Experience
Staff Integrated Photonics Engineer
Mar 2025 — Present · San Francisco, CA, US
Lead design, modeling, and layout efforts for active and passive photonic devices, applying DFM/DFT/DFR principles to ensure manufacturability and consistent device performance. Driving cross-functional PIC optimization by collaborating closely with process, test, packaging, and module engineering teams — leveraging data analytics to inform design iterations and root cause analysis. Oversee risk assessments (DFMEA, PFMEA) and qualification plans to improve product robustness and production consistency. Spearheading strategic design-for-manufacturing improvements that increased yield and reduced rework cycles across several photonics products. Developed and deployed an ML-based yield and performance forecasting model that significantly improved test efficiency, drove substantial cost reductions, and received executive recognition for its strategic impact on manufacturing operations.
