About Elvesys:

Our vision

A major technological revolution is underway in the world of biotechnology, which is accelerating progress in medicine like never before. Microfluidics is one of the cornerstones of this revolution.

Our mission

To develop microfluidic instruments to enable researchers around the world to go beyond the state of the art in their scientific fields.

Our company

Elvesys is a young innovative company of 50 people created by 3 young PhDs in microfluidics. We are passionate, selective and demanding. In return, we offer you a dynamic and challenging work environment, and the possibility of career and personal development with no other limits than your own.

The PhD

A PhD at Elvesys has nothing to do with a typical PhD. You will be immersed in a start-up with a strong entrepreneurial and innovative spirit.

Your mission

To bring a new product to the market before the end of your PhD. Besides the science, you will learn how to identify a market, contact end-users, and translate their needs and requirements into a real product that can be sold by our brand Elveflow. This experience will allow you to learn the basics of entrepreneurship and market-driven research in parallel with obtaining your PhD.

The scientific project

This project is part of the LasIonDef Marie Curie consortium, a collaborative European project aiming to integrate quantum photonics with microfluidic devices toward the realization of quantum sensing, communication and computing technologies.

Your role will be in software engineering and electronics, focused on developing a new algorithm for precision flow control and fluid numeric simulations. Your work will also include the implementation of the developed software in microfluidic experiments. You will additionally be working in collaboration with consortium partners in the design, testing and integration of laser-written microfluidic devices. You will be enrolled in the Chemical Engineering doctoral school of Universidad Complutense de Madrid (UCM), one of the partner organizations of the LasIonDef project.

Your profile to become the rockstar of the team

➔ You have a masters degree (or equivalent) in electronics (other engineering disciplines with experience in software development)

➔ You are scientifically rigorous, creative and practical

➔ You can think “outside the box” to find simple solutions to complicated problems, you are not afraid to tackle complex problems

➔ You don’t like routine, and you’re able to quickly adapt to changes in direction

➔ Knowledge of Spanish is a plus

At Elvesys, we like: Action; creative, autonomous and curious people, team players. Those who act more than they talk, people who challenge themselves and yet care about others. Those who question themselves, those who want an intense and contrasted life. Those who bring us treats.

Why should you join us?

Because you want to conduct your PhD in a stimulating environment and to create new marketable microfluidic innovations!
