An acousto-optics bonder is a specialized technician who combines the skills of an acousto-optics with the precision of a bonder to assemble or integrate acousto-optic components into optical systems. This role is common in companies that manufacture specialized optical devices.
Responsibilities:
Perform precision bonding (surface preparation → adhesive application → alignment → pressure → bond thickness → curing → inspection/testing) of acousto-optic components including crystals, transducers, and optical elements
Operate and maintain bonding equipment and related tooling used in acousto-optic device assembly
Inspect finished assemblies using microscopes and optical measurement tools to ensure quality standards
Follow detailed work instructions and engineering specifications for bonding processes
Troubleshoot bonding defects and implement corrective actions to maintain yield and quality
Document production activities, process parameters, and inspection results accurately
Collaborate with engineering and quality teams to support process improvements and new product development
Requirements:
Hand skills manipulating small objects and performing precise tasks.
Steady hands and exceptional attention to detail for micro-scale assembly work
Experience in precision bonding, optical assembly, or a related electro-optic/photonic manufacturing role
Familiarity with acousto-optic, piezoelectric, or crystal-based components is a strong plus
Ability to read and follow technical drawings, schematics, and process documentation is a plus
Experience using microscopes, calipers, and other precision measurement instruments
Strong understanding of cleanroom practices and ESD-safe handling procedures
High school diploma or equivalent required; technical trade certification or associate's degree preferred
