Job Title: Product Engineering Manager – Optoelectronics

Type: Direct Hire

Compensation: $140k-$179k

Contractor Work Model: Onsite

System One is seeking a Product Engineering Manager to join our client’s Optoelectronics team. This role will oversee and mentor a team of engineers supporting the design, development, and sustainment of optical transceivers. This position works cross-functionally with new product development leaders and engineering discipline experts to ensure products are production-ready and supported with complete documentation. This individual will also help define best practices and support continuous improvement initiatives for released products.

Essential Functions / Responsibilities:

+ Manage and mentor a team of product engineers focused on designing and refining optoelectronic assemblies, such as optical transceivers.

+ Contribute to product development through Design For Manufacturing and Design For Test.

+ Join product development at the Alpha to Beta transition to ensure design is well-documented and has sufficient margin for performance validation, reliability qualification, production ramp, and manufacturing yield.

+ Contribute to optimization of assembly designs for efficiency, reliability, and manufacturability, incorporating advanced materials and photonic technologies.

+ Implement control plans and manufacturing tests to ensure production satisfies market needs.

+ Partner with production and supply chain teams to transition designs into scalable manufacturing processes, ensuring compliance with industry standards (e.g., IEC, RoHS).

+ Own design integrity for product after transition from Beta to production. Maintain the set of product requirements and design artifacts and coordinate engineering change management post product release.

+ Troubleshoot and resolve technical challenges related to optoelectronic performance.

+ Track engineering orders through product development lifecycle to ensure delivery of new optoelectronic products on schedule and within cost targets.

+ Stay informed on advancements in optoelectronics (e.g., laser technologies, fiber optics) to guide innovation and maintain competitive product offerings.

Required Experience:

+ Bachelor’s Degree in Electrical Engineering, Optics, Physics, Materials Science, Semiconductor Materials Science, Mechanical Engineering, Chemical Engineering, or a related field. (Master’s Degree preferred.)

+ 10+ years of experience in product engineering, with several years in a managerial role focused on optoelectronic systems or assemblies.

+ Deep technical expertise in optoelectronic design, including optical components, semiconductor devices, and assembly processes.

+ Experience leading teams in the development of optoelectronic products, from prototyping to high-volume production.

+ Expertise in product lifecycle management processes and tools, including requirements definition and management.

+ Proficiency with engineering tools like CAD (e.g., SolidWorks, AutoCAD), optical simulation software (e.g., Zemax), and project management platforms.

+ Knowledge of manufacturing techniques for optoelectronics, such as precision assembly, cleanroom protocols, and quality assurance standards.

+ Strong leadership and communication skills, with the ability to solve complex technical problems and unite cross-functional teams.

+ (Optional: Familiarity with specific optoelectronic applications, e.g., telecommunications, medical devices, or aerospace, if applicable.)
