About the role
Photon Queue Inc. in Albuquerque, NM, is seeking a Senior Optomechanical Engineer to own the precision optical hardware program for its New Mexico branch.
This role is hands-on, end-to-end, sourcing, building, characterizing, and optimizing optical and mechanical subassemblies. You will coordinate with Chicago manufacturing, develop vendors and tooling, and establish repeatable processes that enable scalable production while advancing metrology, assembly, and thermal stability.
Before you apply
Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.
Your profile is current
It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.
Two examples you can talk through
Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.
A number in mind
What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.
Your notice period
Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.
Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
