Electronics Engineer for The Printed Electronics Line

CIDETEC Surface Engineering _needs to recruit a person with extensive knowledge in electronics to join its Smart & Functional Surfaces Unit, to reinforce the line of printed electronics, working on activities related to the electronic control of printed elements.

**If you want to be part of this revolution, we are waiting for you**

CIDETEC is an international leader in research and innovation related to surface engineering in the fields of Coatings and Surface Treatments, Polymers and Composites, and Smart & Functional Surfaces. We specialise in the treatment of surfaces and materials with state-of-the-art technologies. The researcher will work in activities related to the development of training and industrial R&D projects, in close contact with the most prominent companies in sectors such as aeronautics, automotive and energy.

**Your contribution**

You will join a cutting-edge research centre, focused on sustainability and the circular economy, which has spent years understanding and revolutionising the surfaces of things, from those we touch every day in our homes or in our vehicles, to the most demanding materials for sectors such as aeronautics and energy.

You will work on training and/or company transfer projects, carrying out your work in such a way that you are able to pursue several lines of research simultaneously, optimising resources and maximising results.

In addition to working on issues related to the electronic control of PCBs and printed elements at both hardware and software level, your work will focus on the following activities:

- Reinforcement and promotion of the printed electronics research line
- Generate new ideas/concepts.
- Project Management
- Analysis of results, drafting reports and preparing presentations.
- Supporting the preparation of documentation connected with seeking funding.
