Original job description

English section of this bilingual listing.

About Us

At Mechasys , our XR Projector projects digital construction plans at 1:1 scale directly onto the job site, with millimetre precision and no guesswork. We merge optics, software, and embedded systems to help builders work faster and smarter. Based in Montreal, we're scaling fast and looking for the right people to help us get there.

The Role

We are seeking a hands-on Optical Systems Engineer - LiDAR and Laser Ranging to own the distance measurement subsystem at the heart of the XR Projector. The instrument currently relies on a commercial phase-shift rangefinder module; you will design the next generation optical ranging system that replaces it, from link budget and bench prototype through to a manufacturable, field-calibrated product. You will be the technical owner of ranging performance: range, precision, measurement rate, and how all three hold up in real site conditions. You will also contribute to improving the laser projection system.

Key Responsibilities

Ranging System Design

Own the ranging architecture: modulation scheme, wavelength, receiver topology, and optical layout.
Build and defend optical link budgets, and set specifications that are physically achievable.
Design the receive path: collection optics, filtering, and detector selection (APD, SiPM, PIN), and specify the analog front end with our electronics team.
Own laser safety for the ranging path under IEC 60825-1 and ANSI Z136.1, including interlock design.

Prototyping and Measurement

Stand up optical benches and run experiments with documented protocols and acceptance criteria.
Characterize the error terms that decide real accuracy: crosstalk, range walk, thermal drift, speckle.
Build measurement tooling and turn the data into usable noise models.

Integration and Productization

Work with firmware engineers on components such as signal processing, phase extraction, and the host interface.
Contribute to athermal mounting, boresight stability, and alignment tolerances.
Define per-unit factory calibration, and support manufacturing, field diagnostics, and compliance (IEC, CE, FCC).

Who You Are

5+ years developing LiDAR, laser rangefinding, or optical time-of-flight systems, or a closely related electro-optical instrument.
A degree in physics, electrical engineering, optical engineering, or engineering physics, or equivalent depth earned in industry.
You can build an optical link budget from first principles and explain, in photons, why a specification is or is not reachable.
Practical experience with photodetectors (APD, SiPM, PIN), their analog front ends, and both phase-shift and pulsed time-of-flight ranging.
At home on an optical bench and with lab instrumentation; you write Python to get answers from data.
You have designed to laser safety classification , not just read about it, and you document work so others can repeat it.

Nice to Have

Galvanometer or MEMS beam scanning, and the calibration that comes with it.
FPGA-based signal processing (Zynq, Vivado, HDL), or close collaboration with FPGA teams.
Surveying, metrology, or total stations, or another domain where millimetres are the unit of argument.
Optical design tools (Zemax, OpticStudio, Code V), design for manufacturability, and volume production.
Bilingual in French and English is a plus.

Why You'll Love It Here

Ownership: A subsystem that is yours end to end, from physics to production
Salary: Commensurate with experience
Equity: Stock options, own a piece of what you help build
Impact: Build tools that are transforming job sites worldwide
Flexibility: Flexible hours and remote-friendly environment
Time Off: 3 weeks vacation plus unlimited personal and sick days
Benefits: Full health, dental, vision, and professional development coverage

À propos de nous

Chez Mechasys, notre projecteur XR projette des plans de construction numériques à l'échelle 1:1 directement sur le chantier, avec une précision millimétrique et sans devinettes. Nous fusionnons l'optique, le logiciel et les systèmes embarqués pour aider les constructeurs à travailler plus vite et plus intelligemment. Basés à Montréal, nous connaissons une croissance rapide et recherchons les bonnes personnes pour nous aider à y parvenir.

