Senior Opto-Mechanical Engineer

Senior Opto-Mechanical Engineer

You will play a key role in the mechanical design and integration of cutting-edge laser and electro-optics systems for defence and security applications. Working closely with optical, electronics, and systems engineers, you will lead the development of precision opto-mechanical assemblies that meet stringent performance, environmental, and operational requirements. Your contributions will be critical in ensuring the robustness, alignment stability, and field readiness of these advanced systems.

Be Part of Our Success

• Lead the design, development, and integration of opto-mechanical subsystems for advanced laser and electro-optics systems, including optical mounts, enclosures, alignment mechanisms, thermal management, and vibration isolation
• Perform tolerance, structural, and thermal analyses using simulation tools to ensure mechanical stability and robustness of design
• Oversee the fabrication, assembly, and precision alignment of opto-mechanical subsystems, ensuring manufacturability and field readiness
• Perform prototyping, integration, environmental testing, ruggedisation, and optimisation for mobile or fixed deployment platforms
• Collaborate with system, electronics, and optical engineers to ensure mechanical designs meet performance and operational requirements
• Develop and maintain comprehensive and accurate technical documentation, including design records, test reports, and validation data, ensuring compliance with configuration management and industry standards
