Role :
You will own opto-mechanical design, analysis, integration, and qualification of a Multispectral
Imager (MSI) payload for space applications. This is a hands-on role spanning precision optomechanics, structural/thermal/dynamics analysis, build & alignment, environmental
testing (vibe/TVAC), and documentation—working closely with optics, detector/ROIC,
electronics, and systems engineering.

Responsibilities
• Design and analyze opto-mechanical assemblies for MSI payload subsystems
(lens/telescope, focal plane module, baffles, mounts, mechanisms if any).
• Manage optical-mechanical interfaces: alignment features, shimming strategy, tolerance
stack-ups, thermal focus stability, stray light baffle interfaces.
• Perform or lead simulations for static strength, thermal gradients, thermo-elastic
deformation, and focus/boresight stability.
• Assess thermal paths for vacuum conduction cooling; support heater/thermistor
placement and thermal straps.
• Execute modal, sine, and random vibration analysis; define and verify stiffness targets
and resonance margins.




• Own design for launch load survivability and optical alignment retention.
• Hands-on build of prototypes and engineering models; develop alignment and
integration procedures.
• Plan and execute optical-mechanical verification tests; support metrology,
collimator/goniometer/interferometer-based checks as needed.
• Lead mechanical aspects of vibration, shock (if applicable), and thermovac campaigns:
test readiness, fixtures, instrumentation, correlation vs models, NCR/RCA closure.
• Design test fixtures and support tooling (including whiffletree-style supports for large
optics where relevant), MGSE concepts, and alignment jigs.
• Produce and maintain drawings, GD&T;, BOMs, assembly instructions, tolerance reports,
test reports, and change logs.
Must-have Qualifications
• B.E./B.Tech/M.E. in Mechanical Engineering (or equivalent).
• 2–4+ years hands-on opto-mechanical experience in precision mechanisms or EO/IR
