· Design layouts for high-speed optical transmitters and receivers on tools such as GDS Factory, Luceda IPKISS, and OptoCompiler.
· Perform system-level simulations, integrating both simulated and real test data, using tools such as OptSim and VPI.
· Oversee assembly, packaging, and integration of PICs with electronic components on PCBs.
· Define and implement standardized test plans for photonic components and PICs.
· Conduct comprehensive testing and validation of high-speed PICs and optoelectronic assemblies, including transmitters and receivers.
· Define and execute reliability studies and failure analysis for photonic components, PICs and optoelectronic assemblies.
Required Qualifications and Skills:
· M.S. or Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering, Physics, or related field.
· Experience with design, test, and integration of photonic components including lasers, MZMs, photodiodes, and passive components.
· Hands‑on experience developing and executing test plans for PICs.
· Proficiency in the simulation and design tools listed under Key Responsibilities.
· Strong teamwork, collaboration, and communication skills.
Preferred Qualifications and Skills:
· Experience delivering photonic components and PICs for telecom or datacom products.
· High-speed modulator and detector design and test experience.
· Experience with PIC product packaging, testing, and qualification.
· Yield, reliability and failure analysis experience.
