Opto-Mechanical Engineer
California, USA
Introduction Morson International is currently recruiting for a Staff Opto-Mechanical Engineer to join a leading company in the semiconductor industry. The hiring company is world renowned and offers a collaborative working environment where teamwork and hard work are rewarded. This is a rare opportunity for a Staff Opto-Mechanical Engineer to join a growing company and work alongside some of the most innovative minds in the industry. The products produced require high speed, magnetically levitated stages with sub-nanometer accuracy, robotic mask delivery systems, mechatronic devices to shape and correct the laser illumination source, and optical modules that can detect sub-nanometer alignment errors and pattern distortions. Temperature controlled to milli-kelvins, particulate free, and operating in complete vacuum, the technical challenges are endless. Solving these requires expertise in servo controls, mechatronics, mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, embedded software engineering, optics, physics, manufacturing, industrialization, and more. If you like extreme challenges and want to help bring the next generation of technology to the world, then this is the company for you. Job Mission We are looking for a talented Staff Opto-Mechanical Engineer with a strong and diverse background in mechanical design for optical assemblies to join our DUV Platforms team. This position will be a key contributor in sustaining and developing the optomechanical assemblies in our DUV lasers. Job Description Mechanical design of optical assemblies Design mechanisms for positioning and aligning optics (translation, tip/tilt focus, and rotation). Designing mounts for prisms, gratings, mirrors, and other optical components Calculating mechanical tolerance stack ups, specifically as they effect optical alignment Analyze the mechanical and thermal stability of optical assemblies using FEA and other analytical tools. Contribute to the development of alignment and assembly processes for optical instruments Collaborate with other engineering groups such as Optics engineers and Systems engineers on optical sub-assembly design. Collaborate with vendors on the fabrication of mechanical parts, mechanisms, and optics Other responsibilities may be added as business conditions arise Education Requires a B.S in Mechanical or Optical Engineering. (M.S or Ph.D. Preferred) Experience Minimum of10 years industrial, relevant work related experience Expert knowledge of opto-mechanics Experience designing optical assemblies Experience designing mounts for optical components Proficient with CAD software. Creo is preferred. Finite Element Modeling experience (structural, thermal, vibration) Strong working knowledge of optics Experience with optical adhesives Familiar with outgassing and low outgassing materials Ability to do mechanical tolerance analysis with an understanding of the impact on optical performance Experience working with machine shops and optics fabricators Bonus skill: working knowledge of an optical ray trace software (Zemax, Oslo) Context of the position PHYSICAL DEMANDS AND WORK ENVIRONMENT The physical demands described here are representative of those that must be met by an employee to successfully perform the essential functions of this job.
