Job Description:
Device Simulation and Design Engineer
£70,000 per annum
A global technology leader is expanding their R&D capability and seeking a Device Simulation and Design Engineer to join their team in Ipswich. This is a brand-new opportunity to shape and develop next-generation III-V photonic devices through cutting-edge simulation, design, and automation techniques.
As part of a world-class team of engineers, you’ll develop and refine optical simulation tools, create scalable and automated design flows, and use your deep understanding of optoelectronic device physics to deliver high-performance components ready for fabrication and experimental testing.
Key Responsibilities
* Develop advanced simulation tools for III-V photonic devices using techniques including FDTD, FEM, machine learning, and inverse design.
* Contribute to the design and development of both active and passive components.
* Automate simulation workflows and data analysis to optimise design iterations.
* Benchmark, document, and deliver tools for internal use across design teams.
* Collaborate with fabrication and test teams to ensure seamless end-to-end development.
* Analyse experimental test results to calibrate and improve model accuracy.
* Produce technical reports and present findings to stakeholders.
About You
You’ll bring a proven background in optoelectronic design, a passion for innovation, and a collaborative mindset.
* PhD in Physics, Electronic Engineering, or a related field.
* Minimum 5 years’ experience in photonics, with strong III-V device simulation expertise.
* Hands-on knowledge of tools such as COMSOL, VPI, FDTD, FEM, and multiphysics simulation environments.
* Proficient in Python or similar for automation, modelling and analysis.
* Experience with machine learning or inverse design methods.
* Strong data analysis and communication skills, including technical reporting.
* Familiarity with characterisation and test of photonic devices.
* Experience in the design of lasers, modulators, waveguides and couplers.
* A track record of publications or conference participation.
