Job Summary
Your mission
is building photonic processing systems that compute with light delivering a scalable energy-efficient alternative to transistor-based architectures for next-generation AI and HPC applications.
Turning prototypes into production-ready systems requires more than lab innovation. It demands hands-on assembly robust system integration and rigorous testing to guarantee performance reliability and manufacturability.
As our Senior Production Engineer (m/f/d) your mission is to assemble integrate and validate complex electro-optical and electronic-mechanical systems. You will establish stable test and integration processes optimize workflows and ensure small-series production ramp-up runs smoothly enabling next-generation servers to be delivered on time and at scale.
Your responsibilities
Assemble integrate and test advanced photonic and electronic systems ensuring repeatability quality and performance.
Develop and standardize assembly sequences test protocols and production documentation to enable scalable manufacturing.
Perform hands-on troubleshooting root-cause analysis and system-level debugging to prevent rework yield loss and field failures.
Collaborate with R&D quality supply chain and manufacturing to ensure smooth handover test coverage and integration readiness.
Optimize workstations tooling and end-to-end test sequences to support efficient ramp-up from prototypes to small-series production.
Drive continuous process improvement and quality assurance initiatives including verification workflows structured problem solving and implementation of corrective actions.
Your profile
Bachelors or Masters degree in Electrical Engineering Physics Photonics Optics Microsystems Engineering Mechatronics or a related technical field.
5 years of hands-on experience in system integration testing and verification of complex electro-optical or electronic-mechanical systems.
Strong practical skills in optical and electronic assembly hardware debugging failure analysis and system-level testing (DVT PVT SVT).
Experience documenting test processes verification instructions and quality workflows for reproducible and scalable manufacturing.
Desirable knowledge in high-speed digital and RF fundamentals signal and power integrity as well as basic automation or programming (Python preferred).
Fluent in English; German or another European language is a plus.
Why us
We hire for attitude and train for skills.
We encourage self responsibility and accelerate professional development.
We move fast and encourage experimentation.
You have the opportunity to be part of developing breakthrough photonic computing technology and have a lasting impact on the future of computing.
You can be part of a passionate international highly skilled cross functional team.
You will have access to the founders of the company.
