About our technology
The semiconductor industry’s growing demand for more powerful chips with higher bandwidth and lower power finds its solution in our technology. We connect chips to high-throughput, low-delay computing networks. The key lies in harnessing the physical properties of graphene to combine electronic computing with photonic communication, allowing countless chips to interact almost as if they were one. Our graphene photonic innovation increases computing power and efficiency to a new order of magnitude
In short, we connect chips to create powerful and energy-efficient networks, overcoming connectivity limitations in the semiconductor industry. We deliver the graphene solution
The Role
As a Graphene Photonics Data Analyst, you will transform complex characterization data into reliable insights that guide device design, process development, and manufacturing decisions. You will own and evolve our analysis software and data infrastructure, develop new methods for emerging experiments, and help scale our analytical capabilities as we transition from R&D to high-volume production.
To join our team, you should be excited to:
Own and continuously improve our characterization analysis software suite
Develop new analysis methods as experiments and measurement capabilities evolve
Build and maintain reliable, scalable data infrastructure
Ensure the integrity, accuracy, and traceability of analysis outputs
Turn raw measurement data into actionable insights for process and design decisions
Extract device parameters from measured data and benchmark results against physical and compact models
Perform statistical process and yield analyses to identify trends, correlations, and outliers across wafers and lots
Correlate characterization results with process parameters, closing the loop between measurement and process control
Integrate analysis outputs with fab MES and data systems to enable real-time process feedback
Define standardized analysis protocols and transition mature R&D code into robust, production-ready tools
Optimize analysis pipelines for throughput and scalability as we move toward high-volume production
