Photonics Test Engineer

As a Photonics Test Engineer in our fabless silicon photonics design house, you will be the key validator of our PIC performance. You will bridge design and mass production by developing test strategies that ensure our chips meet the rigorous demands of AI, LiDAR, and high-speed communication. Your work turns simulation into silicon reality.

Responsibilities:

Define design verification test plans, analyze device performance, and provide feedback for design improvement

Perform detailed characterization of active and passive integrated photonic devices on chip-level and wafer-level

Develop programs for test automation and data post-processing

Design and implement die sorting tests, interpret data, and conduct yield analysis

Interface with packaging and reliability teams to support high-volume production

Participate in R&D projects for next-generation products

Other ad-hoc tasks as assigned

Requirements:

Minimum Master's Degree in EE, Optical Engineering, or Semiconductor Physics

Hands-on experience in characterization of active/passive integrated photonic devices (DC/AC, OO/EO/OE measurements)

Hands-on experience in optical alignment and electrical probing procedures

Experience in test setup development, maintenance, and equipment sourcing

Proficiency in programming for instrument control, test automation, and large dataset post-processing

Good understanding of guided-wave optical device working principles

Background in 3D sensing, LiDAR, or autonomous navigation is a plus

Experience in active organic materials, compound materials, or hybrid integration is a plus

Familiarity with semiconductor foundry and subassembly processes is a plus

Strong self-motivation, excellent communication, and cross-functional teamwork
