Oxfordshire, United Kingdom Barrington James Full time

Photonics Layout Engineer required to join a rapidly developing startup company, with a focus on utilizing Electronic Design Automation (EDA) tools for the development of complex photonic devices. In this role, you will play a critical part in the design, layout, and optimization of photonic devices, ensuring that they meet the stringent requirements of modern fabrication processes.

RESPONSIBILITIES:

  • Take ownership of the design and layout of photonic devices using state-of-the-art EDA tools.
  • You will be responsible for translating design specifications into precise, manufacturable layouts that meet performance and reliability criteria.
  • Leverage your deep understanding of photonic and semiconductor fabrication processes to guide and inform the layout process. Your knowledge will ensure that layouts are optimized for manufacturability, yield, and performance, taking into account process variations and constraints.
  • Create, import, and manage custom photonic devices within the EDA flow. This includes defining device parameters, ensuring compatibility with existing design flows, and working closely with design teams to integrate these devices into larger systems.
  • Lead the development, maintenance, and optimization of EDA tools and flows specific to photonic devices. This includes defining best practices, automating processes where possible, and staying current with advancements in EDA technology to continually improve efficiency and accuracy.
  • Work closely with multidisciplinary teams to ensure that layouts meet the overall design goals. Additionally, maintain comprehensive documentation of layout methodologies, design rules, and EDA tool configurations to support reproducibility and knowledge sharing within the team.

REQUIREMENTS:

  • Strong Knowledge in Mixed-Signal EDA Tooling: Demonstrated expertise in mixed-signal EDA tools, with a strong preference for candidates who have experience with photonics-specific EDA tools.
  • A proven ability to deliver precise and error-free layouts that meet all design and fabrication requirements.
  • Proficiency in layout design, Design Rule Checking (DRC), and Layout Versus Schematic (LVS) flows, ensuring that designs are compliant with fabrication constraints and are correctly implemented.
  • Familiarity with Verilog for simulation purposes and schematic design capture, enabling seamless integration of photonic devices with electronic systems.
  • Experience in creating custom layouts and working with GDSII formats, ensuring that layouts are correctly exported and ready for fabrication.
  • A strong understanding of silicon fabrication processes is required, with additional experience in photonic-specific processes being highly advantageous
  • Ability to troubleshoot and resolve complex design and layout challenges, using both theoretical knowledge and practical experience.

BENEFITS

  • Competitive market salary
  • The chance to work for a rapidly developing company
  • Stock options
  • Long term employee incentives
  • Work with Talented Engineers from across the globe
  • Relocation package
  • Clear development pathway
