Job Description

Zemax Expert - Opto-mechanical Design

Newton Colmore is seeking an experienced Opto-mechanical Engineer to join our client in rural Cambridgeshire

In this new role you will be at the heart of complex, multidisciplinary projects, designing and developing optical systems from concept and simulation through to prototyping, tolerancing, and design for manufacture.
