Photonics Design Engineer

What you need

BS, MS or PhD in physics, electrical engineering, optics, or a related field; or equivalent practical experience.
Strong proficiency in industry-standard electromagnetic simulation methods (FDTD/ EME) and softwares (e.g., Ansys Lumerical, Tidy3D).
Experience designing devices on silicon nitride and/or silicon photonics platforms, such as grating couplers, edge couplers, splitters, and waveguide transitions.
Solid understanding of photonic layout concepts, Design Rule Checking (DRC), and familiarity with standard layout tools (e.g., KLayout, Luceda, Cadence).
Experience developing or extending a PDK, including PCells, component libraries, design rules, or compact models.

Experience taping out photonic designs through a foundry or MPW program (e.g., imec, AIM Photonics, Ligentec).
Experience designing SNSPDs or other waveguide-integrated detectors, or active devices such as phase shifters and modulators.
