We are now looking for a Senior Photonics Engineer for a client based in Ghent.Job responsibilities:
Work as part of a team of photonic engineers and product designers dedicated to develop silicon photonics platform
Lead new projects from R&D stage toward new products introduction (NPI)
Contribute to the design and modelling of photonic components and circuits
Coordinate test plans and analyze experimental data in the R&D phase
Contribute to the definition of new concepts and PIC-based system architectures for novel applications (e.g., 6G photonics, RF/mmWave photonics, 3D/4D image sensing, reservoir computing, IMU sensors etc.)
Work closely with component/module teams
Work closely with the processing and test teams
Depending on your skills and interests, the job can focus more on next-generation product development or developing cutting edge technologies for application further in the future
Requirements & Qualifications:
