With us, you have the opportunity to perfectly combine your studies with practical experience while actively contributing to exciting projects. This allows you to gain valuable skills, expand your network, and grow both professionally and personally.

• Evaluate most promising topological techniques (pixelated surfaces or shape deformation) for design optimization of metasurfaces

• Development of both methods and integration within internal software.

• Simulation and design on test metasurfaces for a given application

• Comparison with current internal design methods (metric and merit function definition, computing cost)

• Contribution in the definition of structures for experimental testing

• Documentation of the algorithms developed and results

• A background in Electromagnetism (Interferometry, scattering, photonics, ...) and/or Mathematics (optimization techniques, topology, geometry, ...)

• You are enrolled in a Bachelor's or Master's program in one of the above subjects and experience in these fields is a plus

• Applied knowledge in Python and /or MATLAB
