Optical Design Engineer - Biophotonics

In this Optical Design Engineer role, you will leverage your experience in designing and tolerancing optical systems to lead efforts to design and manufacture ultra-compact, high-precision micro-optical systems. You will start out with novel optics design concepts and turn them into optical systems optimized for mass production. Minimum Qualifications BS degree in Optics, Physics, EE or a related field Experience with at least one commercial optics simulation tools, such as Zemax, Code V, FRED, LightTools, or equivalent Programming experience using MATLAB, Python, C, or similar tools Preferred Qualifications 3+ years of relevant industry experience MS or PhD degree in Optics, Physics, EE or a related field Understanding of optical physics fundamentals Familiarity with the design, simulation, optimization, sensitivity and tolerance analysis of complex free space optical systems, with a preference for high-precision micro-optical system design experience Experience designing incoherent and coherent optical systems Experience with the design of optics systems for sensing or metrology applications. Experience in one or more of the following areas: optics design for manufacturability, stray light analysis, physical optics, or coherent optical effects The ability to work well in an interdisciplinary team environment
