Optics & Photonics Engineer

About the Role
At Pentamaster Corporation Berhad, we are looking for a passionate Optics & Photonics Engineer to design and develop cutting-edge optical solutions for advanced ATE (Automated Test Equipment) systems.
In this role, you will work on exciting technologies such as optical emitters, sensors, silicon photonics, co-packaged optics, and module burn-in systems, contributing directly to next-generation innovations in the photonics and semiconductor industries.

What You’ll Do

  • Design and develop optical and photonics modules based on customer requirements
    and test specifications
  • Create and optimize optical lens systems for beam focusing, shaping, and coupling
    performance
  • Collaborate closely with customers, cross-functional teams, and suppliers to ensure
    successful and timely project delivery
  • Analyze and optimize test systems to improve manufacturing yield and product
    performance
  • Troubleshoot and debug ATE system failures, perform root cause analysis, and
    implement corrective actions
  • Conduct research, prototyping, and proof-of-concept development to drive
    innovation and technical solutions
  • Lead or contribute to the full project lifecycle: planning, design, development,
    validation, and continuous improvement

Qualifications

  • Bachelor’s, Master’s, or PhD in Optics & Photonics or a related field
  • 3–5 years of experience in optical design or a related field (fresh graduates with strong
    fundamentals are encouraged to apply)
  • Hands-on experience with optical design & simulation tools (e.g., Zemax or
    equivalent)
  • Familiarity with optical components and measurement instruments (light sources,
    detectors, lenses, optical fibers)
