Jobs at Neurophos

Lead EDA tooling and physical design infrastructure for analog/mixed-signal IC teams: evaluate and deploy Cadence/Spectre/Calibre toolflows, manage PDKs and TSMC N3P/N2P enablement, architect CAD compute clusters, develop SKILL/Python/Tcl automation, manage licenses/version control, liaise with foundries/vendors, provide hands-on tape-out support, and drive methodology improvements to improve designer productivity and first-pass silicon success.

Lead development of a compiler toolchain for a custom LLM accelerator: design IR/graph transformations and lowering passes, optimize compute and memory patterns, integrate with PyTorch/JAX/Triton, build test infrastructure, and ensure correctness and performance for hybrid optical-electronic hardware.

The Principal Analog Design Engineer will design high-speed analog circuits and collaborate with teams to optimize performance in photonic AI systems.

Develop and optimize high-performance Analog IPs for photonic AI platform, perform custom IC layout, and coordinate with designers and EDA vendors.

Design, simulate, and optimize passive silicon photonic components for AI applications, collaborate with foundry partners and cross-functional teams.

Lead the architecture, design, simulation, validation, and commercialization of silicon photonic devices (grating couplers, waveguides, SOAs, photodetectors). Develop link budgets, collaborate with foundries using PDKs, perform DFM/DFT, run optical simulations, characterize devices in lab, integrate with electro-mechanical and software teams, lead design reviews, support IP and patent filings, and mentor junior engineers.

Develop low-level firmware for a hybrid optical-electronic LLM accelerator: implement board/system management, hardware interfaces, debugging/profiling tools, validate performance, collaborate on software-hardware integration, and support customer integration.

Lead BEOL process integration for an advanced photonic chip at the foundry in Leuven. Own BEOL process flows, SPC/specification management, DOE and process transfers, fault isolation and failure analysis (SEM/FIB/TEM/EDX), and drive yield, reliability, and continuous improvement while coordinating closely with foundry and internal design teams.

Perform die- and wafer-level optical characterization of metasurface photonic devices. Execute spectral and electro-optic measurements, automate instrument control and data acquisition with Python, analyze large datasets to assess yield and device performance, document campaigns, and improve test setups and measurement throughput.

Lead development of inference servers and racks, owning electrical, mechanical, and systems engineering from boards and interconnects through rack-level power and high-speed channel closure. Build and lead the Systems team, drive integration/bring-up, EVT/DVT/PVT sign-off, system reliability (RAS), and manage schedule and budget for full-scale product delivery.

The Principal Optomechanical Design Engineer will design the optomechanical architecture for photonic systems, lead tolerance analyses, and ensure precise optical integration and stability throughout production.
