Director of Test - Silicon Photonics

Requirements

• Specialized Technical Skills
• Deep, hands-on experience with commercial wafer-scale probe stations (e.g., Cascade/FormFactor, MPI, or equivalent) - this is a core requirement. Candidates must have direct, personal experience operating, configuring, and maintaining SiPh wafer-level probe systems.
• Hands-on experience automating test setups using Python (preferred), MATLAB, LabVIEW, or C#, and strong proficiency with data analysis tools such as JMP or DataConductor.
• Strong experience in system level test plan definition and execution, preferably for transceiver products involving systems with DSP/TIA/Driver with PICs, and high-speed (56 Gbps+/lane) measurement such as BER testing, eye-diagram analysis, and S-parameter characterization.
• Knowledge of integrated photonics and ray-tracing optics and design is a plus.
• Leadership & Management
• Demonstrated experience managing and growing technical engineering teams in a semiconductor or photonics environment, with the ability to balance hands-on execution with strategic leadership.
• Expected Base Pay Range (USD)
• 195,180 - 292,400, $ per annum
• The successful candidate's starting base pay will be determined based on job-related skills, experience, qualifications, work location and market conditions. The expected base pay range for this role may be modified based on market conditions.
• Additional Compensation and Benefit Elements
• All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, national origin, sexual orientation, gender identity, disability or protected veteran status.
• Any applicant who requires a reasonable accommodation during the selection process should contact Marvell HR
