Responsibilities
- Define the Rx PIC architecture, including optical input coupling, routing, demultiplexing, and layout of dense photodetector arrays
- Design and optimize high-speed photodetectors for responsivity, dark current, capacitance, bandwidth, linearity, and saturation
- Model the device and receiver with optical, electrical, and RF simulation
- Work with the electronic IC team on the PD–TIA interface
- Analyze array-level effects such as optical and electrical crosstalk, uniformity, thermal behavior, and yield
Requirements
- PhD in Electrical Engineering, Applied Physics, or Physics
- Nice to have: 5+ years of experience developing high-speed silicon photonics receivers or photodetectors
