Develop automated test solutions for optical components and PICs, write functional test software, and support manufacturing partners in high-speed optical network equipment.
We are looking for a highly motivated professional with a solid understanding of Manufacturing Test Engineering. As a Photonic Test Engineer, you will develop automated manufacturing test solutions and provide technical support to our manufacturing partners. You will be a part of an international test development team, embedded in a worldwide Optical Research and Development organization.
- Development of fully automated production-level test solutions for optical components, modules and assemblies used in high speed optical network equipment
- Develop FT (Functional Test) SW to test functionality and quality of PIC (Photonic Integrated Circuit)
- Monitor production data, diagnose process variations, troubleshoot test stations, perform GRR
- Provide technical support to manufacturing partners. Assist with product failure analysis and troubleshooting
- Review and contribute to technical documentation (schematics, test specifications, test set layout, product testability)
- Support the adaptation of the test station from the R&D phase into high-volume manufacturing test platforms
- Interface with product development teams (software, hardware, firmware, Optical) and worldwide EMS partners
You have:
- BS or MS degree in a relevant field (Electrical, Electronics, Optics, RF) or equivalent work experience.
- Hands-on experience with Optical test and measurement instruments: OSA (optical spectrum analyzers), TLS (tunable laser sources), EDFAs, wavelength meters, power meters.
- 3+ years experience in Functional Test SW development for photonic, optical, electronics and electrical components/modules. Python preferred.
It would be nice if you also had:
- Hands-on experience with RF test and measurement instruments: Power Meters, Spectrum Analysers, Signal Generators, VNA.
- Debug and failure root cause analysis skills. Data Analysis: measurement data review to extract parameters and performance metrics.
- Willingness to periodically travel (domestic and international, less than 15%). Understanding of Coherent optical transmission desirable.
