Optics Engineer II

What's the Job?

Build and characterize complex, high precision optical sub-assemblies for advanced quantum computing systems

Troubleshoot and perform failure analysis on optical and opto-mechanical systems to support continuous improvement

Design, align, integrate, and test prototype and proof-of-concept systems involving lasers, optics, fibers, electronics, software, and mechanical assemblies

Document results and communicate findings to cross-functional teams to support production readiness

Collect, analyze, graph, interpret, and present data clearly and concisely to support engineering decisions

What's Needed?

• A bachelor’s degree in an optics-related field (e.g., optics, physics, electrical engineering) with at least 2 years of hands-on experience with optical systems
• Experience integrating optical subassemblies into higher-level systems and supporting reliable, long-term operation
• Hands-on experience aligning, integrating, and testing prototype systems involving lasers, optics, fibers, electronics, software, and mechanical assemblies
• Experience with optical frequency noise reduction using active optics and closed-loop techniques
• Proficiency in documenting procedures and test plans through work instructions or standard operating procedures

About the Role

The ideal candidate will demonstrate strong problem-solving skills, attention to detail, and excellent communication abilities, which will align successfully in the organization.
