Responsibilities
Solve challenging science and engineering problems in the field of optics and photonics through critical thinking, developing new concepts, and application of new methods.
Develop system architectures, perform modeling and simulation, develop prototypes, conduct experiments, and demonstrate innovative technologies that are focused on optical sensor systems.
Apply experience in the use of modern programming, modeling, and simulation tools (e.g. COMSOL, ZEMAX, Matlab/Simulink, C/C++, Python, LabVIEW, OpenGL and OpenCV libraries, etc.) to help develop new technologies. Familiarity with any atmospheric laser propagation simulation software is a plus.
Work alongside with engineering and research teams in researching, selecting, evaluating, and/or developing component/system and packaging for specific applications.
Interact with government and non-government representatives to ensure the customer requirements are fully understood and addressed.
Lead/provide technical write-ups related to system, hardware, and software development on bids and proposals
Other duties as assigned by management.
