How You Will Contribute

• Perform hands-on RF and electro-optic measurements (probed and connectorized) to characterize and model high-speed optoelectronic components up to 250 GHz.
• Design, implement, support and document test solutions and calibrations for new devices evaluation.
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams to develop prototypes and products built on various photonic integrated circuit platforms.
• Participate in design reviews, document technical results, and track RF and electro-optic performance against design targets.

The Must Haves

• Bachelor’s degree in electrical engineering, applied physics, or a related discipline; recent graduates are encouraged to apply.
• Understanding measurement, and calibration techniques.
• Demonstrated interest in hands-on laboratory work, measurement setup, debugging, and rigorous analysis of experimental data.

Assets

• Knowledge of simulation tools such as Ansys HFSS, Keysight ADS, or other RF simulation tools.
• Basic understanding of high-frequency amplifiers and transimpedance amplifiers.
• Knowledge of vector network analyzers.
• Knowledge of high-speed opto-electronic devices such as modulators and photodetectors.
• Knowledge of digital modulation principles and communication techniques.
