You will contribute to our research and development efforts on novel optical fingerprint sensing concepts, with the end goal of enabling under display fingerprint sensing. We have a strong drive to bring in new technologies and radically different sensing concepts, into our product portfolio.

What will you do?

As Team lead Optical Design, you will work in close collaboration with talented and dedicated colleagues to further develop fingerprint sensing technology and bring it to the market.
