You will collaborate with engineering partners and vendors to bring the first commercial generation of our precision instruments to market, with a strong focus on system reliability, alignment repeatability, and integration into automated workflows.
What is expected of you
* MSc degree with 5+ years of industry experience, or a PhD with at least 3+ years of industry experience.
* Minimum of 3 years of hands-on experience in designing and developing optical systems for scientific or industrial applications.
* Strong problem-solving skills and the ability to work effectively within multidisciplinary teams.
* Strong foundation in opto-mechanical design, including GD&T, metrology, and manufacturing processes.
* Familiar with FEA and simulation tools.
* Skilled in system error budgeting and troubleshooting complex issues.
* Excellent communication skills to collaborate effectively with peers, present findings, and contribute to technical reports.
* Experience in laser beam shaping or microscopy is a strong plus.
Our benefits
* Competitive salary with equity participation.
* 30 days of paid vacation plus public holidays.
* Company-sponsored Wellpass membership.
* Annual learning and development budget.
* Regular off-sites and team events.
