Internship - Optics Engineering

• Leads a complex technical design or has ownership of a module that requires contribution from several engineers. Starts thinking about modules / influences other parts of modules; oversees several components that are linked (module).

• Leading on mono-disciplinary designs / projects, taking industrialization into account.
• Works with engineers of teams of adjacent /collaborating FCs/ICs, interfaces within team of a train or multiple products.
• Interfaces with suppliers or customers as member of a larger team.
• Looks at problems from multiple known angles and proposes different 'out of the box' solutions to choose from, in an environment with technical uncertainty. Balances between quality and timely delivery.
• Acts autonomously in own area of expertise, working independently on complex design engineering tasks, defines design solution. Works towards given results, with freedom to decide how to realize these.
• Independently applies and adheres to quality standards (e.g. D&E handbook).
• Focuses on the behavior and properties of light, including its interactions with matter and the construction of instruments that use or detect it.

This internship will be on-site at the San Diego campus for 12 weeks in summer 2025. Applicants mut be enrolled in a program through at least fall 2025.

Carry out a range of research activities either to support others or to fulfill the requirements of the role.
