Basic qualifications and experience:

You must possess the below minimum qualifications to be initially considered for this position. Preferred qualifications are in addition to the minimum requirements and are considered a plus factor in identifying top candidates.

• MS or Ph.D. degree in Electrical Engineering, Physics, or related field.
• Deep understanding of the operational principles of integrated PDs and EOMs and the physics governing these devices.
• Deep understanding of optical alignment of photonic devices, including developing or expanding upon alignment routines with different physical hardware mechanisms.
• Hands-on lab experience working with general lab equipment such as oscilloscopes, SMUs, power supplies, OPMs, LCR meters, VNAs.
• Hands-on lab experience testing integrated active photonic devices such as photodiodes, modulators and lasers at chip and wafer scale.
• Proficiency in python for programming semiconductor and optical testing equipment.
• Experience with handling experimental data (e.g. analysis, fitting to models, refining simulations based on experimental data) and error analysis.
• Excellence in debugging optical and electronic test systems and deriving actionable insights from complex datasets.
• Ability to operate independently in a fast-paced environment and manage multiple competing priorities

Preferred qualifications and experience:

• MS or Ph.D. thesis in the field of electro-optical characterization of semiconductor devices.
• 1+ years experience as a testing or product engineer of electro-optical devices and/or circuits products/wafers in a professional setting.
• Deep understanding of quantum efficiency measurements of PDs and other parameters extraction from IxV and CxV measurements.
• Deep understanding of S-parameters, 3 dB bandwidth and Vπ extractions.
• Understanding of sources of loss in photonic devices and their relation to fabrication processes.
• Experience working with commercial test solutions from vendors such as FormFactor, Ficontec, MPI, Electroglas, TEL and others.
• Experience in TCAD/COMSOL simulations of semiconductor devices.
