Education Recommendations
Currently a candidate for a Master's or PhD degree in Electrical Engineering, Physics, Applied Physics, or other similar field with an accredited school in US.

* Develop advanced semiconductor and optical packaging processes in-house or with contract manufacturers.
* Design optical transceiver packages in collaboration with cross-functional teams to meet performance and manufacturing requirements.
* Define and maintain Design Rules and ensure compliance with Design for Manufacturing standards.
* Perform mechanical and thermal simulations, tolerance analysis, and characterization.
* Lead package debug activities during validation and qualification phases.
* Plan and execute prototype builds to support early design validation.
* Apply deep knowledge of advanced packaging principles and stay current with emerging technologies

Profil requis du candidat:

* Experience with package and process design/development from design to production.
* Knowledge of design for manufacturing, 2.5D/3D packaging, and TSVs.
* Experience with documentation of fabrication, inspection, and assembly processes.
* Solid interpersonal, communication and problem-solving skills in order to interact with engineering staff, external vendors and contractors effectively.
It would be nice if you also had:
* Knowledge of optical packaging, including epoxies, non-hermetic and high-volume packaging, plus thermal analysis for 2.5D/3D packages.
* Experience in semiconductor back-end processes: chip/wafer assembly and packaging.
Familiarity with high-speed electronics or laser package design.
* Skills in thermo-mechanical simulations (e.g., ANSYS) and metrology techniques (SEM/XSEM, confocal microscopy, acoustic imaging).
* Understanding of optical packaging design and simulations using free-space optics or fiber coupling
