Laser Safety Design Engineer Camera Hardware

Do you love taking on big challenges that require exceptionally creative solutions Do you have a deep understanding of what an incredible camera experience should be As part of our Camera Hardware Technologies group youll help design the innovative technology that pushes the boundaries of imaging and sensing in each generation of Apple products. Youll design and develop groundbreaking ideas for everything involved in our camera systems from visible and IR illumination sources to sensors. Youll collaborate with teams across Apple to research design develop test and qualify camera hardware for Apple products. Together well craft an imaging and optical sensing experience that redefines what millions of customers can expect from their Apple devices.

As a Camera Hardware Laser Safety Engineer you will be responsible for the design and development of innovative camera hardware including visible and IR illumination technologies that enhance the imaging and depth sensing capabilities of Apple products. You will ensure optically safe illumination architecture of these applications. The primary responsibility of the person in this job is the ownership of end-to-end laser safety of illumination modules from architecture and design to validation and high-volume production.

Design implement and specify optical and electrical subsystems architecture for mitigating optical hazardsnValidate optical safety architecture using simulations (LightTools Zemax Matlab) and experimental lab setupsnCollaborate with x-functional teams (system optical electrical product safety firmware operations etc.) to understand and solve issues related to design and implementation of laser safety architecture and processesnUse analytical methods (FMEA FTA) to track use cases and failure modes that violate laser safety compliancenStay abreast of the latest industry optical radiation safety specifications such as IEC-60825 IEC-62471 IEC-62368 etc.

BS in Physics Electrical or Optical Engineering or equivalent and a minimum of 10 years of relevant working with free-space laser and/or optical systems engineering for imaging and collaborating with multidisciplinary teams (optical electrical mechanical).nExperience with optical modeling (LightTools Zemax CodeV etc.) and/or data analysis (Matlab JMP etc.) software.

MS or PhD degree in Physics Electrical or Optical Engineering or related experience in developing high-volume electro-optical working with optical safety standards IEC-60825 and with manufacturing statistics/Monte Carlo in custom silicon design is a with component module and system-level design process and test compliance documentation to enable manufacturability in high volume is a plus.
