TL;DR · FLS Production Engineer, Optical Alignment & Metrology

The FLS Production Engineer - Optical Alignment & Metrology Competency (Nights) joins the Production Engineering department to support lithography system manufacturing. This role involves spending 75% of the time in a cleanroom providing direct support to production processes and troubleshooting optical alignment, metrology, and module test issues. Key responsibilities include performing re-computations of nominal optical designs, correcting optical aberrations, and running image processing algorithms to extract flatness information from interferometer data. The candidate will analyze Matlab scripts, develop OCAPs, and support diagnostics qualification. Required technical skills include proficiency in Code-V, Zemax, MATLAB, LabVIEW, and Python. The role requires deep knowledge of geometric and wave optics, interferometers, and Shack-Hartmann sensors to solve complex engineering issues within high-tech production environments and complex manufacturing processes.

What you'll do

  • Provide direct support to production processes and troubleshoot issues within the cleanroom.
  • Troubleshoot optical alignment, metrology, module test, and final qualification issues.
  • Perform re-computation of nominal optical designs and correct optical aberrations.
  • Run image processing algorithms to extract flatness information from interferometer data.
  • Analyze Matlab scripts and interrogate database code to support manufacturing needs.
  • Develop OCAPs, Fishbones, and troubleshooting guidelines for production staff.
  • Evaluate and disposition failed parts while proposing technical solutions.
  • Support the development of manufacturing procedures and technical work instructions.

What we're looking for

  • Bachelor of Science in Optical Engineering for 0+ years of experience or Master of Science in Optical Engineering for 0+ years of experience.
  • 2+ years of experience in an engineering environment (required for Job Grade 7).
  • Working knowledge of diverse optical metrology setups including interferometers, Shack-Hartmann sensors, and polarimetry.
  • Working knowledge of geometric optics, wave optics, Gaussian propagation, and aberration theory.
  • Working knowledge of image/signal/data process algorithms, statistics, and software development.
  • Ability to read and interpret optical, mechanical, and electrical drawings.
  • Knowledge of Code-V and/or Zemax (preferred).
  • Knowledge of MATLAB, LabVIEW, and Python (preferred).
  • Experience in a production environment with high-tech products and complex production processes.
  • Experience in Lean Manufacturing.
  • Working knowledge of Optical-Electrical sensors is a plus.
  • Experience in technical Production Engineering and quality methodology such as SPC and FMEA is a plus.
  • Working knowledge of NX, Teamcenter, and SAP is a plus.
  • Legal authorization to access controlled technology as defined by U.S. Export Administration Regulations.
