Job responsibilities:

• Work as part of a team of photonic engineers and product designers dedicated to develop Huawei’s silicon photonics device and product portfolio.
• Lead new concept studies as well as product development projects from R&D stage toward new products introduction (NPI).
• Design and model photonic components and circuits.
• Contribute to chip design reviews to assure that designs meet defined specifications.
• Validate designs by defining test plans and performing statistical analysis of measurement data in the R&D phase.
• Guide the definition of PIC-based system architectures for novel applications (e.g., new materials for high-baud-rate transceivers, optical DSP, 6G photonics, RF/mmWave photonics, photonics for AI, 3D/4D image sensing, photonic neural network).
• Work closely with local processing and test teams, as well as with global based component/module teams.
• Interact with stakeholders to secure funding and resources for new R&D project execution
  Perform literature reviews and participate to conferences to continuously support our R&D activities with new ideas and solutions.

Requirements & Qualifications:

• In depth knowledge of integrated optics and optoelectronics components and systems

Education requirements:

Ph.D. in Photonics, Electrical Engineering, Physics, or related field, and 5+ years of work experience in the photonics industry

Experience requirements:

• Design and test of silicon photonics and III-V components.
• Working knowledge of how to integrate PICs with EICs, RF ICs, and driving circuitry in transceiver modules or equivalent sub-system applications.
• Proven track record of project/product management skills, bringing new components or systems to market in volume production.
• Experience in product development (spec. definition, yield improvement strategies, customer-oriented attitude, business acumen for new business opportunities) would be an asset.
• Experience in effective communication with stakeholders to secure internal funding for new R&D projects as well as market/business landscape analysis.
• Hands on experience with photonics modelling tools (e.g. Photon design, Lumerical, COMSOL, CST)
  Hands on experience with layout tools (e.g. Tanner L-Edit, Luceda Ipkiss)
• Experience with Luceda Ipkiss would be an advantage
• Experience with Python would be an advantage
• Experience with VPI software would be an advantage
