Job Description

DESCRIPTION

Project Kuiper is an initiative to launch a constellation of Low Earth Orbit satellites that will provide low-latency, high-speed broadband connectivity to unserved and underserved communities around the world.

You will join a multi-discipline team responsible for development for optical communication system between satellites. You will be responsible for design, build and verification of optical systems for optical Intersatellite link systems.

Key job responsibilities
• Design, build and qualify optical metrology stations for build, test and manufacturing of optical Intersatellite link system.
• Develop clear understanding of optical tests needed for qualifying optical systems
• Conduct optical module design validation test and prepare optical test engineering report for Program Reviews as requested.
• Analyze technical problems arising in optical testing and manufacturing and develop optimal strategies for solving them.
• Develop new and improve existing optical measurement methods, using optical metrology equipment like interferometer, camera, imaging systems, Hart-Mann sensor for optical module integration, alignment, and testing.
• Analyze and propose new solutions to optical systems.
• Write MATLAB/Python scripts to analyze and plot data required for stakeholder review.
• Develop measurement process and procedures for volume manufacturing and transfer it production team.
