Electronics Engineer
What would your ideal photonics role look like if you could own more than just one part of the design cycle?
I’m working with early-stage deep-tech companies building next‑generation photonic hardware for advanced computing, communications and emerging semiconductor platforms.
These teams are working across
silicon photonics, SiN, advanced integration and new device architectures
, and they’re looking for engineers who want broader ownership across the PIC development lifecycle.
What you could work on:
- PIC design and layout
- Tapeout and foundry interaction
- PDKs and photonic design flows
- Silicon photonics / SiN
- Fabrication and process development
- Design verification, DRC and LVS
- Cadence/Virtuoso, KLayout, Lumerical, Luceda, Tidy3D or similar
What they’re looking for:
Engineers with experience in
integrated photonics / PICs
, whether your background is in
design, layout, fabrication, test, characterization or a combination of these
.
If you’ve worked across photonic hardware and enjoy getting involved in more than one part of the development cycle, these could be particularly interesting opportunities.
US-based, onsite opportunities
$150K–$220K base + equity
, depending on experience
If you could choose, would you rather spend your next role
deep in PIC design
, closer to
fab/process
, or somewhere in between?
