Valencia, Valencia, España iPRONICS A tiempo completo

Are you ready to help design the photonic circuits powering the next generation of optical networks for AI and data centers?

At iPronics, pioneers in software-defined photonics and creators of the world's first programmable optical switch on silicon, we're looking for a PIC Layout Engineer to join our Photonics Team and play a key role in the design and layout of our next-generation photonic integrated circuits (PICs).

What You'll Do

As a PIC Layout Engineer, you'll be part of a highly collaborative layout and design team, working at the intersection of photonics, electronics, and systems engineering. Your contributions will directly impact the scalability and performance of our programmable optical architectures.

Your main responsibilities will include:

  • Designing and implementing layouts for photonic integrated circuits (PICs) used in large-scale optical circuit switches.
  • Generating and verifying GDS files, ensuring foundry and design rule compliance.
  • Performing Design Rule Checks (DRC) and participating in layout reviews.
  • Ensuring full compatibility between cross-sections, foundry PDKs, and custom-developed photonic components.
  • Developing main and test die GDS layouts, ensuring alignment with tapeout schedules and deadlines.
  • Translating system-level requirements into detailed PIC designs, supported by clear and concise documentation.
  • Collaborating with cross-functional teams to ensure testability, manufacturability, and system integration excellence.

What We're Looking For

Education & Experience

  • BSc/MSc/PhD in Telecommunication Engineering, Physics, or a related discipline with a strong emphasis on Integrated Photonics.
  • 2–3 years of industry experience (PhD graduates are highly encouraged to apply).

Technical Skills

  • Proven experience with photonic design and optimization tools.
  • Strong Python programming skills for automating design and simulation workflows.
  • Solid understanding of GDS layout generation, PDK usage, and DRC verification flows.
  • Fluency in English (written and spoken).

Soft Skills

  • Reliable, proactive, and self-motivated team player.
  • Excellent communication and collaboration abilities.
  • High attention to detail and commitment to quality and precision.

What We Offer

  • Flexible working hours.
  • Private health insurance and pension plan.
  • December 24th and 31st off.
  • A collaborative, innovative, and growth-oriented environment where your designs shape the core of our photonic technology.

Why Join iPronics?

At iPronics, we're redefining the way AI architectures and data centers communicate — creating scalable, low-latency, and energy-efficient optical solutions that bridge hardware, software, and photonics.

Following our €20M Series A funding round, we're expanding our team and our impact. You'll be joining a diverse group of engineers and scientists who are building real-world innovations from sunny Valencia , shaping the future of programmable photonics.

Interested?

If you're passionate about photonic design, precision layout, and building cutting-edge PICs that will transform the data networks of tomorrow — we'd love to hear from you.

And if this sounds like a great fit for someone in your network — please share

Let's design the optical future, together.
