Education Recommendations
Current M.S., or Ph.D. student in electrical engineering, physics, applied physics, or other similar quantitative fields.

The candidate will contribute to the development process for complex photonic devices and systems-on-chip, namely via testing and analysis of photonic components and circuits at the wafer level and module level. As a member of our silicon photonics design team, you'll be working alongside other experienced silicon photonics designers with strong records of delivering innovative photonic device designs and large-scale silicon photonics circuits.



  • Support the characterization of active and passive photonic devices and/or complex photonic integrated circuits and systems.
  • Contribute to test development and lead the test data analysis of your devices to correlate design with measurements.
  • Develop new test approaches and innovate on both wafter-level test and system-level test optimization and automation.
  • Collaborate with all other functional teams in the organization to characterize and develop co-designed and co-optimized photonics systems.



You have:



  • Experience with characterizing silicon photonic or other integrated optical/optoelectronic devices or circuits.
  • Lab experience in optical engineering tests, fiber-waveguide coupling, and design verification testing.
  • Solid numerical and physics-related programming skills (in Python or C/C++).
  • Proficiency with optics design tools, such as Lumerical.


It would be nice if you had:



  • Experience in photonic integrated circuit design, modeling, and layout.
  • Strong understanding of general concepts in fiber optics and integrated optics, namely coherent or data communication systems.
  • Experience with high-frequency/RF photonics design and modeling experience.
  • Experience testing with high-speed RF characterization equipment such as VNAs, spectrum analyzers, AWGs, etc.
