Mechanical Project Engineer at IMEG leading design efforts for HVAC, plumbing, and fire protection systems. Collaborating with cross - functional teams and ensuring effective project delivery in building design consulting.
About the role
- Engineer Optics developing illumination optics for DLP projectors at Barco. Collaborating with international teams on innovative optical engineering solutions.
Responsibilities
- As an Engineer Optics – Illumination Systems, you will be responsible for the design, simulation, and validation of illumination optics for 1-DLP projector platforms.
- You will define optical architectures from light source to DMD, specify projection lens requirements, and ensure colour and brightness performance meet system targets.
- The role includes close collaboration with key optical suppliers and hands-on work with colour and optical measurement equipment.
- Design and optimize illumination systems for 1-DLP projectors.
- Develop optical models using Zemax OpticStudio, including: Light source coupling and illumination optics, Integrator rods, light tunnels, or homogenization optics, Relay optics up to the DMD.
- Define and review projection lens specifications in collaboration with system and lens suppliers.
- Perform optical performance trade-offs (brightness, uniformity, contrast, étendue).
- Apply ‘colour science principles’ to achieve target colour or brightness performance and stability.
- Measure and validate colour, luminance, and uniformity using: Spectrometers, Colorimeters.
- Analyze measurement results and correlate them with simulations.
- Develop analysis tools and perform data processing using Python or other scientific programming languages.
- Work closely with key optical suppliers, including: Requirement definition and technical reviews, Design follow-up and performance validation, Support prototype builds, optical alignment, and system-level testing in close cooperation with operations/production engineers.
Requirements
