Optical Engineer

Responsibilities
You’ll be joining the Optics team:

 The optics team is responsible for the whole optical path of the Nova tools starting from the light sources, through core optical components, and to the sensors
The optical path of Nova tools consists of diverse high-end elements from different optics branches providing state-of-the-art performance at the system level.
Team members are involved in diverse development phases, from initial research and characterization to concept design and feasibility study to the final design and qualification.
All team members operate in a multi-tasking environment, leading various research, design, and engineering activities in parallel.

What will you do as an Optical Engineer?

Apply physical models, simulations, and analyses of tool-related physical effects
Conduct Lab tests for feasibility studies, root cause analysis, and design qualifications
Full responsibility for the light sources, optic fibers, optical modules, and sensors
Managing and controlling the vendors
