The position drives the display or optical module process end to end, from proof-of-concept to volume manufacturing, managing complex technical challenges across disciplines, and aligning cross-functional teams with external manufacturing partners down to the finest detail.","responsibilities":"Lead the architecture, process development, and integration of advanced AR/VR optical modules and precision assembly sequences from initial concept through engineering validation builds.

Translate design requirement and features into detailed module EQ and process develop schedules, deliver process in predictable, timely manner.

Drive comprehensive Design for Manufacturability (DFM) roadmaps in partnership with Optical Design and Integration teams, influencing early architecture to maximize yield, quality, and production scalability.

Perform design and process FMEA and focus on high-risk items to plan the development work.

Direct deep-dive root-cause analyses on high-volume, complex, and sometimes conflicting technical data to resolve systemic process and yield detractors.

Serve as the technical lead, establishing structured, repeatable engineering frameworks to stabilize critical processes.

Champion fine-detail technical optimizations across materials, tolerances, and assembly steps, ensuring subtle engineering nuances deliver an exceptional final product performance.

Lead technical engagements with external manufacturing partners and component vendors, aligning requirements, resolving competing priorities, and driving execution against aggressive timelines.

Anticipate optics manufacturing and technology trends to formulate forward-looking process roadmaps and adapt implementation strategies as technological landscapes evolve.

Foster a collaborative environment through cross-functional mentorship and knowledge sharing on advanced process integration methodologies.

Domestic and international travel to vendor and manufacturing sites may be required.

Preferred Qualifications

Master's degree or PhD in an engineering discipline, Materials Science, Optics, or related field.

In-depth technical experience developing assembly, integration, and packaging processes specifically for AR/VR display systems, micro-displays, or high-precision optical sub-assemblies.

Demonstrated ability to synthesize high-volume, ambiguous, or contradictory technical data to solve persistent engineering challenges and create structured problem-solving frameworks.

Track record of consistently achieving aggressive milestones and delivering breakthrough technical results under challenging circumstances or shifting project conditions.

Passion for precision and deep-dive engineering, with demonstrated success rethinking or refining subtle component details that significantly improve overall module performance.

Proven capability to balance high-stakes stakeholder expectations, navigate competing technical priorities, and build alignment across diverse cross-functional teams and external vendors .

Minimum Qualifications

Bachelor's degree in Physics, Mechanical Engineering, Materials Science, Chemical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or equivalent job-related experience with minimum of 10 years of experience or Advanced degree

Experience in process development and integration for advanced optics/display modules, consumer electronics, or high-precision optical hardware.

Experience leading Design for Manufacturability (DFM) initiatives from early architecture and concept phases through engineering validation builds.

Demonstrated experience conducting root-cause failure analysis and defining corrective-action strategies for multi-variable manufacturing and assembly processes.
