Description

Senior Photonics Characterization Engineer

Team: Photonics

Location: Mountain View, CA

Workplace Type: onsite

Aeva is building the next generation of sensing and perception for autonomous vehicles and beyond. With its unique ability to measure instantaneous velocity for each pixel, long-range performance at high resolutions, while being free from LiDAR or sunlight interference, Aeva’s 4D LiDAR is built from the ground up at silicon photonics scale for mass-market applications.

We are looking for an expert in photonics characterization to join our core engineering team!

What you'll do:

  • Responsible for the characterization of novel optical, electrical, and electro-optical photonic devices and circuits.
  • Strong expertise in understanding, adding to and developing test software
  • Define test plan for devices and circuits and develop new tests
  • Work cross-functionally to transfer tests to production
  • Perform wafer-level and die-level probing using DC and RF probe stations
  • Develop and maintain automated test setups using Python, MATLAB
  • Analyze large datasets to extract trends, correlations, and performance limits using Python, JMP or other similar software.
  • Identify process sensitivities and systematic error sources

What you have:

  • Masters or PhD in Physics, Electrical Engineering, Optical Science or related technical discipline.
  • Hands-on experience in photonic device characterization.
  • Extensive experience with DC/RF probe, wafer-level / die-level tester development.
  • Understanding of silicon photonics devices and architectures.
  • Proficient in Python or MATLAB for testing automation and data analysis

Nice to have:

  • Experience with development of complex photonics circuits
  • Knowledge of foundry PDKs and silicon photonics process constraints
  • Experience in high-volume test or yield analysis
  • Hands on process development experience for optical alignments

What's in it for you:

  • Be part of a fast paced and dynamic team
  • Very competitive compensation and meaningful stock grants
  • Exceptional benefits: Medical, Dental, Vision, and more
  • Unlimited PTO: We care about results, not punching timecards
