High Speed Optical Product Development Engineer
TE Connectivity is a global industrial technology leader creating a safer, sustainable, productive, and connected future. The Optical Product Development Engineer will focus on designing and developing next-generation optical connectivity solutions, ensuring signal integrity and manufacturability while collaborating with cross-functional teams.
Responsibilities
- Design co-packaged optics (CPO) or near-packaged optics (NPO) solutions, integrating optical interconnects tightly with high-radix ASIC subsystems to enable ultra-high bandwidth and low-latency data transmission
- Develop passive fiber connectivity solutions like FAU, optical backplane, inside-box fiber cable assembly, ELSFP modules, fiber shuffle, cassettes and fiber termination for CPO/NPO applications
- Conduct end-to-end simulations and modeling to optimize signal integrity, power efficiency, and thermal performance
- Evaluate photonic integration techniques, and semiconductor technologies to maintain a competitive advantage in CPO/NPO innovation
- Validate mechanical designs through simulation and physical testing
- Have mechanical and thermal simulation and solution experience for CPO
- Partner with ASIC, package, board, and photonics engineering teams to ensure CPO/NPO solutions are manufacturable, scalable, and aligned with system architecture requirements
- Work cross-functionally with engineering, product management, sales, and marketing teams to translate technical insights into compelling product offerings
- Design and execute fiber testing protocols including bend testing, pull testing, and environmental testing and validate products across CPO Engine, FAU, optics connectors, ELSFP, Fiber shuffle, optical backplane etc
- Analyze test data and implement design improvements based on findings
- Support customer validation and qualification processes
Skills
- Generally requires Bachelors degree in appropriate field or local equivalent
- Using best practices and knowledge of internal or external business issues to support a single product, service or process
- Providing technical support in designing advanced solutions to continuously improve system performance
- Assisting senior engineers and designers to engineer effective manufacturing processes/technology while preserving product design functionality
- Helping identify potential improvement areas and develop associated solutions
