Job Description

We are currently looking for a Silicon Photonics Engineer to join the photonics team at Analog Photonics. The role entails working collaboratively and cross-functionally with a multi-disciplinary team of CMOS, Electronics, and Systems engineers. Tasks will include design, layout and verification of a variety of gain elements, electro-optic phase shifters/modulators, thermo-optic phase shifters/switches and passive components such as splitters, couplers and high-Q filters/gratings. The silicon photonics components and subsystems will then be co-integrated in complex systems. The candidate will work with a variety of teams to support the calibration, operation, and qualification of these chip-scale systems. This is a great opportunity for anyone with the requisite background who wants to gain experience in product design, prototyping, and manufacturing.



Key Responsibilities

  • Design, Model, Layout and Verification of III-V/Silicon Photonics devices
  • Work with wafer-scale/die-scale tester to develop seamless data acquisition
  • Communicate with foundries to develop manufacturable photonic devices
  • Interface with packaging service suppliers and communicating technical drawings.
  • Generate reports for internal deliverables and external customer interaction
  • Execute current and new projects from start to finish
  • Contribute technically to new funding opportunities



Required Qualifications

  • M.S. (Ph.D. preferred) in electrical engineering, applied physics, or related field
  • 5 years of integrated photonics component or system design and test
  • Electromagnetic simulations in FDTD, Modesolvers, etc. (e.g. Lumerical/Synopsys)
  • Mask layout in Cadence Virtuoso
  • Taping out photonic devices in a foundry setting (full reticle or MPW) with complex layout and DRC
  • Photonic component testing experience with standard positioners, tunable lasers
  • Proficient in scientific analysis software (MATLAB, Python)



Ideal Qualifications

  • High-speed RF/electro-optic photonic design and test
  • TCAD simulation (i.e. Synopsys Sentaurus)
  • Familiarity with III-V Design
  • Die-Scale/Wafer-Scale Prober or Photonics Lab equipment automation and remote control
  • Chip-scale Optoelectronics Packaging
  • Communication with Contract Manufacturing
