Integrated Photonics Team Overview

As part of the Integrated Photonics team, you will be at the forefront of developing novel integrated photonic devices and (heterogeneous) systems for a wide range of applications. The focus of your position will be on InP component and chip design for different applications (high speed interconnects, sensing, and free-space light manipulation and steering). You will work with internal and external partners to further integrate these chips in (heterogeneous) InP/SiN assemblies and jointly validate such systems in a lab environment.

Your Responsibilities:

1. Design, simulation, and optimization of PIC components (passive waveguides, modulators, MMIs, etc.).
2. Design full PICs for different applications (high speed interconnects, sensing, and free-space light manipulation and steering).
3. Opto-electronic PIC design.
4. Perform DoE to increase PIC component tolerance to fabrication variations.
5. Electrical (DC and high speed) and optical characterization of chips.
6. Guide and lead chip layout for in-house fabrications, MPWs, and dedicated runs at external foundries.
7. Manage projects and initiate/lead partner/customer interactions.
8. Create algorithms to speed up chips design, layout, and characterization.
9. Contribute to high-quality reports, publications, and documentation and attend conferences.
