- Lead the validation and characterization of silicon photonic devices, defining test strategies from early prototype through to qualification
- Analyse and interpret measurement data to extract underlying device physics, identify performance limitations, and drive root-cause analysis
- Execute and/or oversee wafer-level probing and automated test systems for scalable device validation
- Take full ownership of validation activities, from test definition and setup architecture to execution, automation, data analysis and reporting
- Lead debugging of complex device and system-level issues, including ambiguous or conflicting measurement results
- Collaborate closely with design, process, packaging and system teams, acting as the key interface between measurement data and engineering decisions
- MSc or PhD in Physics (semiconductor, solid-state), Electrical Engineering or a related field
- A few years of industry or advanced research experience in photonic device characterization or validation
- Deep understanding of silicon photonic and semiconductor device physics, including the ability to connect measurements to physical mechanisms
- Hands-on experience with electro-optical characterization at wafer, die level or package level
- Strong background in data analysis, modelling and interpretation (Python, Matlab or similar), including handling large datasets
- Ability to communicate clear, concise and insightful technical conclusions tailored to different stakeholders
- Fluent English; German is a plus
