The present disclosure relates to methods of assembling a lensed optical fiber array by printing in situ a lens onto each optical fiber of an optical fiber array with an ultrafast laser system where the lens can be shaped to the optical fiber end face to reduce pitch mismatch. In some embodiments, optical fiber(s) of the optical fiber array can be cleaved, and the lens can be shaped to the optical fiber end face to reduce pitch mismatch.
