Job Description

PhD Researcher

About the company

ORYL Photonics is a startup located in Epalinges near Lausanne, Switzerland. The company commercializes laboratory instruments based on Second Harmonic Scattering (SHS), a non‑linear optical effect triggered using femtosecond lasers, and works closely with academic partners such as EPFL to advance photonics applications in life science laboratories.

About the job

This PhD position is part of the MSCA Consortium WATER and jointly hosted by ORYL Photonics and the Laboratory for Fundamental BioPhotonics at EPFL. The role focuses on developing ultra‑fast light scattering techniques combining second‑harmonic scattering (SHS) and linear scattering (LS) to investigate biomolecular solubility, crystallization propensity, and intermolecular interactions, while translating experimental insights into robust, high‑throughput methodologies for industrial workflows.
