Optical Engineer Intern

Its fun to work in a company where people truly BELIEVE in what theyre doing!
Were committed to bringing passion and customer focus to the business.

Key responsibilities

• Design and simulation of optical components (e.g. lenses diffusers diffractive/holographic optical elements lensed fiber etc.) and opto-mechanical systems for beam-conditioning of free-space and fiber-coupled semiconductor lasers
• Design Verification Testing (DVT) characterization of high-power single & multi-mode laser diodes for telecom industrial and consumer markets (e.g. spectral locking noise coherence collapse Stimulated Brillion Scattering fiber/volume Bragg gratings high-speed characterization the field of view)
• Cost-effective tolerancing of low-cost manufacturable optical components for high-volume consumer applications
• Define performance specification limits for high-power single-mode and multi-mode laser diodes (e.g. LIV WPE spectral)
• Work with electrical/mechanical engineering and assembly/packaging staff on the design development and packaging of photonic optical systems
• Support development implementation of test equipment in R&D environment needed to perform DVT characterization tests including software/hardware integration
• Document and present characterization results

Minimum Qualifications

• Qualified candidates will be enrolled in a PhD or Masters degree program in semiconductor electrical optical physical engineering or a related major.

Desired Qualifications

• Strong foundation in physics (e.g. lasers) optical sciences (e.g. coherence speckle diffraction imaging) and/or electrical engineering (e.g. electricity & magnetism)
• Hands-on experience or equivalent skill level in optical component/system design for photonic and/or fiber-coupled systems and spectral/performance characterization of laser devices in Telecom and/or other applications
• Strong analytic and data analysis/mining skills via Excel Minitab and/or JMP
• Familiarity in LabView is desirable but not required
• Experienced in development and implementation of test setups for R&D environment
• Communicates/contributes effectively in cross-functional teams (esp. with manufacturing)
• Experience in DOE SPC DFX GR&R and GR-468-CORE qualification
• MS degree or above preferred in semiconductor electrical optical or physical engineering
