Zusammenfassung

Quandela in Massy is seeking an Integrated Photonics designer to build robust, manufacturable PIC components and drive alignment from simulation to tape-out. You will design waveguides, interferometers and reconfigurable elements, translating system requirements into scalable layouts while collaborating with characterization teams.

The role emphasizes close interaction with fabrication constraints, design-for-manufacturing, and ongoing architectural improvements for future scalable quantum

Qualifikationen

• Master’s or PhD in Photonics, Physics, Electronic Engineering or related field
• Hands-on experience in PIC simulation (Lumerical strongly preferred)
• Experience translating simulations into manufacturable layouts using GDS-based tools (GDSFactory, IPKISS, KLayout, or similar)
• Understanding of integrated photonics fundamentals (waveguide physics, interferometers, beam splitters and phase control mechanisms)
• Ability to reason at circuit level, beyond individual components
• Professional English

Aufgaben

• Design and simulate photonic components
• Translate simulations into manufacturable layouts
• Collaborate with characterization
• Iteratively refine designs based on fabrication variability and experimental feedback
• Contribute to continuous performance improvements
