OPTICAL ASSEMBLY TECHNICIAN


SUMMARY:

We are seeking an Optical Technician to support hands-on production and assembly of fiber-optic components in a bench and lab-based manufacturing environment.

  • Work from schematics, drawings, and written work instructions to complete assemblies accurately.
  • Perform testing of optical assemblies using optical sources and detectors.
  • Maintain accurate documentation of process data and build records using basic computer systems.
  • Follow established procedures while maintaining a high level of precision and attention to detail.
  • Collaborate with team members and mentors in a structured training and production environment.


QUALIFICATIONS:

  • Hands-on experience with precision or bench-level assembly in a manufacturing, lab, or cleanroom environment.
  • Experience with fusion splicing, fiber preparation or polishing (preferred)
  • Exposure to optical systems, laser systems, interferometry, or precision electronics (preferred)
  • Strong manual dexterity and fine motor skills suitable for working with small, delicate components.
  • Ability to read and interpret schematics, drawings, or technical work instructions.
  • Understanding of basic measurement principles, tolerances, and unit conversions (µm, mm, cm, in).
  • Comfortable using a computer for basic documentation and data entry.
  • Demonstrated patience, focus, adaptability, and attention to detail.
  • Strong teamwork and communication skills.
