Top Tech Jobs & Startup Jobs

Develops automated hardware and software test solutions for photonic integrated circuits and subassemblies. Responsibilities include designing validation plans, characterizing semiconductor optoelectronic devices, controlling instruments and data acquisition, qualifying production test stations, applying Gage R&R and SPC, documenting solutions, and tracking project milestones. The role requires collaboration across engineering teams and troubleshooting of complex test systems.

Leads sourcing, development, qualification, deployment, and sustaining engineering for automated assembly and test equipment used in photonic integrated circuit manufacturing. Owns equipment performance, uptime, maintenance, capacity, vendor relationships, documentation, and compliance. Partners with process, packaging, and R&D teams to support scalable high-volume production, troubleshoot line-down events, reduce variation using SPC and DOE, and optimize equipment efficiency, cost, and reliability.

Designs and executes automated tests for optical networking products within an Agile R&D team. Responsibilities include integrating Python and pytest automation into CI/CD pipelines, refining requirements and acceptance criteria, identifying risks, applying AI-assisted testing techniques, analyzing failures, optimizing coverage, and continuously improving QA strategies and frameworks.

Designs and executes automated Python tests for Nokia optical communication products, including system- and solution-level compatibility testing with third-party equipment. Creates test plans, analyzes defects, reports execution results, maintains scripts and documentation in Git, and collaborates with global software teams in an Agile environment.

Lead validation and interoperability testing for coherent optical module firmware. Develop Python-based automated tests, analyze reports and firmware defects, reproduce customer issues, support optical system integration testing in the Ottawa lab, and collaborate with firmware, hardware, and optical teams. Drive AI/ML-enabled testing improvements, configure optical test equipment, document procedures, and improve validation workflows for CMIS-compliant 400G/800G modules.

Drive design for manufacturability and product quality during new product development. Define DFM targets, conduct process capability studies, develop control plans, lead root-cause and corrective-action activities, and support APQP, product launches, production ramp-up, and continuous improvement. Analyze quality and production data, ensure quality-system compliance, create assembly and packaging documentation, evaluate design value, and collaborate with engineering and manufacturing teams. The role requires expertise in mechanical and electronics manufacturing processes, GD&T, and automotive-quality methodologies, with up to 20% travel.

Designs and develops high-performance hardware, leading board design, testing, debugging, and system integration. Collaborates with software and product teams, documents specifications and test plans, ensures quality and regulatory compliance, estimates development work, and mentors junior engineers. The role requires hands-on laboratory experience, EDA tool proficiency, strong hardware design knowledge, and the ability to manage multiple projects independently.

Develop and execute manual and automated test strategies for optical networking systems across DWDM, OTN, Ethernet, NBI interfaces, and system security. Create test plans, automation frameworks, and protocol-based test scenarios; support continuous integration and testing; qualify operating systems and containerized microservices; track defects; and collaborate with cross-functional teams to deliver reliable products.

Design and execute manual and automated test strategies and frameworks for optical systems (DWDM, OTN, Ethernet). Test NBI interfaces (YANG, NETCONF, RESTCONF, gRPC), FCAPS, and system security. Drive CI-based test automation, qualify OS releases (microservices/container architectures), collaborate with cross-functional teams, and own product qualification deliverables to ensure reliable, high-quality releases.

Leads new product introduction programs for optical transport solutions across multiple Nokia sites, products, and releases. Coordinates hardware, software, systems engineering, testing, manufacturing, architecture, support, and product teams. Manages plans, budgets, schedules, metrics, change control, quality, risks, executive communications, and issue resolution while driving cross-functional alignment and continuous process improvement.
