Role Overview :

As an Optical Engineer, your role will be crucial in supporting the design, integration, and testing of state-of-the-art optical systems. This position will involve hands-on tasks such as assembling, calibrating, and inspecting optical components, directly impacting the product development process.

  • Reporting & communication
  • – deliver weekly progress summaries, support clinical testing, and interface with customers.

    Lab & Optical Care

  • Maintain and calibrate all lab equipment used for optical assembly and testing.
  • Inspect, clean, and handle optics with precision to keep all surfaces contaminant-free.
  • Diagnose and resolve technical issues in optical systems; flag component shortages and trigger re-orders.
