Laser development engineer
for fusion project

DESY, with more than 2900 employees at its two locations in Hamburg and Zeuthen, is one of the world's leading research centres. Its research focuses on decoding the structure and function of matter, from the smallest particles of the universe to the building blocks of life. In this way, DESY contributes to solving the major questions and urgent challenges facing science, society and industry. With its ultramodern research infrastructure, its interdisciplinary research platforms and its international networks, DESY offers a highly attractive working environment in the fields of science, technology and administration as well as for the education of highly qualified young scientists.

We are launching a national laser development project for laser fusion, dedicated to breaking new ground in laser science and technology. Its goal is to develop the next generation of cryogenic high-power Yb-laser systems and advanced diagnostics – technologies that will pave the way for fusion energy as a clean and virtually limitless power source. At DESY, one of Europe's leading research centers, you will join a world-class team of scientists and engineers who are not only advancing the frontiers of laser physics, but also shaping a technology with the potential to transform global energy. Working within this project means being at the cutting edge of science and innovation, contributing to a project of international significance, and collaborating with some of the brightest minds in the field.
