The Systems Engineering Project Manager leads the design, development, and delivery of advanced thin-film optical metrology instrumentation. This hybrid technical/managerial role integrates deep systems engineering expertise with full lifecycle project leadership.
You will architect next generation precision electromechanical and electro optical systems, develop and evaluate system models, and drive cross functional engineering programs from concept through commercialization. This role requires strong analytical capability, excellent communication skills, and the ability to guide multidisciplinary engineering teams in a fast paced environment.

Systems Engineering (Technical - ~70%)

• Develop systemlevel architecture, specifications, and modeling for precision optical metrology platforms.
• Lead design and evaluation of critical subsystems including:
• Nanopositioning systems (piezos, voice coils, precision motors, flexures)
• Highprecision sensors (optical, capacitive, interferometric, strainbased)
• Electromechanical and optomechanical assemblies
• Conduct advanced modeling, simulation, and system optimization using tools such as ZEMAX, ANSYS, MATLAB, Simulink, ANSYS, and LabVIEW.
• Build, test, and characterize prototype systems using interferometers, vibrometers, and advanced test setups.
• Drive systemlevel performance analyses, controlsystem tuning, and system stability evaluations.

Project Management (Leadership - ~30%)

• Lead crossfunctional engineering development programs with full accountability for project success.
• Define detailed project requirements aligned with customer, manufacturing, and business needs.
• Create, monitor, and maintain project schedules, deliverables, and dashboards.
• Coordinate engineering deliverables across hardware, optics, software, reliability, service, and manufacturing.
• Identify risks, drive mitigation plans, resolve open issues, and keep programs on track.
• Organize and maintain all technical documentation and ensure compliance with Bruker's NPD process.
• Communicate project status clearly to management, customers, and development partners.
• Capture lessons learned and support continuous improvement initiatives.

KNOWLEDGE, SKILLS & ABILITIES
