Teams at Neurophos

Own the end-to-end performance architecture and quantitative modeling of Neurophos’s optical vector-matrix multiplication signal path. Build link and power budgets, model optical, analog, digital, quantization, and algorithmic impairments, allocate accuracy and performance targets, and run Monte Carlo and time-domain simulations. Correlate models with laboratory and silicon measurements, conduct throughput and efficiency trade studies, collaborate across photonic, analog, digital, and software teams, and mentor engineers.

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.

Leads end-to-end architecture, performance budgeting, interface control, supplier oversight, hardware and software alignment, laboratory integration, and bring-up of a multidisciplinary photonic computing prototype. Owns the prototype as a long-term experimental platform, designing impairment characterization campaigns, evaluating encoding schemes, maintaining calibration and measurement infrastructure, and translating results into future system architecture decisions.
