Responsibilities:
Design, simulate, modify, and test optical communications subsystems
Design, simulate, modify, and test RF Photonic subsystems
Select components and equipment based on analysis of program requirements
Support internal and external design reviews in photonic systems
Support Integrated Product Teams (IPTs) to meet development milestones
Qualifications:
Bachelor’s Degree in Physics/Optics/Optical Engineering, quantum science and minimum 6 years of prior relevant experience. Graduate Degree and a minimum of 4 years of prior related experience. In lieu of a degree, minimum of 10 years of prior related experience.
Ability to obtain a U.S. security clearance
3+ years experience modeling and or designing photonics systems
Experience generating technical data for business proposals
1+ years of experience developing prototype optical systems
1+ years of experience leading a product development team
Preferred Skills:
Experience in the design, modeling, development, and testing of quantum sensors, and in particular Rydberg electric field sensors
Experience/capability in quantum physics applicable to the development of quantum technologies, including but not limited to, quantum sensing, quantum time distribution, entanglement, and entanglement distribution
Experience/capability in atomic, molecular, and optical (AMO) physics theory
Digital Lightwave Communications: Physical layer systems, components (EDFA, Modulators, SFPs, Switches, etc.) and modules for optical communication systems
Coherent RF Photonics: Transport and processing of analog signals (radar, wireless communications, etc.) on optical systems
Photonic Integrated Circuits: Improving Size Weight and Power (SWaP) for photonics systems utilizing photonic integrated circuits
Optical multi-input multi-output (MIMO) digital signal processing (DSP): Improving optical system throughput and bit error rate (BER) using post processing techniques
Photonic Modeling: Ability to model photonic systems using one or more of the following software packages: MATLAB, OptSim, BeamProp, Zemax, HFSS
Experience with product development for government contracts
Clearance: TS/SCI with poly preferred
