Laser Safety Design Engineer, Camera Hardware

What you'll do

• Design and specify optical and electrical subsystems architecture to mitigate optical hazards.
• Own end-to-end laser safety for illumination modules from initial architecture to high-volume production.
• Validate optical safety architecture using simulations in LightTools, Zemax, and Matlab.
• Conduct experimental lab setups to verify optical safety requirements.
• Use analytical methods like FMEA and FTA to track failure modes violating laser safety compliance.
• Ensure all hardware meets industry optical radiation safety specifications such as IEC-60825 and IEC-62471.
• Develop and qualify visible and IR illumination technologies for imaging and depth sensing.

What we're looking for

• BS in Physics, Electrical or Optical Engineering, or equivalent, and a minimum of 10 years of relevant experience.
• Experience working with free-space laser and/or optical systems engineering for imaging and sensing.
• Experience collaborating with multidisciplinary teams including optical, electrical, and mechanical.
• Experience with optical modeling software such as LightTools, Zemax, or CodeV.
• Experience with data analysis software such as Matlab or JMP.
• MS, or PhD degree in Physics, Electrical or Optical Engineering or related field (preferred).
• Industry experience in developing high-volume electro-optical modules (preferred).
• Experience with optical safety standards IEC-60825 and IEC-62471 (preferred).
