Optical Interconnect Engineer

We are seeking an experienced Optical Interconnect Engineer to join a fast-growing team working on the design and development of cutting-edge transceiver solutions for ultra-high bandwidth, low latency optical interconnects targeting generative AI, cellular, and high-bandwidth data transfer applications. You will have a proven track record in the testing and characterisation of silicon photonic devices.

Key Responsibilities :

• Developing and executing test plans for wafer and die-level characterisation of silicon photonic ICs
• Designing and maintaining test fixtures such as evaluation modules and probe cards
• Collaborating with design teams to correlate measured results with simulated performance

Requirements :

• Bachelor or Master's in relevant Engineering discipline with 5+ years industry experience
• A proven track record in testing and characterising photonic circuits for optical transceiver applications
• Expert user of high-speed optical and electrical test equipment including laser, OSA, VNA, oscilloscopes and BER testers

The ideal candidate will have strong theoretical understanding of key optical circuits (modulator, detector, coupler) and excellent analytical and problem-solving skills with a data-driven, detail-oriented approach. Additionally, you should have experience working, communicating, and collaborating in a cross-functional team and be able to adapt to a fast-moving start-up environment.

In this role, you will be part of a dynamic team that is pushing the boundaries of optical interconnect technology. If you are passionate about innovative technology and want to be part of a forward-thinking organisation, please submit your application.
