The role mentors multidisciplinary teams and collaborates with R&D, manufacturing, suppliers, customers, and academic partners on emerging photonic technologies including microLEDs and optical interconnects.

Develop and optimize semiconductor fabrication processes for MicroLED and optical interconnect products. Responsibilities include defining process architecture and modules, improving pixel performance, planning experiments, analyzing data, conducting risk assessments and design reviews, specifying new tooling and process recipes, and presenting recommendations to management. The role is approximately 60% hands-on cleanroom work and 40% experimental planning, analysis, and cross-functional communication.

Lead architecture and development of next-generation optical interconnects spanning ASICs, SerDes, photonics, optical engines, packaging, and system interfaces. Define link architectures, electrical and optical specifications, budgets, performance requirements, and technology roadmaps. Evaluate silicon photonics, co-packaged optics, optical I/O, emitters, receivers, and advanced packaging. Collaborate across semiconductor and photonics teams, support prototypes and validation, and assess technologies through production readiness.

The Senior Equipment Engineer will monitor high-tech equipment performance, ensure maintenance, participate in tool selection, provide technical support, and optimize equipment reliability.

The Equipment Tech Lead oversees MOCVD equipment reliability and performance, driving continuous improvement and leading troubleshooting efforts while collaborating with engineering teams.

Owns SAP finance systems as the Finance super-user, including FI/CO configuration, integrations, controls, issue resolution, and system-driven month-end close activities. The role improves financial processes through automation, supports audits, system rollouts, migrations, reporting, and ancillary finance applications. It also trains users, documents best practices, and collaborates with IT and operational teams on cross-module SAP issues.

The Senior Infrastructure & Platform Engineer strengthens infrastructure capabilities, focusing on cloud and automation, managing Windows Server, VMware, Kubernetes, and AWS environments, alongside developing Infrastructure as Code and CI/CD pipelines.

As a Project Manager, lead cross-functional teams to deliver technology development and NPI programs, managing risks and ensuring timely project execution.

Lead the development and optimization of manufacturing processes while coordinating with Technical Process Leads and managing engineering teams. Drive continuous improvement and ensure process stability in production.

Lead the development of fabrication processes for MicroLED and Optical Computing. Conduct risk assessments, optimize processes, and drive innovation within a high-performing team.

The Principal Device Simulation Engineer will lead simulations of semiconductor devices, validate models, mentor engineers, and enhance simulation tools for advanced optical technologies.

The Technical Lead Epitaxy will drive the development and optimisation of epitaxial growth processes for MicroLED technology, overseeing process development, reactor performance, and material quality. This role involves hands-on work and technical leadership while collaborating with integrated manufacturing teams, mentoring junior engineers, and conducting research on industry trends.
