Optomechanics Engineer – Pioneering Laser Communication Systems

If you’re an engineer who thrives at the intersection of optics and mechanics, this is the kind of opportunity that doesn’t come around often. A company at the forefront of laser communication technology is looking for an Optomechanics Engineer to help shape the future of ultra-fast, high-precision optical systems.

The Role

As an Optomechanics Engineer, you’ll play a key role in designing, developing, and refining opto-mechanical systems. Your work will directly impact the performance and manufacturability of high-speed laser communication devices. You’ll collaborate with hardware, software, and manufacturing teams, ensuring these systems meet the highest standards of precision and reliability.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Designing and optimizing opto-mechanical systems, with a focus on optical alignment, thermal management, and mechanical performance.

• Bringing Design for Manufacturing (DFM) principles into the development process to streamline production.

• Conducting engineering analysis to validate designs for durability, manufacturability, and cost-effectiveness.

• Supporting manufacturing teams with tooling and techniques for high-precision production.

• Managing supply chain relationships for mechanical components and ensuring seamless integration into production.

What You Bring

• A degree in Physics, Optics, Mechanical Engineering, or a related field, with at least two years of experience.

• Proficiency in CAD software like SolidWorks and analysis tools like COMSOL.

• Experience designing aerospace or space structures, plus an understanding of mass manufacturing and electronic component integration.

• Strong problem-solving skills-whether it’s optimizing optical alignment or refining manufacturing techniques.

• A hands-on approach, with the ability to document processes and develop standard operating procedures.

Bonus Points For

• Experience designing manufacturing test equipment and optical system calibration.

• Knowledge of geometric and modern optics.

• Familiarity with ERP/MRP systems like SAP or NetSuite.

• Mandarin language skills for working with regional suppliers.

Location & Relocation Support

This role is based in Singapore, a global hub for innovation and advanced manufacturing. Full relocation support is provided, ensuring a smooth transition for candidates moving from abroad.

Why This Role?

This isn’t just another engineering job. It’s a chance to work on technology that’s shaping the future of global connectivity-whether that’s bridging telecom gaps on Earth or enabling high-speed optical communication in space. If you’re excited by the idea of working with a team pushing the boundaries of laser communication, let’s talk.
