Drive Innovation in Integrated Photonics
About the Role
We are seeking a talented individual to join our interdisciplinary team and contribute to the design, simulation, and characterization of photonic components and systems. As a key member of this dynamic team, you will play a crucial role in unlocking the immense business potential of photonic integrated circuits (PICs).
Key Responsibilities
* Design and simulate integrated photonic components such as waveguides, modulators, detectors, and passive/active optical elements.
* Develop and optimize photonic integrated circuits using commercial software tools such as Ansys Lumerical and Synopsys.
* Collaborate with process engineers to define fabrication requirements for photonic devices and ensure seamless integration into production workflows.
You will work closely with optical packaging teams to ensure proper alignment and performance of optical components. Additionally, you will analyze experimental data and collaborate on the characterization and testing of fabricated devices. Staying updated on the latest advancements in photonic technologies, simulation, materials, and fabrication techniques is also essential.
Requirements
* A master's degree in Electrical Engineering, Physics, Optical Engineering, Photonics, or a related field.
* 3+ years industrial experience in integrated photonics design with a particular emphasis on Photonic Integrated Circuits (PICs) and optical systems.
* Hands-on experience with photonic design software such as Ansys Lumerical or Synopsys is essential.
A deep understanding of photonic principles, including waveguides, interferometers, modulators, and detectors, is required. Knowledge of semiconductor fabrication processes and materials, including silicon photonics, III-V semiconductors, or other photonic platforms, is also highly valued. Excellent communication skills and a collaborative mindset are essential for success in this role.