Le rôle

Nous recherchons un ingénieur en systèmes optiques - LiDAR et télémétrie laser terrain pour prendre en charge le sous-système de mesure de distance au cœur du projecteur XR. L'instrument s'appuie actuellement sur un module télémétrique commercial à décalage de phase ; vous concevrez le système de télémétrie optique de prochaine génération qui le remplacera, depuis le bilan de liaison et le prototype sur banc d'essai jusqu'à un produit manufacturable et étalonné sur le terrain. Vous serez le responsable technique des performances de télémétrie : portée, précision, fréquence de mesure, et la façon dont ces trois éléments se comportent dans des conditions réelles de chantier. Vous contribuerez également à l'amélioration du système de projection laser.

Responsabilités clés

Conception du système de télémétrie

Prendre en charge l'architecture de télémétrie : schéma de modulation, longueur d'onde, topologie du récepteur et disposition optique.
Établir et défendre les bilans de liaison optique, et définir des spécifications physiquement réalisables.
Concevoir la voie de réception : optique de collecte, filtrage et sélection des détecteurs (APD, SiPM, PIN), et spécifier l'étage d'entrée analogique avec notre équipe électronique.
Assurer la sécurité laser pour la voie de télémétrie selon les normes IEC 60825-1 et ANSI Z136.1, y compris la conception des verrouillages de sécurité.

Prototypage et mesure

Mettre en place des bancs optiques et exécuter des expériences avec des protocoles documentés et des critères d'acceptation.
Caractériser les termes d'erreur qui déterminent la précision réelle : diaphonie, dérive en portée (range walk), dérive thermique, tavelure (speckle).
Concevoir des outils de mesure et transformer les données en modèles de bruit exploitables.

Intégration et industrialisation

Travailler avec les ingénieurs en micrologiciel sur des composants tels que le traitement du signal, l'extraction de phase et l'interface hôte.
Contribuer au montage athermal, à la stabilité d'alignement (boresight) et aux tolérances d'alignement.
Définir l'étalonnage en usine par unité, et soutenir la fabrication, le diagnostic sur le terrain et la conformité (IEC, CE, FCC).

Profil recherché

5 ans et plus d'expérience dans le développement de systèmes LiDAR, de télémétrie laser ou de temps de vol optique, ou d'un instrument électro-optique très similaire.
Diplôme en physique, génie électrique, génie optique ou génie physique, ou une expertise équivalente acquise dans l'industrie.
Capacité à concevoir un bilan de liaison optique à partir des principes fondamentaux et à expliquer, en photons, pourquoi une spécification est accessible ou non.
Expérience pratique avec les photodétecteurs (APD, SiPM, PIN), leurs étages d'entrée analogiques, ainsi que la télémétrie par décalage de phase et par temps de vol pulsé.
À l'aise sur un banc optique et avec l'instrumentation de laboratoire ; vous utilisez Python pour extraire des réponses à partir des données.
Expérience dans la conception selon les classifications de sécurité laser, et non simplement de la théorie, avec une rigueur de documentation permettant à d'autres de reproduire le travail.

Atouts

Balayage de faisceau par galvanomètre ou MEMS, et l'étalonnage qui l'accompagne.
Traitement du signal basé sur FPGA (Zynq, Vivado, HDL), ou collaboration étroite avec des équipes FPGA.
Arpentage, métrologie ou stations totales, ou un autre domaine où le millimètre est l'unité de mesure fondamentale.
Outils de conception optique (Zemax, OpticStudio, Code V), conception pour la manufacturabilité et production en volume. Le bilinguisme français et anglais est un plus.

Pourquoi vous aimerez travailler ici

Autonomie : Un sous-système qui vous appartient de bout en bout, de la physique à la production
Salaire : Proportionnel à l'expérience
Équité : Options d'achat d'actions, possédez une part de ce que vous aidez à bâtir
Impact : Créez des outils qui transforment les chantiers de construction à travers le monde
Flexibilité : Horaires flexibles et environnement adapté au travail à distance
Congés : 3 semaines de vacances plus journées personnelles et de maladie illimitées
Avantages sociaux : Couverture complète pour la santé, les soins dentaires, la vue et le développement professionnel
