    Job Description

    Summary

    AOI is a leading supplier of high-speed transceivers used in fiber optical communications. We are looking for a highly motivated Semiconductor Laser Design and Modeling Engineer. Responsibilities include design, modeling, and simulations of InP and GaAs based high-speed and high-power semiconductor lasers. The candidate is responsible for creating models and software to develop next-generation new optoelectronics products in a young & dynamic RD team.

    Responsibilities

    • Apply in-house design packages, commercial software, and self-written scripts to create high-speed or high-power laser device modeling and simulations, including optical waveguide, DC, RF, and thermal simulations.
    • Design process flow and photomask with device fabrication engineers.
    • Coordinate design verification with in-house Growth, Processing, Packaging, Characterization, and Reliability teams.
    • Analyze experimental results to improve the design or model.
    • Work as a team to propose new laser designs and provide supports to design optimizations.
    • Provide regular written and oral reports on design tasks and progresses.

    Qualifications

    • Ph.D. degree in Electrical Engineering, Physics, Optics or other related fields; or M.S. degree with 5+ years relevant laser design experiences.
    • 2+ years of work experience in semiconductor laser design is preferred.
    • Education can generally be substituted for required specialized experience.
    • Preferably having previous design experiences in one or more of the following areas: high-speed laser, electro absorption modulated laser (EML), vertical cavity surface- emitting laser (VCSEL), and high power laser.
    • Mastery of Matlab or other programming languages.
    • Fully understand theories of semiconductor laser, photodetector, and other optoelectronic devices.
    • Knowledge of basic semiconductor device fabrication process is a plus
    • Self-motivated, careful, detail-oriented, and ability to think logically.
