Offer Description

You will become part of a team working on the development of different material platforms for Integrated Photonics. In particular, this position deals with the development of numerical analysis tool to study large amount of data coming from the wafer-level testing of many photonic integrated circuits with the goal of improving the foundry process in terms of performance and reproducibility, both at the wafer level and from wafer to wafer. Analysis of the tested devices and feedback to a PDK to close the design to test loop is also part of the tasks of the project.

You will team up with a PhD student also employed in the same project and with all the members of the IOS Team and a consortium of industrial partners.
