Integrated photonics and optical measurement define this Senior Photonic Engineer role at Xanadu, focused on experimental validation of complex photonic systems. As a senior experimentalist, you will characterize photonic integrated chips with high-speed electro-optic elements. The work combines optical laboratory experiments, phase locking, RF electronics, and Python-based data analysis. You will help develop systems for practical quantum computers. Key Responsibilities:
Design and upgrade optical laboratory experiments using continuous-wave and pulsed lasers Measure photonic integrated chips with fast electro-optic modulators Troubleshoot stability, noise, crosstalk, polarization,
and switching performance Maintain optical phase locks and develop calibration protocols Document specifications, procedures, reports, and operational manuals Requirements:
Laboratory proficiency with RF and opto-electronic equipment Understanding of phase locking, phase noise, and polarization noise Knowledge of RF electronics, detectors, and electro-optic modulators Python or similar programming for acquisition and analysis Master of Science or Doctor of Philosophy degree in a related field Apply photonic characterization, optical stabilization, and experimental engineering expertise to Xanadu’s quantum computing work.
