usSalience Labs is developing optical circuit switching technology for AI infrastructure, aimed at reducing latency and cost in data centre networks
As we move towards deployment, you'll have real ownership of your area and work alongside a highly technical team on a hard problem in AI infrastructure.
The roleYou'll join a multi-disciplinary research team in the UK to lead the development of III-V active components for integration with silicon photonics.
You will take devices from epitaxial stack and device design through fabrication with external partners, to characterisation, reliability and qualification.
What you'll be doingLead the design and modelling of III-V active devices, including epitaxial layer structure, gain and power modelling, optical mode design, and electrical and thermal designOwn the technology roadmap and device specifications for your area, translating system.
Requisitos
into device design and integration targetsLead mask design and tape-outs, including GDS layouts, test structures and design-of-experiment splitsManage fabrication runs with external epitaxy and foundry partners: define process flows, review process and in-line data, and resolve yield issues as the technology scalesDefine and lead the characterisation strategy at wafer, chip and integrated-PIC level, including building and automating test setupsAnalyse test data, correlate measured performance with design and process variations, and drive design iterations to close performance gapsWork with packaging and reliability engineers on burn-in, accelerated ageing, failure analysis and qualificationMentor engineers and, as the team grows, help recruit and develop new team membersEssential requirementsPhD in physics, photonics, electrical engineering, optical engineering or a related subject with 6+ years' relevant experience, or a Master's degree with 8+ years' relevant experience, including at least 4 years' hands-on development of III-V optical amplifiers or semiconductor la...
