Position Title: Laser (Coherent Beam Combining) Engineer, ( Position code: 2025001 )
Qualifications:
- Ph.D. in Lasers, Optics, Physics, Engineering, or a related field, with experience in high-energy laser system design and development
- Strong expertise in high energy laser coherent beam combining technologies
- Background and expertise with semiconductor laser sources and fiber laser amplifiers
- Proficiency with modeling software such as Finesse, Zemax, COMSOL, Lumerical, RSoft, Python, Mathematica, or ANSYS Lumerical for laser and cavity simulations.
- Experience developing electro-mechanical feedback systems is desirable
- Experience working in cross-disciplinary teams across multiple technical fields
Job Description:
We are seeking an experienced engineer to drive the development of advanced high energy laser systems using coherent beam combining techniques. The BLF laser-optical enhancement cavity platform utilizes a Fabry-Pérot cavity to stack and store a train of lower power pulses into kJ+ high-energy pulses. This system requires:
- Ultra-high reflectivity mirrors
- Pulsed, high power laser injection
- High finesse cavities up to 150m in length
- Precise resonance tuning between the input laser and the cavity
- Minimization of optical losses
The Laser Engineer will enhance BLF’s laser-OEC concept by:
- Developing CBC laser sources with increased input power
- Developing active optical, mechanical, and feedbacking elements to maintain resonance
- Work with laser and fiber amplifier vendors to develop and procure optimal sources
- Modeling optical performance of the laser-enhancement cavity using industry-standard software
- Assessing thermal effects at higher input powers
- Troubleshooting and optimizing system performance
Job Description:
The Laser Engineer will be expected to:
- Work on site primarily in Goleta (Santa Barbara), CA
- Occasionally travel to work with international and domestic development partners
- Work closely with BLF Founder, Shuji Nakamura
Join us in advancing fusion energy technology and pushing the boundaries of high-energy laser systems.
