Photonic Integrated Circuit (Quantum Chip) Design Engineer

Responsibilities:

1. Device design, simulation and performance optimization of silicon (SOI) / silicon nitride (SiN) photonic quantum chips (couplers, splitters, microrings, etc.).
2. Layout drawing, DRC verification, and end-to-end tape-out coordination with foundries.
3. Define chip test plans, analyze test data, and drive design iteration.
4. Author design documentation; collaborate with quantum-algorithm and packaging/test teams across the full development cycle.

Requirements:

1. Master's degree or above in Optics, Photonics, Physics, Microelectronics, Quantum Information, or related fields.
2. 3+ years in integrated photonic / photonic-quantum chip design with a complete tape-out project.
3. Proficient with Lumerical, COMSOL; familiar with Klayout / PhotoCAD and silicon-photonics process & PDK; Python / MATLAB scripting.
4. Strong communication and English reading skills.
5. Plus: high-speed modulator/detector design; heterogeneous integration (III-V, LiNbO3); IMEC/AMF PDK; publications/patents.
