Job description

Company Overview:
Headquartered in Lowell, Massachusetts, MACOM is certified to the ISO9001 international quality standard and ISO14001 environmental management standard. MACOM has multiple design centers, Si, GaAs and InP fabrication, manufacturing, assembly and test, and operational facilities throughout North America, Europe, Asia and Australia. In addition, MACOM offers foundry services that represents a key core competency within our business. The foundry provides access to, and control of our broad range of proprietary technologies in an asset light, cost effective structure.
MACOM sells and distributes products globally via a sales channel comprised of a direct field sales force, authorized sales representatives and leading industry distributors. Our sales team is trained across all of our products to give our customers insights into our entire portfolio.
Our global organization of skilled engineers is driven every day to solve the world's most demanding wireless and wireline application challenges. We're proud of our more than sixty years' of hands-on experience designing and building analog semiconductor technology across the RF to Light spectrum.
Role: Optoelectronic Device Reliability Engineer - Principal/SPE
Job Description:
We are seeking a highly experienced and technically recognized Principal Optoelectronic Device Reliability Engineer to lead reliability engineering and product qualification activities for our portfolio of III-V InP based laser diodes and photodetectors. This role is responsible for defining reliability strategies, driving qualification programs, and ensuring robust, long-term performance of products across diverse applications. The ideal candidate is a subject-matter expert in optoelectronic device reliability with a strong understanding of physics-of-failure, industry standard, and advanced failure analysis techniques, and the ability to influence cross-functional teams across the product lifecycle.
Responsibilities:
  • Define and lead reliability and qualification strategies for optoelectronic devices (including laser diodes and photodetectors) from development through production.
  • Generate and approve qualification plans in accordance with JEDEC, Telcordia, MIL-STD, GR-468, and customer-specific requirements.
  • Apply physics-of-failure principles to assess and mitigate reliability risks in III-V optoelectronic materials and devices. Perform FMEA,
  • FMECA, and failure-rate prediction activities throughout the product lifecycle.
  • Manage new product qualification programs as well as ongoing reliability monitoring of released products.
  • Perform and review advanced failure analysis (FA) using techniques such as SEM, FIB cross-sectioning, X-ray, IR imaging, EDS, and optical/electrical characterization.
  • Analyze degradation mechanisms specific to laser diodes (e.g., catastrophic optical damage, gradual aging, facet degradation) and photodetectors (e.g., dark current increase, responsivity loss, packaging-induced failures).
  • Perform advanced statistical analysis of life-test and qualification data; generate clear, data-driven technical reports and presentations.
  • Work closely with design engineering, product engineering, manufacturing, corporate quality, and FA teams to drive robust designs and corrective actions.
  • Stay current with evolving optoelectronic reliability standards, test methodologies, and industry best practices.

Job Requirements/Qualifications:
  • Strong understanding of III-V InP based laser diode and photodetector reliability, including device physics, degradation mechanisms and test methodologies.
  • Excellent familiarity with JEDEC, GR-468, MIL-STD, Telcordia, and related qualification standards for optical and optoelectronic devices.
  • Solid knowledge of optoelectronic device fabrication, assembly, inspection and test processes.
  • Advanced experience with failure analysis techniques and tools applied to semiconductor and optoelectronic devices. Proven hands-on experience with environmental and accelerated stress testing, such as HTOL, burn-in, temperature cycling, damp heat, thermal/mechanical shock, vibration.
  • Exceptional analytical, problem-solving, and data-interpretation skills.
  • Self-motivated, well-organized, and execution-focused, with a passion for technical excellence.

Minimum Requirements:
  • Master's or Ph.D. degree in Engineering, Physics, Materials Science, or a closely related technical field.
  • 10+ years of experience in reliability engineering for optoelectronic devices, with demonstrated leadership at the product or technology level.
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills, with experience presenting to technical and executive audiences.

The Salary Range for this position is $98,000 - $200,000. Actual salary offered to candidate will depend on several factors, including but not limited to, work location, relevant candidates' experience, education, and specific knowledge, skills, and abilities.
This position is eligible to receive restricted stock unit (RSU) awards and cash bonuses, solely at MACOM's discretion, subject to individual and company performance.
Benefits: This position offers a comprehensive benefits package including but not limited to:
  • Health, dental, and vision insurance.
  • Employer-sponsored 401(k) plan.
  • Paid time off.
  • Professional development opportunities.
  • Free access to Gym in Lowell and Milpitas locations
