Senior Engineer - Photonics Design TLNT1_NI

About the job: We are seeking a highly motivated Photonics Design Engineer to join AMIC's Nanotech & Photonics team. The successful candidate will contribute to the design, simulation and development of cutting-edge photonic systems for industrial and research applications. This role will support industrial R&D projects, collaborative innovation programmes and capability-building activities as AMIC expands its photonics design offerings. Working with partners across industry, academia and national technology centres, the engineer will help deliver applied projects in areas including photonic integrated circuits (PICs), free-space optical systems, and advanced photonic component modelling. The role will also support training activities, including the development of AMIC's Photonics Academy and Innovation Hub initiatives. About the person: The successful candidate must have, and your application should clearly demonstrate that you meet the following essential criteria: Honours degree (or equivalent) in physics, photonics, semiconductors, optical engineering or a related discipline. Consideration may be given to candidates without a degree but with substantial relevant industrial experience in a similar photonics design role. Demonstrable experience in photonics, optics or PIC design gained through industry, research or advanced academic work. Understanding of electromagnetic modelling principles relevant to integrated photonics and/or free-space optics. Experience using at least one photonic simulation environment (e.g., Lumerical, COMSOL, CST, Zemax, RSoft). Evidence of delivering high-quality technical outputs, design studies or simulation-based investigations. To be successful at shortlisting stage, please ensure you clearly evidence in your application how you meet the essential and, where applicable, desirable criteria listed in the Candidate Information. document on our website.
