(Senior) PIC Design Engineer - Architecture & Fiber Coupling (f/m/d)

Your mission

The future of AI computing builds on light. Q.ANT is building photonic processing systems that compute with light - delivering a scalable, energy-efficient alternative to transistor-based architectures for next-generation AI and HPC applications. Q.ANT’s photonic integrated circuits are at the heart of this technology.

You will drive the design, development, and optimisation of advanced PIC components - with a particular focus on state-of-the-art fiber-to-chip coupling and photonic packaging - driving solutions from initial concept through layout, fabrication, and production-ready integration.

As a technical lead for specific PIC components, you will drive innovation across the full photonic integration lifecycle, define design methodologies, and coordinate cross-functional teams from concept to production. Your expertise in fiber-to-chip coupling and packaging will directly distinguish Q.ANT’s photonic solutions and shape the company’s technology ...
