We are seeking an optical engineer with a proven track record of innovation in optics across multiple industries to join our team in Meta Reality Labs. As the Tech Lead, you will define the technical roadmap for designing, testing and productizing optical systems and sub-components that are core to delivering transformative experiences in Meta AR/VR products. You will join an agile team that is laser-focused on innovating and productizing imaging and illumination consumer electronic optical systems that are fully hardened for high-volume manufacturing (HVM).
Optical Engineering Tech Lead Responsibilities:
- Define the technical roadmap for a team of about 20 optical engineers involved in the design and productization of optics for cameras and depth perception systems.
- Own the team's innovation pipeline by identifying new technologies to investigate and shepherd them through a rigorous process for readying them for productization.
- Define templates for documentation, work practices for the entire engineering team to adapt.
- Design novel optical component design including refractive optics, diffractive optics and meta surfaces.
- Contribute in design validation, lab characterization and failure analysis of optical components and systems.
- Help derive the specs for components from the module specs.
- Operate in heavily cross functional and ambiguous work environments and bring clarity.
- Ability to articulate technical vision and communicate complex concepts with extreme clarity upwards, downwards and sideways.
- Ability and willingness to travel domestically and internationally as business needs dictate.
Minimum Qualifications:
- BS in the field of Optics, Physics or other optics-related fields with 10+ years or experience.
- 5+ years experience of taking optical products from concept phase to shipping phase in the consumer electronics industry (high volume products).
- 5+ years of experience in developing optical systems with multi-disciplinary teams.
- Knowledge of geometrical optics, physical optics and aberration theory.
- Knowledge and experience with optics fundamentals including imaging, illumination, radiometry and colorimetry.
- Proficiency in optical tolerancing and yield estimation. Knowledge of industry in miniature optical components and assembly tolerances.
- Knowledge of passive lens athermalization concepts as well as active auto-focus systems.
- Working knowledge of opto-mechanical principles.
- 5+ years of experience with hands-on test, prototype build, debugging, and calibration of optical systems, equipment, and instrumentation.
- Hands-on experience of optical instruments such as interferometer, spectrometer, scatterometer, lab microscope, Image Master type lens qualification tools.
- 8+ years experience with at least one optical CAD (eg: Zemax, CodeV for imaging system design/tolerancing) and 5+ years experience with at least one non-sequential optical CAD (eg: Zemax, LightTools, Fred, ASAP) for illumination design and stray light analysis.
Preferred Qualifications:
- Advanced degree (MS or PhD) in the field of Optical Engineering, Physics, Electrical Engineering or related degree.
- Experience with NIR optics and deep UV optics.
- Optical systems analysis and modeling experience. Eg: estimating SNR in optical systems, calculating light budgets for low photon detection systems.
- Familiarity with camera sensor architectures.
- Familiarity with camera image processing pipeline fundamentals.
- Experience in de-bugging and failure analysis of optical systems including knowledge of typical failure analysis equipment.
- Familiarity with FDTD and RCWA solvers. Knowledge of Physical Optics simulation software packages such as Virtual Lab/Lumerical/R-Soft.
- Proficiency in data acquisition and image processing in MATLAB, Python, LabVIEW.
