Full Job Description

Job responsibilities

  • Develop and innovate critical photonics heterogeneous III-V integration modules. Drive multi-functional teams to optimize existing process flows and develop new innovative integration solutions to meet potential product requirements and manufacturability.
  • Develop or redefine critical criteria/aspects for optimal design performances and process capability.  Initiate DOE (Design of Experiments) evaluations to characterize process window for new design/product requirements
  • Pro-active in evaluating and implementing new integration schemes. Establish proof of concept for future tech roadmap.
  • Take on an active attitude to summarize complex problems, explain actions taken to address them with clarity, and align with unit process, design and fabrication teams.
  • Extract and analyse inline, GDS layout, parametric, reliability, and other critical metrics to construct predictive modelling on the photonics device performance and specification.
  • Coordinate activities with multi-functional teams to ensure timely wafers handling to meet deadline requirements.
  • Require certain amount of working time in research fab/cleanroom environment for experiment and data collection.

Job Requirements

  • PhD in Electronics Engineering, Microelectronics, Physics, or equivalent.
  • Experience in semiconductor lasers/photodetectors design especially the familiarity with indium phosphide active device design—such as epitaxial layer stacks, cavity structures, and related aspects is highly preferred.
  • Good critical thinking and problem-solving ability.
  • Able to work in clean room environment.
  • Able to work with cross-functional team, with good communication/presentation skill. 
  • Able to work in a fast-paced and collaborative environment.
