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.
