Supply Chain Engineer (f/m/d)

About Focused Energy At Focused Energy, we are pioneering NeoLyte—a breakthrough initiative in compact, laser-driven radiation sources (LDRS) with cutting-edge, high-power laser technology. Our dual-mode LDRS platform enables real-time, non-destructive inspection of a wide range of materials, including complex and shielded items, by combining MeV X-rays and fast neutrons in a single, modular system. This technology addresses critical challenges across nuclear waste analysis, contraband detection, infrastructure inspection, and medical isotope production. With its unique combination of high resolution, material specificity, and deployment flexibility, LDRS creates opportunities beyond the limits of conventional systems. Our cross-disciplinary team brings together experts in laser and plasma physics, engineering, and AI. We are building our first pilot facility in Biblis, Germany, and moving rapidly toward market readiness and commercial deployment. Join us at the ground floor of this deep-tech venture and help shape the future of radiation source technology.
