Envisics Industrial Placement
Here at Envisics, we are an internationally based automotive technology company with an ambitious goal to redefine and revolutionize the next generation of in-vehicle experience with the development of an industry-leading Augmented Reality Head-Up Display.
Using the innovative technology of phase-only holography, we are making this a reality!
We’ve already assembled some of the world’s top scientists & engineers from worldwide renowned companies and due to our success and growth, Envisics is now looking to open the doors to entry-level talent, in the form of three industrial placements. Industrial placements last for 1 year and are for undergraduate students.
Summary Of Role
The candidate will work within the core team responsible for developing Holographic Spatial Light modulators. Envisics develop SLMs from Silicon design and Liquid Crystal research through to fabrication and final assembly. This requires novel metrology techniques and an understanding of SLMs in a holographic projection system.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
Role will include laboratory work, measuring performance of SLM Device characteristics, collecting and analyzing data and presenting results to the design team.
Depending on the suitability of the candidate some Design of Experiment and Root Cause Analysis tasks may also be involved.
Key Responsibilities
- Use a range of measurement techniques to evaluate novel Holographic Spatial Light Modulators.
- Where necessary, automate measurements to increase throughput and speed of data gathering.
- Where necessary, use computational modeling tools to further enhance understanding of device performance.
- Interact with wider R&D teams to present the results of measurements or modeling activities.
