Optical Engineer

The optics group at Nova is looking for an Optical Engineer to be responsible for diverse development activities related to high-end, multidisciplinary optical metrology tools.

• Nova provides insights into process control in the world’s most technologically advanced industry. We employ physics, math, algorithms, software, and hardware expertise to redefine the limits of possible semiconductors manufacturing.
• We invite you to join our dreamers and winners! Brilliant high-aimers who see the impossible as the starting point to exciting challenges and work together in multidisciplinary global teams to find answers.
• We dive deep into the nanometric and atomic levels to extract unique insights and provide our customers and partners with crucial decision-making data. Each and every one of us helps redefine what people can achieve through technology.

We do things differently. What about you?

You’ll be joining the Optics team:

• The optics team is responsible for the whole optical path of the Nova tools starting from the light sources, through core optical components, and to the sensors
• The optical path of Nova tools consists of diverse high-end elements from different optics branches providing state-of-the-art performance at the system level.
• Team members are involved in diverse development phases, from initial research and characterization to concept design and feasibility study to the final design and qualification.
• All team members operate in a multi-tasking environment, leading various research, design, and engineering activities in parallel.

What will you do as an Optical Engineer?

• Apply physical models, simulations, and analyses of tool-related physical effects.
• Conduct Lab tests for feasibility studies, root cause analysis, and design qualifications.
• Full responsibility for the light sources, optic fibers, optical modules, and sensors
• Managing and controlling the vendors

Requirements
