The CIRCUITPHOTONICS platform is seeking a highly qualified and motivated Research Engineer holding a PhD to operate, develop, and optimize multiphoton microscopy systems for studying neuronal activity in awake mice and/or primates (saïmiri). The candidate will have strong expertise in two-photon microscopy and will work closely with researchers to adapt protocols to specific experimental needs.
The position involves operating and further developing several imaging systems, including the Bruker microscope (galvanometric and resonant scanning), the Karthala system (equipped with acousto-optic deflectors for random-access imaging in 2D and 3D, as well as dynamic holographic excitation and various photostimulation techniques), training users on and operating the three-photon microscope, using the DeepColor photoacoustic imaging system, and implementing and operating the recently acquired Mini2P system.

Please see the attached job description.

Contract duration: 24 months (renewable)
Expected start date: October 30, 2026
Salary: depending on professional experience
Required experience: Experience in two-photon microscopy and imaging in biological samples, preferably in vivo. Experience in in vivo neuroscience and animal experimentation (with certification if applicable) is not mandatory but would be an asset.
