1 Position offer: Opto-mechanical Engineer Candidate brief for the position of: Opto-mechanical Engineer CD6 at a glance The CD6 is a technological innovation center located at the Campus of the UPC in Terrassa (near Barcelona, Spain), which operates in the field of Optics and Photonics Engineering. The CD6 is established in 1997 with the aim of fostering the R+D activities in the field of Optical Engineering and its activity is aimed at creating value through innovation. Applied research developed by CD6 is defined in order the new knowledge generated, reaches the market as new products or new processes. Over 40 people with complementary expertise (Optics, Electronics, Mechanical and Software) work at CD6. This multidisciplinary combination is necessary to develop applications with a short time-to-market. The research results achieved at CD6 have led to the creation of several spin-off companies that manufacture and market news products in different sectors. CD6 activity focuses on developing research and technology applications in the field of Optical Engineering. The center's researchers are working on four major areas of research: Optical design and simulation Metrology Visual Optics Color and Spectral Technologies Moreover, the knowledge gained in these lines, results in applications that are transferred to industry. This transfer occurs primarily within the following areas of innovation: Design of optical systems and sensors Instrumentation Development Optical metrology Biomedical Instrumentation Optical sensors for Smart Cities Energy-efficient illumination systems Optical techniques for nondestructive testing (NDT) Color and Spectral Technologies
