Role Overview
As a Senior Opto-Mechanical Engineer within our Opto-Mechanical Engineering team, the candidate shall contribute to our product development by delivering designs, analysis, building and testing state of the art optical assemblies. They would be a part of a multi-disciplinary team that brings virtual display concepts to reality. Key Responsibilities • Contribute to the development of tools for assembly and characterization of Client AR technology demonstration devices. • Prepare and review ASME Y14.5/ISO GPS compliant technical drawings. • Create new system concepts incorporating miniature optics into Client opto-electronic devices. • Participate in activities related to design, fabrication, operation, application, testing, and production activities in the offi ce. • Develop procedures and documentation for alignment and assembly of optical assemblies and sub-assemblies. • Work closely with local shops, CMs, and cross-functional internal Magic Leap teams to: evaluate DFM feedback, analyze its impact on system performance, and integrate required design changes into complex consumer devices. • Participate in collaborative meetings with multidisciplinary teams to design fi xtures, calibration equipment or production components. • Contribute to technical design reviews with the Program Manager representing the concerns of their functional specialty on the product development team. Required Skills & Experience • Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering or related fi eld, and 5+ years of related professional experience . • Hands-on experience using precision mechatronics for assembly and inspection of opto-mechanical systems. • Experienced in GD&T and tolerance stack analysis. • Familiarity with metrology tools such as CMMs/OCMMs and/or surface metrology tools (eg scanning confocal microscopes or white light interferometers). • Knowledge of color science, colorimetry, image quality metrics (camera and display), and algorithms for digital image processing. Magic Leap, Inc. Page 1 of 3 • Experienced in application of precision optical design concepts including common optical alignment definitions/approaches, kinematic constraint, and a thermalization. • Working knowledge of statistical processing software such as JMP. • Capable of developing concepts for fixtures, calibration equipment, or production components using 3D CAD (ie CREO) which meet the product requirements. Preferred Skills & Experience • Master's degree in Mechanical Engineering or related discipline. • Experience working in the AR/VR industry. • Experience using Creo and Windchill. • Experience working in clean room environments (don't worry, no full bunny suits!). • Experience in use of traditional machine tools like mills and lathes. • Experience with scripting in languages like Python or MATLAB. Technical Skills • PTC Creo w/ Windchill • Confluence and Jira • JMP • Python Education Requirements • Minimum Education: Bachelor's of Science • Preferred Education/Certifications: Master's of Science Project/Team Context The Opto-Mechanical Engineering team works closely with Optical Designers, Production Engineers, and others on the design and development of Client 'optical engines' for our next generations of Augmented Reality devices. Team members design opto-mechanical subsystems within the optical engine, as well as the tooling and processes used to assemble and characterize them. This role will be in our Boulder office, where these activities focus on building early prototypes of these devices and processes. Success Metrics A successful team member in this role will take ownership of aspects of our development processes. Leading the design and implementation of custom tooling, validating the usage of that tooling for device assembly, and documenting the design and operation of this tooling for transfer to production environments. In addition, this team member will be a contributor to design reviews, drawing reviews, and tech transfer activities, providing meaningful input to cross-functional teams to improve system-level design decisions.
