Do you feel at home in a high-tech environment? Do you get excited about space and science? Are you interested in low power, low noise and high speed electronics? Then you are the colleague we are looking for! It is the mission of SRON to bring about breakthroughs in international space research. Therefore, the institute develops pioneering technology and advanced space instruments, and uses them to pursue Earth science, astrophysical and exoplanetary research. The instruments which SRON develops for satellites of ESA, NASA and JAXA require world leading electronic systems, which are low in power consumption, low in noise, high speed and highly reliable.
You will participate in the ESA NewAthena mission, for which SRON builds opto-electronic and control hardware. NewAthena will be the next European X-ray observatory for scientific research of the hot universe (black holes, dark energy, clusters of galaxies, etc.). Launch is expected in the mid-2030s.
