Applied Materials Senior Optical Packaging Engineer 

United States, California 

418677455

The Optical Packaging Engineer is to lead optical package development from ideation to prototype and production for high performance interconnect project. The job requires providing solutions that are highly creative, and directly contribute to product differentiation. The Optical Packaging Engineer will be responsible to establish package manufacturability and reliability, drive package qualification activities. The Optical Packaging Engineer needs to work closely with fab, assembly, substrate, connector partners, and collaborate with multi-functional teams with in AMAT and define optical package requirements.

Key Responsibilities

• Conceive and design novel concepts for low-loss and low-cost fiber packaging through optical/mechanical design and modeling of photonic chip coupling interfaces
• Simulate the performance of optical assemblies, with a mind towards the interface between PICs and package, as well as manufacturing tolerances.
• Characterize and develop packaging solution, evaluate theoptical/electrical/mechanical/thermalperformance and reliability
• Document and report to internal members and communicate with external vendors and partners

Functional Knowledge
