GaN Technology Engineer
Onsite working in Spain
The Engineer at a foundry specializing in the fabrication and design of photonic components based on Gallium Nitride (GaN) plays a key role in supporting the development, optimization, and characterization of integrated photonic devices. Engineers are responsible for executing tasks under supervision, developing technical skills, and contributing to project deliverables.
Responsibilities:
-Execute assigned tasks in the design, simulation, and layout of integrated photonic devices using GaN.
-Assist in the design, simulation, and layout of GaN-based photonic and optoelectronic devices (e.g., LEDs, laser diodes).
-Support process development and optimization for GaN-based device fabrication.
-Participate in technical reviews and internal training.
-Conduct data analysis and contribute to technical documentation and reporting.
-Collaborate with process engineers and designers to troubleshoot device performance and yield issues.
-Follow cleanroom protocols and ensure compliance with safety and quality standards.
-Document results and maintain accurate records of experiments, measurements, and fabrication steps.
Required Education:
-Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Engineering, Applied Physics, Photonics, Materials Science, Optoelectronics, or a related field.
-Academic or research experience in III-V semiconductors or photonic integration is highly valued.
Technical Skills:
-Solid understanding of semiconductor physics, photonics, and optoelectronic device principles.
-Familiarity with GaN-specific fabrication processes.
-Experience with photonic design and simulation tools such as:
-KLayout, Cadence, or IPKISS
-Lumerical (FDTD, MODE)
-COMSOL Multiphysics
-Knowledge of PDKs (Process Design Kits) and DRC (Design Rule Checking).
-Hands-on experience with optical/electrical test setups and equipment (e.g., optical spectrum analyzers, probe stations, power meters).
-Experience with device simulation tools (e.g., Lumerical, Silvaco, COMSOL) for optical, electrical, and thermal modeling.
-Programming/scripting skills in Python, MATLAB, or similar for data analysis and automation.
-Familiarity with cleanroom fabrication processes: photolithography, etching, deposition, metallization, wafer bonding, etc.
-Proficiency in technical English, both written and spoken.
