Who We Are:
Elenion Technologies is driving innovation in silicon
photonics, an emerging technology poised to significantly increase performance and
reduce costs of optical systems. We are headquartered in New York City, with
offices in San Jose, California and Munich, Germany.
After pursuing a path of intensely focused research and
development for two years in stealth-mode, Elenion recently unveiled itself to
the world and has assembled a world-class team of multi-disciplinary experts. Members
of our leadership team have built and sold several companies, published papers
in the top scientific journals in the world, raised hundreds of millions of
dollars of venture capital, and have built products and deployed them to the
market. The technical team includes world
leaders in our space, and many members are PhD scientists and engineers from
the top schools in the world, such as MIT, Caltech, UChicago, and Columbia.
Elenion is developing
next-generation photonic integrated circuit technologies and solutions for a
broad range of datacom and telecom applications. It is almost certain that, as
you read this web page, the data traveling from the server to your computer or
phone went through hardware that someone on our team designed, built, or deployed.
This team builds the hardware at the heart of
the internet. We think that’s cool. Hopefully, you do too.
The Position:
We will be designing and developing complex silicon photonic
and III-V semiconductor-based integrated circuits. We are searching for a Senior Semiconductor Laser Design Engineer who will be responsible for
designing lasers and associated optical integrated circuits. This position
could be based in the Bay Area or New York City.
Our ideal candidate is highly analytical and independent. Of
particular importance to us are the ability and desire to learn, and the drive
to work very hard with similarly motivated people.
Key Responsibilities:
·
Design III-V semiconductor based active
opto-electronic devices
·
Develop models to simulate behaviour of III-V
lasers and integrated circuits
