Role Description
Perform the research, development and testing of lasers, laser systems, and fiber optic delivery devices for surgical applications. Provide knowledge of photonics and lasers, particularly high-power pulsed, Q-switched, and diode driven fiber optic lasers. Build bench-level prototypes and conduct experiments to lead understanding of system and single-use device design requirements. Work closely with other members of our small, interdisciplinary team developing innovative laser devices and related technologies in a focused, fast-paced and fun environment. Provide progress reports on program performance and ensure deadlines are met. This position will require you to translate raw ideas into high-level design concepts and prototypes.
Roles and Responsibilities
- Evaluate performance and maintain a high standard for performance within the Laser & Optics team.
- Assemble, align, test, and troubleshoot surgical lasers, laser delivery systems, and single-use devices.
- Build and align laser and fiber optic prototypes, taking them from bench-level to functional designs.
- Couple high-energy, free space lasers to photonic components and fiber optic devices.
- Conduct lab experiments, collect and analyze resulting data, document and present results.
- Work with manufacturers to define requirements for components and subsystems and realize prototypes.
- Derive product design requirements based on top-level requirements and user needs input.
- Medical device development activities such as prototyping and testing, pilot builds, V&V, risk assessment, and validation of ramp-up to production.
- Contribute to patent portfolio and strategy development.
