Job description

Position Overview

In this role, you will be the technical bridge between our high-power laser testing, cleanroom electro-optics manufacturing, and 3D printer process teams. You will work extensively with our high-power laser test platform, drive Light Valve (LV) development and support in the cleanroom, and troubleshoot complex system-level issues on our 3D printers.

Key Responsibilities

High-Power Laser Testing & Characterization (HP Mantis)

Execute standard tests on the HP Mantis laser platform and generate detailed device performance reports.

Characterize device performance to establish, rank, and maintain a clear inventory of backup devices for daily printing operations.

Troubleshoot system issues as they arise, collaborating cross-functionally with the internal OE team and external vendors (e.g., Laserline) to implement solutions.

Support the system setup, validation, and testing for the upcoming HP Mantis PL upgrade.

Light Valve (LV) Cleanroom Support & Development

Create and maintain accurate CAD drawings and assembly models for LV configurations, substrates, and engineering requirements.

Author and maintain procedural documentation, standard operating procedures (SOPs), and internal documentation highlighting build process deviations.

Act as the primary escalation point for cleanroom technicians, resolving issues related to daily tasks, LV builds, and quality inspections.

Review post-build inspection images and log results into our Airtable database.

Perform advanced consumable preparation beyond the scope of standard technicians, including precise mixing of alignment layers and epoxy materials.

Maintain, troubleshoot, and fix LV processing equipment, including specialized tools, computers, and supplies.

Support future development efforts for future cleanroom scoping

3D Printer Systems Support

Partner with the process engineering team to troubleshoot system-level 3D printer issues, actively isolating LV-specific failures from general system errors.

Execute the mechanical removal, replacement, and housing integration of LVs, ensuring backup devices are correctly set up.

Install new electro-optic devices into the printer systems and assist with system tuning, alignment, and calibration.

Ideal Qualifications

Experience in an electro-optical, semiconductor, or laser systems manufacturing environment.

Hands-on experience working in a cleanroom environment, specifically with sensitive optics, liquid crystal devices, or semiconductor wafers.

Advanced Proficiency in CAD software for creating assembly models and configuration drawings.

Experience executing DOEs and managing data tracking systems

Strong mechanical aptitude and troubleshooting skills, with the ability to diagnose complex hardware and equipment issues.
