Job summary

Photonic Inc. is seeking a Senior Foundry Integration Engineer to lead integration of silicon photonic fabrication with external foundries, accelerating learning and production ramp. You will coordinate across design, modeling, yield, and systems teams to mature processes and deliver robust chip production.

The role emphasizes experimentation, data‑driven decisions, and close collaboration with external partners to translate requirements into concrete fabrication strategies.

Qualifications

• Master’s or PhD in Electrical Engineering, Physics, Materials Science or closely related field.
• 3+ years of industry experience in process integration, semiconductor fabrication, or related roles.
• Hands‑on experience with a commercial semiconductor foundry.
• Strong understanding of semiconductor process integration, unit processes, and cross‑module interactions in both foundry and university cleanrooms.
• Experience and intuition in silicon photonics fabrication and design.
• Demonstrated ability to design experiments, analyze data, and drive data‑informed technical decisions.
• Excellent communication skills across organizational boundaries.

Responsibilities

• Own and execute process integration plans across external commercial foundries to mature and stabilize fabrication flows.
• Define, organize, and drive experiments to accelerate learning and drive product performance.
• Design experiments, analyze fabrication and measurement results, and synthesize data into clear technical conclusions.
• Define next step process improvements and development priorities based on experimental outcomes.
• Lead technical engagement with foundries, including aligning on integration intent, process assumptions, and learning objectives.
• Translate system level and device level requirements into actionable fabrication strategies.
• Collaborate with internal teams across nanofabrication, design, modeling, yield, and systems to produce chips supporting core technology.
• Ultimately drive successful production ramp of chips through improved yield, reproducibility, and process robustness.
