- Develop and refine optical layouts, ray-based concepts, and system-level performance trade-offs.
- Work closely with mechanical engineering to ensure robust opto-mechanical integration, alignment, and tolerance control.
- Support design for manufacturability, serviceability, and scalability of optical assemblies.
Embedded Firmware and Image Acquisition:
- Develop and support Linux-based drivers and low-level firmware for image acquisition, sensor configuration, timing, synchronization, and data transfer.
- Interface imaging hardware with embedded processors, FPGAs, or SoCs using MIPI, SPI, I²C, LVDS, or similar protocols.
- Support bring-up and debugging of prototype imaging hardware and firmware in the lab.
Testing, Validation, and Lab Ownership:
- Establish, maintain, and continuously improve an optics, radiometry, and imaging test laboratory providing turnkey internal capabilities for development, testing, and safety verification.
- Define and execute optical, radiometric, and image-quality test plans (e.g., MTF, SNR, uniformity, spectral response, stray light).
- Design and build custom test fixtures, alignment tools, and experimental setups.
- Perform hands-on testing, troubleshooting, failure analysis, and root cause investigations.
- Analyze test data to guide design iteration and performance optimization.
- Support verification and validation activities to meet product, regulatory, and quality requirements.
Cross-Functional Collaboration:
- Work closely with electrical, mechanical, firmware, software, and systems engineers to ensure seamless integration of imaging subsystems.
- Interface with suppliers and vendors for sensors, optics, illumination components, and test equipment.
- Support R&amp;D cost estimates for imaging components, lab equipment, and tooling.
Documentation and Compliance:
- Create and maintain clear documentation of imaging designs, test methods, calibration procedures, and validation results.
- Support regulatory submissions and audits by providing traceable design and test documentation.
- Ensure imaging subsystems comply with relevant medical device standards and guidance (e.g., IEC 62471, IEC 60601, ISO 13485).
- Participate in design reviews, risk analyses, and design history file (DHF) activities.
- Ensure product designs meet safety, EMC, environmental, and industry compliance standards (e.g., UL, CE, FCC, ISO).
Stakeholder Engagement:
- Support technical discussions with suppliers, manufacturing partners, and internal stakeholders.
- Assist with product launches, field issue investigations, and post-market support as needed.
- Translate clinical, system, and business requirements into actionable imaging engineering specifications. 
MINIMUM EXPERIENCE AND EDUCATION REQUIREMENTS  
- Bachelor’s degree in Optical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Physics, Systems Engineering, or a related field (Master’s or PhD preferred).
- 5+ years of experience in optical, photonics, imaging, or vision system development (medical device experience strongly preferred).
