    • Provide subject-matter expertise and mentorship to emerging engineering talent within the team.
    • Continuously monitor technological progressions in the field of optics and strategically incorporate these developments into the product roadmap.
    • Implement design-for-manufacturing (DFM) principles specifically tailored to optical systems, including the development of specialized alignment and assembly tooling as well as automation and validation scripts.
    • Engage in the prototyping and empirical testing phases for optical subsystems and complete systems.
    • Perform mutually exclusive and collectively exhaustive root cause of failure analysis in conjunction with empirical validation.
    Qualifications, Skills, Knowledge & Abilities
    • BA/BS in optical engineering, physics, or related field and 10+ years of relevant work experience (industry preferred).
    • Advanced competency in the application of optical design and simulation software (e.g. Zemax or Code V), coupled with expertise in analysis script development (e.g. Python or Matlab).
    • Exceptional interpersonal communication abilities tailored to both technical and executive audiences and adeptness in interdisciplinary team engagement.
    • Comprehensive grasp of both ray optics and Fourier optics principles.
    • Adept in the practical assembly, calibration, and diagnostics of high-accuracy optical systems.
    • Analytical capabilities to resolve operational and reliability complications within optical systems.
    • Other duties as assigned.
    At Ultima Genomics, your base pay is one part of your total compensation package. This role pays between $155,000 and $175,000, if performed in California, and your actual base pay will depend on your skills, qualifications, experience, and location.
