FOSS Analytical A/S is looking for a talented and highly skilled physicist with a strong background in X-ray technology to be central in the development of our future X-ray solutions for food analysis.
This is an exciting opportunity, as you will have a significant influence on FOSS’ future innovation opportunities. In a global world with a growing population, there is an ever-increasing demand for safer food and less food waste. Our solutions provide accurate measurements and analytics insights to optimize food production from raw materials to finished products, and ultimately a better global usage of limited resources.
Help us define the future of X-ray instruments in the food industry
Your responsibility will be to develop and implement the measurement technology of current and future X-ray instruments - taking the technology from the lab environment to full-scale production. The responsibility includes the technical overview of the complete system from the raw measurement to the result and the interfaces to the rest of the instrument. A key to succeeding is the ability to plan, coordinate and communicate results to the project members and stakeholders.
Your tasks will span experimental work, measurements, simulations, and design. This is done in close collaboration with an experienced X-ray scientist, data scientists, mechanical and electrical engineers, software developers and other departments outside R&D.
We offer a motivating job in an international, dynamic, and innovative organization. We are market leaders within our field and very proud of the results we deliver. Innovation is the foundation for FOSS´ success and we therefore have a strong focus on R&D. We have a flat organizational structure giving you high influence in the job and on our solutions and focus on your career development. The daily work takes place in an innovative and cross-disciplinary environment offering exciting tasks and the possibility to learn new things every day. Your daily work will be at the FOSS Innovation Center in Hillerød, Denmark.
You will be become part of X-ray and LIBS teams in the Technology department of R&D. The team is responsible for innovation, development, and support of the measuring systems of FOSS’ product based on laser induced breakdown spectroscopy, X-ray, and computer vision technology. Together, the teams in Technology hold a high level of experience and competence within optics, physics, biochemistry, and microbiology. We strive to deliver solutions performing to the edge the technology with world leading relation between performance, cost, footprint, and reliability. We are open-minded to new ideas and have an informal working culture.
A scientist who wants to deliver solutions to end customers
You have a M.Sc. degree in physics or similar and most likely a Ph.D. You have proven results and hands-on experience developing X-ray based systems or experimental setups. In addition, you have interest in and experience with some of the following topics:
- Designing, specifying, and modeling X-ray systems and component such as sources and detectors
- Planning and executing experiments to validate designs and new ideas in laboratory set-ups and early prototypes including data analysis in e.g. Python or MatLab
- Instrument development and participation in cross-functional development projects
- Making dose calculations for X-ray safety and knowledge of safety standards
As a person you are structured and self-driven and enjoy being part of a strong team. You are curious about new problems and thrive on solving difficult tasks. Your record of accomplishments shows an ability to understand complex systems and to work systematically with trouble-shooting incl. designing and performing experiments. Further, you are open-minded and want to succeed as a team and help your colleagues.
