Description

You will define and architect optical transceiver modules (1.6T and beyond) matching product requirements.

Responsibilities

  • Design high-speed PCB schematics covering power, control, and signal interfaces for optical modules.
  • Guide layout engineers to meet mechanical, signal integrity, thermal, and manufacturing constraints during PCB layout.
  • Lead technical validation, bring-up, and performance optimization of optical transceivers.
  • Support design validation, qualification, and root-cause analysis through development and production ramp.
  • Contribute to automation of transceiver performance testing using Python, C++, or LabVIEW.

Required Skills

  • 10+ years of experience in optical transceiver design, fiber optics, RF modulation, and networking systems.
  • Hands-on experience with PCB schematic design and layout review for optical modules.
  • Experience with high-speed opto-electrical system design, including DSPs, power rails, and microcontroller interfaces.
  • Familiarity with MSA and IEEE standards for optical transceivers (e.g., QSFP, OSFP, CMIS).
  • Proficiency in testing transceiver performance: TDECQ, receiver sensitivity, stressed eye measurements.
  • Experience with DSP configuration and FIR equalization optimization for PAM4/NRZ signaling.
  • Software scripting ability for automation using Python, C++, or LabVIEW.
  • Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering or related field.
