Spring 2026 Zemax Optics Intern (16650)
Responsibilities
- Create and test numerical models to both improve existing software functionality and add new software capabilities.
- Develop and apply machine learning models to analyze and predict optical phenomena based on datasets from simulations.
- Collaborate with team members to integrate machine learning techniques with traditional computational physics methods (e.g., Monte Carlo simulations, geometric ray tracing etc.).
- Analyze software functionality using Zemax OpticStudio Application Programming Interface (ZOS-API) using C++/C#, Python, or MATLAB.
- Identify improvements to the functionality and performance of Zemax OpticStudio through active use of the software application.
- Works under the general supervision of a development lead or manager.
