Descrizione del lavoro

Xanadu is seeking a Sr. Process Integration Engineer for its Santa Clara, CA location to lead fabrication process development for photonic quantum computing hardware.

You will collaborate with design teams and foundry partners to optimize process modules and improve yields on crystalline electro-optic materials like thin film lithium niobate. The role requires a PhD with 10+ years in a foundry environment, strong communication, and the ability to manage external partners.

Competenze

• PhD required in a relevant field.
• ≥10 years in a foundry environment for semiconductor or photonics products.
• Experience with full product development cycle from R&D to volume ramp.
• Experience coordinating with external partners and foundries.
• Proven track record of low loss in integrated photonics components.
• Familiarity with metrology and failure analysis techniques (e.g., SEM, TEM, AFM).
• Strong communication and teamwork; travel ≤20%.

Mansioni

• Contribute to development and optimization of process modules used to build integrated photonic devices from crystalline electro-optic materials, such as thin film lithium niobate.
• Work with Design team to improve yield of optical components and build complex stacks.
• Independently own and direct wafer lots processed at Xanadu’s foundry partners.
• Design and execute fabrication process improvement experiments, including defining fabrication splits, gathering and analyzing inline data.
• Define and execute metrology and failure analysis plans to identify failure modes and assess results.
• Collaborate with internal and external photonics process engineers and foundry partners.
• Challenge the state-of-the-art in key performance metrics of integrated photonics fabrication.
• Stay updated on new developments and rapidly implement learnings.
