Hiring: Photonic Test and Packaging Engineer Company: Lightwave Logic, Inc. Location: Englewood, CO Job Posted Time: 2026-09-10 07:38:32 Target Skills & Keywords : Fiber, Matplotlib, Pandas, Python, TestNG About the job Experience: •3 years of hands-on experience in an optics or semiconductor laboratory. Required Skills: •Execute precision optical alignment and manual landing of probes on semiconductor dies to test the performance of photonic devices. •Collect, analyze, and report data on device metrics such as Insertion Loss, Vpi, Extinction Ratio, RF, and EO bandwidth, etc. •Use Python code to perform automated measurements and make modifications to acquisition code and photonic setup when required. •Assist in performing electro-optical characterization of thin film samples (including Teng-Man and other optical measurements) following established protocols. •Assist in reliability study schedules: loading and unloading samples from aging chambers and performing measurements at critical times. •Perform the poling procedure on electro-optic polymer devices. This involves applying DC fields across the device while managing thermal profiles to align chromophores in the polymer. •Monitor leakage currents and probe contact during the poling process to ensure device yield. •Conduct prototype packaging operations to transition devices from bare die to testable modules. Qualifications: •M.S. or Ph.D. in Electrical or Mechanical Engineering, Optics, Photonics, Physics, or a related field. •1–3 years of hands-on experience in an optics or semiconductor laboratory. •Strong fundamental understanding of fiber optics, waveguides, and optical alignment. •Demonstrated ability to manipulate wafer probe stations and successfully land probes on small pads without causing damage. •Proficiency in Python, familiarity with libraries such as PyVISA, Pandas, or Matplotlib. •With Tunable Lasers, Optical Power Meters, Source Measure Units (SMUs), and Oscilloscopes. •Demonstrated capacity to carefully follow precise recipes and document experimental conditions rigorously. •Demonstrated capacity to present scientific results clearly by highlighting relevant takeaways and using effective data plotting. Compensation: •Competitive benefits and rewards package Interested candidates, please apply directly through the job posting on company's career page or try via AI auto apply on this platform.
