Optical Hardware Qualification Engineer

We are seeking an experienced Optical Hardware Qualification Engineer for optical interconnect system integration, validation, and qualification of next-generation optical and high-speed electrical interconnects for AI scale-out and scale-up platforms. This role combines hands-on optical transceiver qualification with broader system integration responsibilities spanning optics, SerDes, firmware, and switch platform. The ideal candidate brings deep expertise in 400G, 800G, and emerging 1.6T optical interconnects, 100G and 200G per-lane PAM4 technologies, and cross-functional system debug.

You will work closely with architecture, L1 hardware, optical, platform engineering, and external vendor teams to drive qualification readiness, and improve link performance to ensure system interoperability.
