We are seeking a Laser Engineer to join our new Manufacturing organization.
At Atom Computing, we build quantum computers using arrays of optically trapped neutral atoms that will empower customers to achieve unprecedented computational breakthroughs. Join a world-class team of scientists, engineers, and business professionals to advance the state-of-the-art in quantum computing. We are seeking a Laser Engineer to join our new Manufacturing organization. Working alongside the engineers and physicists developing our hardware, you will help translate first-build experience into reliable, repeatable manufacturing processes. In this hands-on System Integration & Test (SI&T) role, you will integrate, stabilize, characterize, and troubleshoot the laser systems used in our neutral-atom quantum computers. Your responsibilities will include developing setup, test, and recovery procedures, completing laser system checkout prior to atom operations, and preparing the documentation required for handoff to Quantum Engineers (QEs). Responsibilities Install, align, and commission laser sources, amplifiers, and associated stabilization hardware from approved designs; verify optical, electrical, cooling, and control interfaces. Set up and tune frequency and intensity stabilization; verify lock acquisition, stability, and recovery using approved methods. Measure optical power, frequency stability, linewidth and noise where required, beam quality, and polarization; compare results with agreed laser acceptance and SI&T handoff criteria. Diagnose loss of lock, power drift, coupling degradation, thermal sensitivity, and interface faults; work with Laser Engineering, controls, and subsystem teams on approved corrections. Develop acceptance tests and controlled work instructions with Manufacturing Engineering for setup, alignment, calibration, and routine maintenance; use test automation where practical. Maintain serial-number, configuration, calibration, and test records; document non-conformance and corrective actions. Support system integration and laser hardware corrections during QE testing. QEs own verification with atoms and final technical acceptance. Follow laser-safety, interlock, and contamination-control practices; coordinate technical support and repairs with laser suppliers. Requirements BS in physics, optical engineering, electrical engineering, or a related discipline, or equivalent relevant experience; advanced degree preferred. 3+ years of hands-on experience commissioning, stabilizing, characterizing, and troubleshooting precision laser systems. Experience transferring precision optical or scientific hardware from development into repeat builds preferred. Requirements Practical experience with laser frequency or intensity stabilization, feedback control, and fault diagnosis. Hands-on free-space alignment, polarization control, fiber coupling, and handling of precision optical components. Proficiency with laser diagnostics such as wavemeters, photodiodes, optical power meters, oscilloscopes, and optical or RF spectrum analyzers. Ability to interpret optical layouts, electrical schematics, control interfaces, and test data; careful documentation and clear communication with engineers, physicists, and technicians. Experience with diode or fiber lasers, optical amplifiers, nonlinear frequency conversion, or atomic, molecular, and optical (AMO) or neutral-atom hardware preferred. Python or equivalent tools for instrument control and data analysis preferred.
