Photonics Layout Engineer (Onsite/Hybrid)
Photonics Layout Engineer (Onsite/Hybrid)
About us:
Voyant Photonics is bushing the boundaries of silicon photonic chips that steer and switch light at high speed. They power next generation, chip-scale FMCW LiDAR for robotics and autonomy, and optical circuit switches (OCS) for AI data centers. Based in NYC, we’re a hands-on team designing, building, and deploying frontier hardware to solve problems that matter, from how machines see to how AI scales.
Why Join Us?
At Voyant, you'll help develop some of the most sophisticated silicon photonic chips, spanning two applications: optical circuit switching for AI data centers and chip-scale LiDAR sensing.
You'll tackle challenging problems in large-scale photonic integration, including dense waveguide routing, multilayer photonic layouts, and complex die- and reticle-level floorplanning. Our PICs integrate hundreds to thousands of optical components, requiring innovative layout approaches that balance optical performance, chip dimensions, and manufacturability.
As a Photonic Layout Engineer, you'll take ownership of PIC layouts from initial floorplanning through tapeout. You'll have the opportunity to develop automated layout methodologies, solve complex routing challeng
