Description
- Design and execution of optical sensors, including building simulations / models, model verification, sensor prototyping including interface of optical sensors with mixed signal electronic circuits, and test and metrology strategies for manufacturing optical sensors.- Hands-on design and bring-up of characterization setups. Establish design verification goals and instrumentation requirements, develop and implement detailed characterization plans, and prioritize activities and next steps. Support verification of production test via electrical / optical design reviews and lab correlation measurements.- Simulation/analysis using a variety of software tools to support design verification and characterization (e.g. Python, Matlab, Zemax, LightTools, JMP, etc.) Develop detailed models to resolve SNR link budgets, and electrical and optical system integration requirements.- Collaborate with multi-functional teams to deliver innovative sensing solutions. Drive technical activities and discussions with external vendors.- Lead hypothesis-driven failure analysis, root-cause diagnosis, and system-level problem solving to provide design feedback. Analyze data to draw conclusions and improve product design/manufacturability. - Travel to support design/production/supplier teams as necessary. Business travel to support product development (10%).
Key Qualifications
  • Strong background in optics, optical sensor and system design, and optical test and metrology.
  • Expertise in optical sensor development spanning concept design, hardware prototyping including interface of optical sensors with mixed signal electronic circuits, design verification and problem solving in a rapid production environment.
  • Optical system design and modeling (geometric and physical optics in Zemax, LightTools, or similar tools). Experience with FDTD software is a plus.
  • Design and bring-up of opto-mechanical lab setups, sensor characterization, failure analysis and simulation correlation.
