At Lace, we build chip lithography technology that will enable the next 100 years of chip manufacturing. Founded in 2023, we’re based in Bergen (Norway), Barcelona (Spain) and Eindhoven (Netherlands), and backed by some of the world’s most ambitious investors.
As a Technical Project Manager, you will be the operational engine driving our transition from groundbreaking physics prototypes to industrial‑grade manufacturing systems. You will lead elite, cross‑functional teams across Norway, Spain, and the Netherlands as we sprint toward our next significant milestones.
Role And Responsibilities In an early‑to‑mid‑stage deep‑tech environment, your role spans both high‑level roadmap execution and hands‑on problem solving that may include but are not limited to the responsibilities below.
Lab-to-Fab Industrialization: Own the project lifecycle for transforming research into robust, scalable, and highly reliable commercial tool modules.
Cross-Disciplinary Orchestration: Bridge the gap between ultra‑specialized disciplines,



aligning quantum physicists (working on atom optics and vacuum systems) with mechanical, electrical, and software engineers.
Algorithm Integration: Manage the software workstreams responsible for scaling our proprietary, AI‑driven mask design algorithms—the computational core that makes atom‑beam lithography mathematically viable.
Agile Startup Execution: Build and maintain adaptable project timelines. You will manage resources dynamically to meet aggressive milestones backed by top‑tier venture capital.
Partner Liaison: Act as a key operational interface with external partners and early‑adopter foundries in the ecosystem and aligning timelines, milestones and dependencies.
Education And Experience
~ Education: Master’s or PhD in Physics, Engineering, or a closely related deep‑tech discipline. (A strong technical baseline is mandatory to understand our core technology).
~ Experience:
~5+ years of project leadership experience within a high‑tech R&D;, aerosp
