Job description: Location: 42 Cours Pierre Vasseur, 91,120 PALAISEAU, France March 2026 Contract: Full-time (CDI) We are seeking a driven and talented engineer with expertise in semiconductor detector diodes. The role includes developing, optimizing, and deploying our integrated nanodetector R&D program. This role requires hands‑on device development, technical depth, and close collaboration across internal teams. Working under the Detector R&D Manager, you will own the technical execution of detector design projects — from high‑level modeling and design rule definition to wafer‑level validation and performance analysis — driving model‑to‑fab‑to‑test convergence through rigorous DOE campaigns and systematic data analysis. This role establishes the detector design rules and learning loops that underpin NcodiN’s integrated receiver technology, accelerating our path from concept to industrialization. Key Responsibilities 1. Design and Modeling Use and refine in‑house multiphysicsERCIAL tempreeze using iron modelling to design integrated detector stacks covering all design apsects (e.g. absorption, carrier transport, bandwidth). Contribute to the development of high‑level design rules linking geometry, material stacks, process constraints, and performance targets. Design and execute design‑of‑experiment (DOE) strategies to validate hypotheses and accelerate convergence between simulation and experiment. Work with the Material department to specify epitaxial stacks matching the targeted performance specifications. Translate model outcomes into fabrication‑ready design inputs aligned with process constraints and PDK conventions. 2. Characterization and Analysis Design and execute detector characterization campaigns, from test definition to data consolidation. Systematically measure key performance metrics.Maintain structured documentation, traceable measurement baselines, and instrument calibration and uncertainty budgets. 3. Continuous Improvement Contribute to technology watch on detector materials, device concepts, low‑noise front‑ends, and test methodologies. Capture experimental feedback to refine models, design rules, and tool calibration. Extract design insights from DOE campaigns and batch results to improve next‑generation designs. Document design rules, measurement protocols, and model‑to‑fab correlation findings. Profile & Requirements PhD or MSc in Optoelectronics, Photonics, Physics, or Electrical Engineering. More than 5 years experience in semiconductor photodetectors and device physics. Track record of converting model outputs and fab constraints into practical design rules. Understand key performance metrics: responsivity, dark current, NEP, bandwidth, and S‑parameters, linearity, saturation power, junction capacitance and impedance, temperature dependence. Strong data analysis skills and familiarity with DOE methodologies. Effective communicator with experience working across R&D, process, packaging, and test teams. Nice to Have Experience with integrated photonics and silicon photonics receiver chains. Hands‑on experience with EM and semiconductor device simulation and compact modeling for bandwidth and noise. Wafer‑level test structure design and tape‑out experience. Knowledge of Lenin IRAs, impedance matching, high‑speed link requirements. You don’t check all the boxes? Please submit an application anyway, we’ll be happy to consider it. Benefits Comprehensive Health Care Plan Life Insurance Meal vouchers Commuter Benefit (50% refund of public transport pass) Generous Time Off (Vacation, sick & public holidays) Flexible, hybrid workplace model Stock Option Plan Actual pay will be based on several factors including work experience?), location and education. We strongly value a heterogeneous environment to bring perspective, experience and skills to the table, leading to innovation and creativity. #J-18808-Ljbffr
