Job summary

Avicena is seeking a Device Engineer to drive design, fabrication, electro-optical characterization and qualification of GaN microLED devices for the LightBundle interconnect platform in Sunnyvale, CA. You will translate device physics into manufacturable, high-yield emitters, collaborating across epitaxy, process, packaging and test to meet efficiency and speed targets.

The role requires hands-on experience with device design, characterization (L-I-V, spectral, high-speed), and process

Qualifications

• MS/PhD in Electrical Engineering, Applied Physics, Materials Science, Photonics, or related field (or BS with equivalent industry experience).
• 5-8+ years of hands-on semiconductor optoelectronic device engineering experience.
• Strong grasp of device physics and optical emission.
• Experience with electro-optical device characterization and data analysis.
• Working knowledge of semiconductor fabrication processes and their impact on device performance.
• Proficiency with Python and MATLAB; TCAD or device simulation.

Responsibilities

• Device design & modeling to hit efficiency, bandwidth, and reliability targets.
• Fabrication & integration: define and refine process flows; own experiments from wafer to characterization.
• Electro-optical characterization: design and execute L-I-V, spectral and high-speed measurements.
• Diagnose loss mechanisms and drive design/process changes to improve wall-plug efficiency.
• Cross-functional collaboration with epitaxy, process, packaging, test, and systems teams.
• Document specifications, test plans, and contribute to IP and design reviews.
