  • Experience designing photonic integrated circuits

  • Hands-on experience with photonic foundries and fabrication processes

  • Experience working within a photonic design team

  • Strong understanding of optical device physics and waveguide design

  • Experience with tools such as Lumerical, IPKISS, GDSFactory, KLayout (or similar)

  • Experience with high-speed or RF photonics is a plus

Education:

  • At least a Bachelor’s degree in Physics, Electrical Engineering, or a related field
