About the Company Our client is a high-tech spin-off from a leading Belgian R&D institute in nanoelectronics and digital technology. They specialize in developingultra-compact, low-cost multispectral sensing solutionsthat power a wide range ofconsumer and industrial applications— from wearables and smartphones to automotive, biomedical, smart agriculture, colour sensing, food analysis, and smart object recognition. Why They Are Hiring The Systems Engineering function has until now been managed by a single team lead, covering everything from customer application understanding to optical-electronic system design and simulation. With anew generation of productsin development, the company is expanding its systems engineering capabilities to: Build a more robust and scalable system architecture Accelerate delivery against the product roadmap Ensure knowledge sharing and mentoring within the team Two hires are being made simultaneously: Junior System Engineer – to learn, contribute, and grow within the team under the guidance of senior colleagues. Senior System Engineer – to co-lead system architecture, define requirements with customers, and mentor junior colleagues. Your Impact Joining this team means being at thecore of product developmentfor next-generation optical sensing solutions. Both roles offer the chance to work hands-on with advanced technologies, influence architecture decisions, and contribute to solutions that will impact millions of end-users worldwide. Key Responsibilities Define and refine system-level architecture for optical-electronic sensing solutions Translate customer applications into clear product requirements Design, simulate, and validate optical and image sensor systems Collaborate across R&D, product, and customer teams to ensure integration (Senior) Lead architecture discussions, mentor colleagues, and guide design/simulation (Junior) Support design validation, learn tools and methodologies, and progressively take on more responsibility Profile We're Looking For Senior System Engineer 5+ years' experience in optical systems, image sensor design, or semiconductor development Strong system-level engineering mindset Proficiency with simulation/design tools for optical/electronic systems Ability to mentor and
