PIC Layout Engineer

We are seeking a talented Layout Engineer specialising in integrated photonics to join a great team in France. You will play a key role in designing and optimizing photonic integrated circuit (PIC) layouts for advanced optical applications.

Key responsibilities:

• Design and validate layouts for photonic devices and integrated circuits
• Translate schematics into manufacturable, high-performance layouts
• Ensure compliance with fabrication design rules and process constraints
• Perform DRC/LVS checks and support tape-out activities
• Collaborate with multidisciplinary teams across design and manufacturing
• Optimise layouts for efficiency, yield, and scalability

Requirements:

• Proven experience in layout design (photonics, semiconductor, or related fields)
• Hands-on experience with GDSII workflows and tools such as GDSFactory
• Proficiency with CAD and layout automation tools (e.g. Python-based design flows)
• Understanding of fabrication processes and design rule checking (DRC)
• Strong analytical skills and attention to detail
• Fluency in English; French is a plus
