Project/Team Context

The Opto-Mechanical Engineering team works closely with Optical Designers, Production Engineers, and others on the design and development of novel ‘optical engines’ for our next generations of Augmented Reality devices. Team members design opto-mechanical subsystems within the optical engine, as well as the tooling and processes used to assemble and characterize them. This role will be in the Boulder office, where these activities focus on building early prototypes of these devices and processes.

Success Metrics:

A successful team member in this role will take ownership of aspects of our development processes. Leading the design and implementation of custom tooling, validating the usage of that tooling for device assembly, and documenting the design and operation of this tooling for transfer to production environments. In addition, this team member will be a contributor to design reviews, drawing reviews, and tech transfer activities, providing meaningful input to cross-functional teams to improve system-level design decisions.

Education: Bachelor’s degree

Experience: Minimum 5+ years of experience

Relocation: This position will not cover relocation expenses

Travel: No

Local Preferred: Yes

Note: Must be able to work on a W2 basis (No C2C)
