Their innovative approach is making connectivity more accessible, resilient, and sustainable, solving problems from economic inclusion to environmental impact. They’re looking for an Optical Systems Engineer to join their growing team. In this role, you’ll have the opportunity to design, develop, and test advanced optical subsystems, working on technology that operates in some of the most demanding environments. You’ll collaborate with a talented engineering team to define requirements, model system performance, and validate your designs through rigorous testing, all while contributing to groundbreaking developments in the industry. What sets this opportunity apart is the chance to work on truly transformative technology, where your expertise in optical system design, tools like Zemax, and hands-on lab testing will have a direct impact.
