Résumé du poste

SCINTIL Photonics, Grenoble, France, seeks an III/V Process Integration, Layout and Characterization Engineer to own layout definition aligned with process integration. You will drive interactions with external foundries and collaborate with internal teams across design, industrialization, packaging and testing.

The role requires a strong background in process integration, hands-on layout experience, and proficiency in English.

Qualifications

• Master's degree or PhD in Materials Science, Semiconductor Physics, or a related field
• Minimum 5 years of experience in process integration (PIC, semiconductor, or MEMS) (or PhD + 2 years)
• Proficient in English (C1 level)
• Strong background in process integration (semiconductor or photonics)
• Hands-on experience in layout design tied to process flow
• Knowledge/experience with: InP / AsGa laser process flows, LNO (Lithium Niobate on Insulator), MTP / photonic integration platforms
• Familiarity with: Cleanroom processes (lithography, etch, deposition)
• PDKs and foundry design constraints
• Device physics (photonic / optoelectronic devices)
• Fluent in English (spoken and written)

Responsabilités

• Define and optimize process integration flows for photonic devices
• Translate process flows into robust layout designs (mask layouts)
• Ensure layout compliance with foundry design rules (DRC, LVS when applicable)
• Collaborate with design teams to ensure feasibility and performance
• Act as primary technical contact with external foundries (fabless model)
• Manage tape-outs, process reviews, and fabrication iterations
• Support debugging and yield improvement with foundry partners
• Contribute to device fabrication in partner or internal facilities when needed
• Perform electro-optical characterization of devices
• Analyze results and close the loop with design and process improvements
• Work closely with R&D and industrialization team members across Design, Process development, Packaging and Testing
• Support problem-solving across the full product lifecycle
• Experience working directly with external foundries or MPW runs
• Knowledge of packaging constraints in photonics
• Familiarity with layout tools (e.g., KLayout, Cadence, L-Edit)
• This position will require some regular travels abroad (Europe, US, Asia) (1 / quarter)
• Fluent in English (spoken and written), with the ability to clearly communicate technical concepts
