About the role
Senior individual contributor with leadership focus responsible for end-to-end technical program execution of complex Co-Packaged Optics (CPO) and Silicon Photonics (SiPho) interconnect hardware from concept to mass production, coordinating across multiple engineering groups and driving on-time delivery of aerospace-grade interconnect solutions.
Responsibilities
- Drive the full program lifecycle of advanced CPO and interconnect test solutions — from requirements through architecture, design, bring-up, characterization, qualification, and release to HVM (high-volume manufacturing)
- Act as the technical focal point across parallel workstreams including Board Design, Silicon Photonics, Opto-Mechanics, Thermal, FW/SW, DFT, Process Engineering, Manufacturing, and Quality
- Mentor engineers, conduct design reviews, and deliver constructive feedback to elevate team capabilities
- Consolidate requirements from internal stakeholders into a comprehensive plan of record; coordinate resource allocation and team assignments
- Define and execute the validation and coverage strategy from die to system level; develop characterization plans, test methodologies, automation frameworks, and data analysis pipelines
- Perform hands-on electrical and optical debugging, failure analysis, and failure segmentation; drive root-cause analysis across multiple domains
- Develop scripting and automation solutions (Python) for test automation, data collection, hardware control, and production optimization
- Partner with manufacturing and production engineering teams to build robust test solutions for mass production and improve yield and test coverage
Qualifications
- B.Sc. or M.Sc. in Electrical Engineering, Electro-Optics, Applied Physics, or related field (or equivalent experience)
- 12+ years in hardware system engineering, characterization, and/or product engineering for electro-optical or high-speed communication products
- 5+ years as a technical lead across multi-disciplinary projects end-to-end
- Proven technical program management experience from concept through mass production
- Hands-on hardware design, lab bring-up, characterization, debug, and electrical specification review
- Proficiency in Python scripting, data analysis (JMP or equivalent), test automation, and hardware control interfaces (I2C, SPI, JTAG)
- Strong communication and interpersonal skills with ability to influence senior stakeholders and global teams
- Self-driven ownership mindset; able to solve end-to-end problems in fast-paced, multi-project environments
