary team where your creativity and technical skills will make a real difference. Here is what you will mainly be up to as electronics engineer in our team: You work with our product designers, product manager, and scientists to develop demo’s, proof-of- technology, and proof-of-concept devices based on our cutting edge SunLED technology, from sketch on paper to execution. When prototypes are advancing towards minimum viable products or mass-production, you contribute to the DFM process, alignment with (production) partners, and sourcing information on materials and components. In a joint development process with partners, you guide the partner’s engineers to make sure that the final product meets the requirements. As the team is small, collaboration and helping each other is key to achieve our goals on various projects and topics. We share ideas and results, spark creativity, and drill down on fundamental problems. Your work will lead to new intellectual property and manufacturing breakthroughs.
