The intern will support scientists, concept engineers, systems engineers, and optical engineers in advanced technology and concept development projects. The intern will conceive, design, prototype, and test novel ophthalmic diagnostics technologies.
Work and interact with Engineers and Scientists in Advanced Development and Concept Development
Design lab prototypes of opto-mechanical, opto-electrical, and electro-mechanical systems •
Assemble, build, and trouble shoot prototype hardware and software
Characterize, optimize, and document prototype performance
Collect proof-of-concept data using controlled laboratory experiments and compare with predicted results
Participate in weekly team meetings discussing on-going progress •
Present collection of total work to a larger group of cross-company individuals
The intern will familiarize themselves with our products, specifically OCT, Fundus Imaging, and Perimetry products.
The intern will learn what the diagnostic goal is. Shadow clinical personnel and observe how products are used.
Learn what diagnostic value they provide and what the workflow is.
Clinical use of Ophthalmic Diagnostic Devices
Systems Design of Ophthalmic Diagnostic Devices
Self-guided learning
Instruction by Systems Engineers • Hands-on work on systems in the lab.
