Optical ait Engineer H/F

Description

Les missions du poste About the Company Established in 2017, Infinite Orbits is a NewSpace company, based in Toulouse, pushing the boundaries of in-orbit services with cutting-edge spacecraft driven by its own Rendez-Vous solution, an advanced Autonomous Vision-Based Navigation Solution. IO has two generations of missions "Orbit Guard" provides Inspection and Space Situational Awareness services in GEO. Our first, OG-1 was launched on 1 May 2023, the second is launching in 2025 and the third third launching in 2026. "Endurance" is a docking service capable of extending the life of GEO telecom satellites, by taking over AOCS takeover for 5 years. Infinite Orbits is looking for an experienced Optical AIT Engineer to support the integration and validation of an optical payload. The role focuses on optical alignment, camera-level integration, and end-to-end optical performance verification at subsystem and satellite level. This position requires a strong combination of optical engineering expertise, hands-on integration experience, and strict adherence to cleanroom best practices. Key Responsibilities 1. Optical Integration & Alignment - Perform precision alignment of optical assemblies, including lens-to-detector alignment. - Define and execute alignment procedures (focus, tilt, centering, boresight). - Use optical metrology tools (collimators, interferometers, autocollimators, MTF benches). - Analyze optical defects (defocus, aberrations, misalignment). 2. Camera & Payload Integration - Supervise and support camera integration activities from an optical standpoint. - Interface with mechanical, thermal, and electronics teams to ensure system-level consistency. - Validate optical performance after integration (PSF, MTF, focus stability). - Contribute to integration flow definition and optimization. 3. Verification & Testing - Define and implement optical acceptance test procedures at: - Unit level (sensor, lens, camera). - Subsystem level. - Satellite level. - Perform o
