"In my role we take the research and use that to continually improve our technology. This is why I wanted to study physics; to research and discover new things, and then put them into practice."

Lucy

Physicist

Lucy, one of our physicists, has been with Lightcast since 2022 and is a part of the Chip Fabrication team. Lucy views her role as a mix, as she supports chip fabrication but is also involved with performing aspects of the research.

"Everyone here looks out for each and I feel very well looked after by my team, my manager, and HR. The opportunity for coaching to support my career development is also very important."

Patricia

Team Lead

Patricia began her Lightcast career as a Senior Research Biologist before moving into a Team Leader position.

“Working at Lightcast has been wonderful. I can say that the people are very helpful and knowledgeable, and everyone just chips in if you’ve got an issue or if you want to do something creative, which is great. You also get to work on a lot of different things, so there is always something new to learn.”

Tilemachos joined Lightcast in August 2022. He has a background in Chemical Biology, which he feels enables him to act as a "translator" between the chemistry and biology teams.
