## About the role

We are seeking an Optomechanical Integration & Test Engineer to join our optics team. The team owns the full design-to-commissioning lifecycle for our tracker hardware: precision optical elements and the structures that position them, solar tracking architectures, structural analysis under wind and gravity loading, and the instrumentation that turns prototypes into measured systems. This role owns that last part.

## What they're looking for

- BS or MS in Optical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, Physics, or a closely related discipline
- 2+ years of hands-on laboratory, test, or integration experience with optical or precision hardware, graduate research and substantial internship work count
- Strong fundamentals in math and physics: you reason from first principles, estimate before you compute, and check every result against known limits before you believe it, we probe this hard in interviews
- Hands-on experience on an optical bench: mounting, aligning, and characterizing optics, and the care and cleanliness habits that precision components demand
- Instrumentation fundamentals: sensor selection, signal conditioning, calibration, and DAQ integration
- Python for test automation and data analysis: instrument control, numpy/pandas data reduction, publication-quality plots
