fundamental physical and chemical properties of condensed matter and their
classical and quantum-mechanical interactions. Investigations incorporate
the use of lasers, optics, cryogenics, vacuum systems, precision
electronics, and high-performance detectors for the measurement of linear
and nonlinear dynamics.

We are looking for someone who has:
. Design and modeling of complex physical and chemical systems
. Precise wavelength and phase stabilization of lasers, optical parametric
oscillators and amplifiers and frequency conversion devices
. Familiarity with current state-of-the-art in optical materials and optical
systems
. Additional knowledge of related laser-based remote sensing technologies is
desired, including coherent and direct detection laser radar, radiometry,
Fourier/wave optics, beam propagation, and/or atmospheric sciences
. Experience in one or more of the following areas: customized simulations
of condensed matter and/or chemical physics, diffractive beam propagation,
thermo-optic effects and parametric processes

You should demonstrate excellent written and verbal communication skills, as
well as the ability to present effectively to both technical and
non-technical audiences at all levels of the organization.
