Design passive and active photonic components at Xanadu using simulation pipelines, design experiments, and manufacturing-aware analysis. Work within the photonic integration team.As a Senior Photonics Design Engineer, you will develop components for Xanadu’s fault-tolerant architecture. Apply design of experiments, design for manufacturing, scripted mask design, and scalable analysis pipelines.
Explore performance tradeoffs with 200mm and 300mm fabrication partners while closing the design loop. Your work will target sub-milli-dB-loss components through advanced analysis and simulation techniques.Key Responsibilities:
Develop passive and active integrated optical componentsExecute design of experiments for photonic componentsApply design-for-manufacturing concepts to component developmentExplore performance tradeoffs with fabrication partnersUse analysis pipelines to close the design loopRequirements:
Master’s or PhD in engineering, science, or related fieldTwo or more years’ industrial experienceExpertise designing passive integrated optical componentsDeep experience with scripted photonic mask designUnderstanding of photonic loss and fabrication processesBring photonic integration, simulation, mask design, and manufacturing expertise to Xanadu’s fault-tolerant architecture development.
