Your mission

  • Translate optical layouts into precision 3D designs, including mounts, housings, alignment mechanisms, and structural components.
  • Ensure all designs satisfy strict requirements for thermal stability, vibration performance, structural integrity, and tolerance analysis.
  • Actively drive the assembly, alignment, testing, and troubleshooting of optomechanical subsystems to achieve system-level performance.
  • Transition prototypes to production by applying DfM/DfA principles to improve reliability, repeatability, and assembly efficiency.
  • Interface with optical, mechanical, electrical, and systems teams to guarantee seamless, coherent subsystem integration.
  • Partner with external suppliers and manufacturing vendors to oversee component realization and resolve fabrication issues.
  • Define testing strategies to validate designs, diagnose performance deviations, and implement corrective actions.
  • Act as the organizational reference for optomechanical engineering, mentoring peers and promoting a ownership-driven, hands-on culture.

Your Qualifications

  • MSc or PhD in Mechanical Engineering, Optics, Mechatronics, or a related field.
  • 10+ years of relevant industry experience (or 5+ years with a PhD in optomechanics).
  • Proven hands-on experience designing, integrating, and implementing mechanical systems from optical layouts (e.g., Zemax, Code V).
  • Proficient in 3D CAD tools (SolidWorks, NX, or Creo) for precision mechanical design.
  • Solid understanding of optical alignment, tolerancing, error budgeting, thermal stability, and vibration mitigation.
  • Pragmatic problem-solver with a hands-on willingness to work in lab and production environments.
  • Strong cross-disciplinary communication skills; fluent in English (Dutch is a plus).

Why us?

  • Work at the forefront of nanofabrication technology, contributing to innovations in research and industry.
