High-Speed Optoelectronic Transceiver Design & Development Engineer

Samtec
Santa Clara, CA
Category Engineering
Job Description
Role Overview

Design and develop high-speed optoelectronic transceiver products, optimizing bandwidth, signal integrity, link budget, and power efficiency. Collaborate with product managers and manufacturing to ensure designs are scalable, cost-effective, and compliant with applicable standards.

What You Will Do

Design and develop high-speed optoelectronic transceiver products, model and simulate RF and optical subsystems, integrate RF components with optical elements, perform hands-on testing and validation of prototypes, and troubleshoot and resolve issues related to RF-optical interactions.

Why It Might Be a Fit

The qualified candidate will be an expert in high-speed optoelectronics with adjacent competencies, able to trade off design decisions across many engineering disciplines. They will translate product requirements into product and project metrics and execute prototype bring-up, integration, characterization, and validation.

Requirements

  • 4+ years of experience in high speed optoelectronic transceiver product design
  • Familiarity with RF design tools (e.g., Keysight ADS, Ansys HFSS) and optical simulation software (e.g., Zemax, OptiSystem)
  • Hands-on experience with RF and optical test equipment
  • Strong knowledge of RF principles and high-speed optoelectronic concepts
  • Ability to analyze and solve complex technical challenges at the intersection of RF and optical domains
  • Bachelor’s Degree in Electrical Engineering, RF Engineering, Photonics Physics or a related field

Benefits

  • Generous bonuses paid three times per year
  • Annual salary range of $210,000- $290,000
