Principal Photonics Architect

My client is seeking a Principal Photonic Integrated Circuit (PIC) Engineer in the UK to work on the design and development of next-generation high-speed photonic ICs for advanced optical systems.
Responsibilities
Lead the architecture and design of high-speed PICs for optical communications and sensing
Develop and optimise photonic devices (e.g., modulators, detectors, waveguides) for high-bandwidth operation
Perform modelling, simulation, and layout of integrated photonic circuits
Work closely with electronics, packaging, and systems teams to deliver integrated solutions
Provide technical leadership and mentor engineers within the photonics team
Requirements
PhD or MSc in Photonics, Physics, Electrical Engineering, or a related discipline
Significant experience designing photonic integrated circuits
Strong understanding of high-speed optical device physics and photonic design tools
Track record of delivering complex engineering projects
Desirable
Experience with silicon photonics or heterogeneous integration platforms
Knowledge of high-speed optical transceivers or coherent communication systems
If you have good background in Photonic ICs, please get in touch with Phil Wright at IC Resources.
