Photonics Engineer
Job Location
Farringdon, United Kingdom
Job Description
Senior Silicon Photonics Engineer – Optical Networking – London – LM1202
Salary / benefits: Competitive Salary + Package
Job Term: Permanent, Full Time, Onsite
Job Outline:
An exciting opportunity now exists for a Senior Silicon Photonics Engineer, to be based with my client in London.
As a Senior Silicon Photonic Engineer, you will apply your knowledge and experience to design, implement and test PICs for optical communication networks.
You will Design, develop, and test iterative product prototypes to get a product manufactured.
You will have the opportunity to innovate at both component and system level. This role will include hands-on design, simulation, testing, and closely interfacing with fabrication and packaging teams and vendors.
Responsibilities:
* Design and simulate photonic components and system-level functionality and performance
* Prototype novel photonic components and architectures
* Work closely with the fabrication team and external manufacturing partners for component design, process integration, and performance monitoring.
* Develop component and system-level optical testing plans and optoelectronic testing setups. Perform hands-on photonic component and optical system-level testing. Work with the product team to transition/scale testing for performance evaluation.
* Contribute to the expansion of our IP portfolio through patent filing
Skills & Experience:
* 5 years of industrial experience in design and optimization of silicon/III-V photonic devices and photonic integrated circuits
* Strong tape out experience with photonics foundries
* Strong experience in photonic integrated circuits design CAD tools
* Strong understanding of planar waveguide optics, both passive components such as waveguides, multiplexers/demultiplexers, tapers, couplers and active such as detectors, modulators, SOAs and lasers
* Strong experience on RF/SI simulation and optimization, from components PCB/TIA/driver/optical components and systems
* Good understanding of CMOS manufacturing process steps and constraints on the design of photonic devices
* Proficient with mainstream photonic components and systems simulation and layout packages such as Lumerical, Synopsis RSoft, IPKISS
* Proficient with Python and scripting languages.
* Proficient with complex optoelectronic lab testing techniques and equipment, necessary to validate designs, including high-speed detectors, oscilloscopes, spectrum analyzers, precision positioning setups
* Collaborative in a multi disciplinary startup environment, ability to work both with local and remote team members as well as with our manufacturing partners
* Capable of coaching and mentoring new or junior engineers;
* Independent, analytical thinker, comfortable in a fast-paced dynamic frontier technology environment,
* Ph.D. with research in silicon photonics or BEng/MSc on relevant subjects
Additional Information:
Candidates MUST be eligible to work and live in the UK. Copies of Visa and Passport will be requested.
