RSD - Silicon Photonic Component Designer

Job description

Job Description
Intel's Silicon Photonics Product Division SPPD is currently looking for a Silicon Photonic Component Design Engineer to join the team. The successful candidate will be primarily responsible for designing and developing passive photonic components such as optical mux/de-mux, optical coupler/splitter, and spot size convertor, and waveguide polarization beam splitter/rotator which will be monolithically integrated with other active optical components in a silicon photonic transmitter chip. Responsibilities include device design and simulation, test-chip layout design, process design, device evaluation and characterization, and documentation of specifications. He/she will also play an important role in evaluating and determining transmitter chip integration architecture/platform and closely collaborate with process integration engineer for the integrated chip development. This position will be multi-task oriented. You must have an excellent track record in passive optical device design, modeling and simulation, and testing. Be willing to work in a team environment and be able to communicate results with multiple levels of the organization. The ideal candidate should exhibit behavioral traits that indicate:- Strong verbal and written communication skills - Excellent problem solving skills
