Sr. Technical Recruiter with The Photonics Group
Key Responsibilities:
- Design, model, and optimize silicon photonic devices, including grating couplers, waveguides, SOAs, and photodetectors, for high-speed AI computing applications.
- Collaborate with external foundries to develop manufacturable designs using process design kits (PDKs) and ensure successful tape-out of silicon photonic components.
- Perform design-for-manufacturing (DFM) and design-for-test (DFT) evaluations to ensure scalability and robust production.
- Conduct and interpret optical simulations using industry-standard tools (eg, Lumerical, Ansys, COMSOL, or equivalent).
- Work with optical fiber assemblies and ensure seamless integration with high-speed photonic systems.
- Perform experimental validation and characterization of silicon photonic devices in the lab.
- Lead design reviews and contribute to the development of optical test plans, specifications, and manufacturing guidelines.
- Support the development of intellectual property (IP) and contribute to patent filings related to novel silicon photonic designs.
- Mentor junior engineers and contribute to the continuous improvement of silicon photonics design methodologies.
Qualifications:
- PhD in Photonics, Physics, Electrical Engineering, or a related discipline.
- Minimum of 10 years of industry experience in silicon photonics design, development.
- Demonstrated expertise in designing and optimizing photonic integrated circuits, including grating couplers, waveguides, SOAs, and photodetectors.
- Proven track record of taking silicon photonic devices from concept through to commercial production using leading foundries.
- Hands-on experience working with PDKs, performing DFM/DFT, and managing tape-outs.
- Experience characterizing and validating silicon photonic devices in a laboratory environment.
- Familiarity with optical fiber coupling and high-speed photonics applications.
