Coherent Corp. is looking for an engineer to design and characterize opto-electrical/rf components for high-speed fiber optic sub-assemblies, focusing on improving reliability, performance, and yield.
Requirements
- Strong academic background and knowledge in the areas of optical communications, RF and Microwave engineering, test and characterization of high-speed devices.
- Experience in advanced packaging of electrical and/or optical devices (flip-chip, BGA, fiber array attachment)
- Hands-on experience on characterization and measurements of s-parameters, bandwidth by using VNA, TDR, VSA, oscilloscope, signal or vector signal generator etc.
- Experience with various simulation modeling tools, such as SW, HFSS, ADS, CST, Matlab, etc.
- Strong laboratory measurement skills required (optical and electrical lab measurements), including script-based test automation
- Extensive experience testing opto-electronic devices
- Knowledge of coherent transmission is plus
Responsibilities
- Primary responsibility is opto-electrical/rf design and characterization of fiber optic sub-assemblies, primarily >100 Gbit/s and higher with focus on coherent transmission.
- Hands-on experience on characterization and measurements of s-parameters, bandwidth by using VNA, TDR, VSA, oscilloscope, signal or vector signal generator etc.
- Experience in advanced packaging of electrical and/or optical devices (flip-chip, BGA, fiber array attachment)
- Work closely with both internal and external suppliers to develop the necessary active components (SiPh PICs, InP components, drivers, TIAs, analog ICs, etc.)
- Identify and drive reliability, performance and yield improvement projects
- Strong laboratory measurement skills required (optical and electrical lab measurements), including script-based test automation
- Experience with various simulation modeling tools, such as SW, HFSS, ADS, CST, Matlab, etc.
Other
- Strong collaborative and communications skills are required for interactions with customers, with the design, process, and manufacturing teams.
- Must be strong in problem solving with excellent communication skills to interact with engineering staff, external vendors, and contractors.
- Interface with internal customers, in both NPI and production organizations.
- This position is hybrid / onsite
- May require occasional off-site meetings or travel
