Senior Opto-Electronics Engineer

• Design and develop high-speed optoelectronic systems, including optical transceivers and connectivity chip architectures
• Perform system-level modelling and co-simulation of electronic, photonic, and packaging effects
• Co-design electrical and optical interfaces, ensuring signal integrity, bandwidth efficiency, and power optimization
• Develop and implement high-speed interface architectures, spanning host-side SerDes and parallel low-speed optical links, including analog equalization, clocking strategies, and link-level optimization
• Design and simulate analog and mixed-signal CMOS circuits (e.g., drivers, TIAs, PLLs)
• Contribute to ASIC and IC design flows, including architecture definition, modelling, and verification
• Collaborate with internal teams and external partners to support tape-outs, bring-up, and validation of silicon and photonic devices
• Analyze experimental data, align it with simulation outcomes, and drive iterative design improvements to meet performance targets

• PhD in Electrical Engineering, Physics, Photonics, Optical Engineering, or a related field
• Strong background in signal processing for communication systems, analog/mixed-signal circuit design, Integrated circuit (ASIC/CMOS) design
• Proven industry experience in the design and delivery of optoelectronic systems and integrated circuits
• Experience with optical transceivers, connectivity systems, or advanced optical I/O architectures
• Hands-on experience with lab measurements and characterisation (e.g., RF measurements, eye diagrams, BER testing)
• Strong experience in end-to-end link modelling and simulation, including circuit-level (SPICE) and system-level (Python-based) analysis
• Ability to operate effectively in a multi-disciplinary environment
• Excellent communication skills in English, both written and spoken, including the skill to clearly communicate technical results and justify assumptions to diverse technical audiences

• Experience with co-packaged optics, optical interconnects, or data centre networking technologies
• Demonstrated track record of taking designs from concept through tape-out, bring-up, and validation
• Solid foundation in optical communication, including fibre transmission, channel impairments, and system-level trade-offs such as power, reach, bandwidth, latency, and reliability
• Experience collaborating with external manufacturing partners and Tier-1 suppliers across design, fabrication, and system integration phases
