Optical Engineer - Dow Corning

I am a recruiter at Dow Corning Corporation in Midland, MI. I am currently doing a search for an Optical Engineer, but I am having trouble finding qualified candidates for this position. Since you are an expert in this field, I was hoping you could give me some references or some ideas on where to find quality candidates for this role.

The position is in our Business and Technology Incubator group. They are seeking an optical engineer to lead proof-of-concept prototyping and characterization of LED-based lighting using next generation Si-based optical materials. The successful candidate will deliver full device understanding and prototyping capability from LED chip to luminaire, linking system needs to material requirements. Core responsibilities include selecting/producing optical designs, process development, prototype assembly and optical and electrical characterization. In addition, the candidate will participate in external conversations aimed at developing collaborative solutions using the technologies developed. The candidate in this role will work with a diverse team of scientists, engineers, industrial designers, strategic marketing and business development professionals.

We are looking for someone with a Bachelor of Science with three years minimum experience in optics, or a Masters in EE, ME or Physics with a concentration in optics or illumination engineering is required. If you have any suggestions for my search or know of anyone in the industry that would fit this description, please let me know. Your help is greatly appreciated!
