Job Summary
Job Tittle: Optical Engineer
Onsite Role- Lexington MA
Responsibilities :
planning and design in preparation for extensive assembly integration and test activities in laboratory clean rooms. Planning for optical system assembly integration and test: develop alignment approach derive requirements outline process flow and develop any GSE needed. Working with mechanical and opto-mechanical engineers to create mounts and assemblies with needed degrees of freedom and adjustment resolution. Executing assembly and alignment of free-space and fiber-optic optical assemblies including integration of sensors and performance characterization. Specifying custom optical components such as mirrors lenses and filters assessing supplier capabilities and inspecting/testing procured optics. Working with free-space optical tooling such as interferometer polarimeter laser beam profiler alignment telescope and/or autocollimator. Working with fiber optic cables and components including test methods. Writing AI&T procedures documenting build activities and participating in troubleshooting and issue resolution. Running environmental test campaigns to characterize assemblies performance over operating and survival conditions (e.g thermal cycling altitude chamber vibration TVac).
Required Skills:
-Three-to-five years of optical AI&T experience
-Experience assembling aligning and testing refractive and reflective optical components and systems.
-Working familiarity with optical alignment instruments such as interferometers autocollimators alignment telescopes theodolites profilometers and/or wavefront sensors.
-Broad understanding of optical fabrication techniques and shall be capable of evaluating vendors for custom manufacturing requirements.
-Experience performing incoming inspection on a variety of procured items and therefore needs a working knowledge of optical fabrication specifications.
-Ability to work effectively with small multi-disciplinary teams of engineers and specialists with varying experience levels.
Preferred Skills:
-Familiarity with optical design code (Zemax CodeV etc) to establish component and alignment tolerances and/or troubleshoot any assemblys performance issues.
-Preference will be given to candidates who have the above experience with space systems and/or lasercom systems.
Education: Bachelors with 3years relevant work experience.
US Citizenship is required due to Nature of the work.
