• Translate customer specifications into detailed design requirements; collaborate across mechanical, electrical, firmware/software, and manufacturing teams for system integration and prototyping
• Guide validation of designs via lab testing, metrology, and performance measurement (e.g., MTF, distortion, SNR, wavefront)
• Mentor and support junior optical engineers and cross‑functional partners, establishing design best practices and documentation
• Drive innovation through research into new optical technologies, materials, coatings, and manufacturing techniques, informing future product strategies
• Drive critical technical communications / negotiations with customers to ensure optical solutions align with performance, cost, and manufacturability goals.
