DescriptionLightmatter is seeking an experienced Opto-Mechanical Engineer to join our Laser and Photonics Packaging Team. In this role, you will be responsible for the optical and mechanical design, component selection, and packaging of next-generation laser and photonics modules, ensuring optimal performance, reliability, and manufacturability.
Responsibilities
Lead the optical and mechanical design of laser modules and detachable connectors.
Communicate design concepts, technical findings, and project status clearly.
Contribute to optical design of lenses and FAU arrays, and possess a strong understanding of isolator technologies.
Design packaging solutions for DFB lasers in Chip-on-Submount (CoS) configurations and for heterogeneously integrated III-V on Silicon wafers.
Ensure PIC designs are optimized for assembly processes such as wire bonding and flip-chip bonding.
Select critical components, including optical assemblies, electrical connectors and optical connectors.
Collaborate with suppliers and OSATs (Outsourced Semiconductor Assembly and Test) from prototype manufacturing through validation and into volume production.
Collaborate with cross-functional teams to ensure seamless integration and successful product delivery.
