Lead Opto-Mechanical Engineer, Google Augmented Reality

As a member of a fast-paced multi-disciplinary team, you use your creativity and range of engineering experience to explore solutions to a variety of engineering problems. As a mechanical engineer, you participate in the design, analysis, and prototyping of new concepts. You work in a manufacturing and product oriented development environment and collaborate with vendors and outside sources in order to see parts through to manufacture.

• Serve as the technical lead for optomechanical display subsystem design, development, and implementation for head worn devices, including waveguide, display engines, and Rx lenses.
• Lead development and architecture efforts for miniaturization of novel optomechanical subsystems, working with other system and cross-functional leads to arrive at reusable designs optimized for consumer usage.
• Work to drive design for manufacturability (DFM) and design for assembly (DFA) efforts from early NTI to prototype to mass production, working closely with internal and external partners and contract manufacturers.
• Own and develop comprehensive requirements documents and tolerance stackup analyses to ensure performance and reliability of optomechanical systems through the conditions expected by mass production consumer hardware.
• Establish mechanical and optical metrology strategies, using these strategies to devise reliable and robust fixtures, measurement capabilities, and validation approaches.

• Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering, Product Design, or related field, or equivalent practical experience.
• 8 years of experience designing mechanical components such as plastic or metal parts, mechanical assemblies, printed circuit boards, or flexes.
• Experience with optomechanical displays, design for manufacturability (DFM), design for assembly (DFA), or precision mechanical systems.
