Senior Mechanical Engineer; OCS

Requirements

• Strong communication & interpersonal skills across engineering, operations, quality, and supplier teams
• Willingness to support colleagues and external partners to achieve OCS schedule, quality, and build-readiness objectives
• Exercises independent judgement in resolving design, interface, and manufacturability tradeoffs
• Continuous learning mindset with interest in photonics packaging, process development, and production scale-up
• Execution of deliverables against schedule & quality targets in a fast-moving productization environment
• Experience with subcontractor management, supplier technical coordination, and manufacturing partner support
• Master’s Degree or above in Mechanical Engineering, Optomechanical Engineering, Packaging Engineering, or a relevant discipline
• 5 years of experience, with a focus on optomechanical design, optoelectronic packaging, photonics packaging, or precision mechanical systems

• The Senior Mechanical Design Engineer is responsible for designing highly complex optomechanical and optoelectronic packages for the Optical Circuit Switch (OCS) program
• You will work closely with photonics, packaging, process, test, quality, supply chain, and external manufacturing partners to translate OCS architecture and requirements into buildable, manufacturable, and verifiable package designs
• Strong design skills incorporating mechanics of materials, thermodynamics, electronics integration, optical alignment, and precision design principles are a must
• Ownership of OCS package and subassembly designs from prototype through production readiness
• Expertise in Design for Manufacturability, Design for Assembly, and supplier-ready build documentation
• Expertise with GD&T for precision optomechanical interfaces, datums, fixtures, and inspection plans
• Expertise with tolerance analysis methods for optical alignment, mechanical stack-up, FAU attach, and package interfaces
• Generate and maintain OCS process flow documentation, build travelers, and assembly sequence definition
• Conduct DFMEA, PFMEA, CTQ mapping, and risk analysis heat maps for OCS package and process development
• Fixture design & fabrication for alignment, attach, metrology, handling, and production build support
• Test set-up design & fabrication for optical, mechanical, thermal, and process verification activities
• Generate & maintain BOM’s, build standards, material callouts, and configuration-controlled package documentation
• Generate & maintain Specification & Drawing Trees for OCS package, subassembly, fixture, and supplier documentation
• Ability to execute basic structural, thermal, warpage, and tolerance analyses to down-select designs and reduce build risk
• Comfortable with PDM / Arena, ECO discipline, drawing release, supplier documentation packages, and revision control
