工作职责
As a Senior Optics Design Engineer, you will engage with an experienced cross-disciplinary staff to conceive and design innovative consumer products. You will work closely with an internal interdisciplinary team, and outside partners to drive key aspects of product definition, execution, and test. You must be responsive, flexible, and able to succeed within an open collaborative peer environment. In this role, you will: • Work with a component engineering team and product engineering team to provide rapid prototyping and characterization of optics or imaging systems • Provide support for modelling and design for prototyping and manufacturing of lightguides and lenses. • Use software tools (LightTools, Zemax etc.) to model system optics characteristics • Work with cross-functional team to draft component specification, design reviews, work with vendors to manufacture parts and validate results by specifying test parameters and methodologies • Communicate and manage overseas component manufacturing vendors A day in the life As a senior optical design engineer, the day begins with reviewing simulation results from the latest lens design iteration. I analyze optical performance metrics like sharpness,aberrations and image quality, ensuring the design meets specifications. Meetings with cross-functional teams follow, where we discuss project timelines, material constraints, and integration challenges. Afternoons are spent refining models in Zemax or CODE V, testing prototypes, or collaborating with the manufacturing team to ensure seamless production. Occasionally, I mentor engineers, reviewing their work and offering guidance. The day wraps up with documenting progress and planning next steps for future optimizations.
Location: Shenzhen/Xiamen/Taiwan About the Role: We are building Eve, a next-generation facial skin scanner that delivers clinic-grade imaging through multi-mode illumination (e.g., cross/parallel polarization, VIS, NIR/IR, UV/Wood’s). We’re looking for an Optical Engineer to own end-to-end optical system design—from illumination architecture and imaging optics to IR tuning, calibration, validation, and production readiness. Key Responsibilities: ● Define and architect the imaging optics + illumination system for a facial skin scanner (full-face coverage, consistent lighting, repeatable results). ● Design and integrate multi-mode illumination: cross-polarized / parallel-polarized visible, NIR/IR illumination, UV/Wood’s, including LED selection, optical path, diffusers/light guides, polarizers, filters, baffles, and stray-light control. ● Lead IR/NIR tuning end-to-end: Define IR wavelength strategy (e.g., 850/940nm) and component selection (emitters, bandpass filters, lenses, sensor sensitivity). Tune IR illumination intensity, uniformity, and thermal stability (aging, temperature drift, binning). Collaborate with ISP/algorithm teams on IR image pipeline tuning (exposure/gain, denoise, shading correction, hot pixels, temporal stability). Establish IR calibration (flat-field/shading, spectral response consistency, cross-device normalization) and factory tuning flow. ● Drive camera + lens selection and optical performance targets (MTF/DOF, distortion, FOV, vignetting, spectral response for VIS + NIR). ● Perform optical simulation and tolerance analysis (uniformity, polarization extinction, IR stray-light & ghosting, vignetting, distortion, alignment sensitivity). ● Build/iterate prototypes; own optical validation (uniformity maps, SNR, resolution, polarization efficiency, IR sensitivity and repeatability, spectral validation). ● Work cross-functionally with ME/EE/FW/ID/Manufacturing to ensure mechanical integration, eye-safety considerations, manufacturability, and reliability. ● Create optical specifications, DVP&R, and support EVT/DVT/PVT builds; manage suppliers/ODMs and production ramp.
