Job Description

Join our team as we continue to expand our product portfolio into the Data Center and Communications Service Providers. The IP Routing Hardware organization is very flat - there are few levels of management between the Individual Contributor and the VP of Hardware. We are also very lean - each engineer spends more time doing engineering work and less time on overhead. As a result, your work has high visibility, and your decisions directly impact the product we ship.

As an Optical Module Test Engineer in the IP Routing Hardware group, you will be responsible for: the optical and electrical qualification of new optical modules; the integration of optical modules into the product line; the resolution of customer issues. This position requires a self-starter who works well in a hardware lab environment and can operate the latest measurement equipment. You will drive new product introduction by executing tests, analyzing results, and making recommendations.

Responsibilities

  • Build up optical test beds to qualify pluggable optical transceiver modules
  • Plan and execute design verification testing
  • Analyze lab results to determine if optical modules meet vendor specifications
  • Work with Hardware and Software teams, Product Line Management, and Compliance team to meet product requirements
  • Foster constructive and collaborative relationships with external suppliers


Qualifications

  • Minimum B.Sc or B.Eng in Electrical or Computer Engineering or Applied Physics
  • 10+ years of related industry experience
  • Solid experience and knowledge in the integration and qualification of various photonic components, particularly high-speed pluggable optical transceivers
  • Working knowledge of various instruments like bit error rate tester, network traffic analyzer, digital communication analyzer, real time oscilloscope, and optical spectrum analyzer
  • Conversant with IEEE 802.3 standards, OIF implementation agreements, MSA specifications, and NRZ / PAM4 signalling
  • Programming ability in Python is an asset
