Open Positions

Physical Sciences Inc., located in Pleasanton, CA, is seeking an optical engineer to work in an environment which includes both volume production of specialty optical components and R&D. The individual will perform measurements on specialty optical components using tunable diode lasers, micro-positioning equipment, infrared detectors, and optical inspection equipment, assist in the management of production programs, and assist PhD scientists in the performance of government-funded programs to develop custom optical systems.

PSI's Advanced Structural Composites Group, located in Andover and Haverhill, MA, is seeking to advance a breakthrough technology in high temperature structural composites from advanced development to production. These composites have gained widespread acceptance in the aerospace community for hypersonic leading edge and propulsion system components. The position will focus on the development of controlled production methods and the development of an aerospace-qualified production capability for this materials system.

Physical Sciences Inc., located just north of Boston in Andover, is looking for a scientific programmer with a strong background in physics or one of the physical sciences. Hands-on experience in the implementation of algorithms, real-time operating systems, and the control of optically-based sensor systems is highly desirable. A Master’s degree with two years’ experience or a bachelor’s degree with 4 years’ experience are considered ideal. Practical experience that was part of the degree process such as senior or thesis project is acceptable.

Q-Peak Inc., located in Bedford, MA, has opportunities for hands on laser engineers & technicians. Experience with build and test of either solid state or fiber lasers is needed in the laboratory/manufacturing environment to help bring contract development of new designs to fruition. Q-Peak’s involvement in design and development of new diode-pumped solid state (bulk and fiber) lasers, laser systems and associated nonlinear optics (SHG, OPOs, OPAs) requires direct experience in hardware design, fabrication, alignment, and test.
