Key Responsibilities
Validate models by designing and conducting experiments for empirical data collection and analysis
Detailed simulations and modeling of link, power, and thermal budgets to deliver photonic systems to specification
Work closely with photonics designers, optics, mechanical engineers, and system engineers to create system POC and provide technical guidance for full system prototype designs
Manage core technical details of new photonics prototypes and systems to ensure key results from concept phase translate through to full system demonstration
Perform FA and debugging for early prototypes
Requirements
2+ years of hands-on experience in characterization of photonic systems, components, subassemblies, and/or modules
Excellent understanding of active and passive photonics components, electrical components, and thermal/mechanical interfaces
MS or PhD in electrical engineering, physics, or other photonics related field
Experience with lidar systems or optical transceivers, preferably chip scale implementations
Background in system level modeling for lidar or optical links.
Strong organizational and interpersonal skills with an ability to learn on the fly
Experience using python, MATLAB, JMP, R, or similar for modelling and data analysis
