Top Tech Jobs & Startup Jobs in Charlotte, NC

Lead development, characterization, qualification and transfer of high-volume optoelectronic assembly processes. Design and run DOE, perform FMEA/RCCA, specify/procure equipment, design tooling, document processes, train technicians, and ensure successful manufacturing transfer and equipment maintenance.

Develop, characterize, qualify, and transfer assembly manufacturing processes to production. Design and run DOE, perform FMEA and root-cause analysis, design tooling/fixtures, document processes, train technicians, and oversee equipment procurement, calibration, and maintenance for high-volume optoelectronic assembly.

Maintain and improve uptime of wafer-fabrication equipment (wet etch, plasma etchers, metal deposition). Install, qualify, repair, and sustain tools; write procedures, troubleshoot root causes, train staff, manage preventive maintenance, and support audits and inventory.

Support NPI and sustaining engineering for routing hardware by managing product data, change control (ECO/MCO/Stop Orders), and BOM health. Develop custom queries, adapt SQL/Sequel for evolving product structures, implement data models, and create PLM workflows while coordinating across hardware, software, and product line management.

Simulate and analyze ultra-high-speed PCB channels (112G+ SerDes), provide SI guidance to digital hardware designers, perform TDR/VNA and oscilloscope measurements, document results, and implement signal integrity best practices across cross-functional teams.

Lead reliability engineering for Silicon Photonics hardware: define and validate reliability models, perform MTBF/MTBCF predictions, analyze field data, direct verification testing and root-cause analysis, drive corrective actions, and mentor cross-functional teams to improve product reliability.

Designs and develops silicon photonics integrated circuits, managing the entire development process, including testing and analysis for cutting-edge photonic devices and systems-on-chip.

Lead standardization strategy for optical transport and Ethernet technologies, develop and advocate contributions to standards bodies (ITU‑T, IEEE, OIF, OpenROADM), coordinate with PLMs and R&D, report progress internally, provide technical influence and guidance, and represent Nokia at standards meetings and industry events.

Senior individual contributor leading development, optimization, and transfer of InP PIC and laser fabrication processes for high-volume manufacturing. Responsibilities include epitaxial design, process flow development, process integration, SPC and statistical analysis, FMEA and root-cause work, metrology strategy, fab execution with remote partners, cross-functional collaboration, and mentoring.

Drive reliability qualification and production monitoring for optical communication products. Track and analyze reliability stress tests, investigate failures with cross-functional teams, implement corrective actions, maintain dashboards and reports, support NPI, and apply statistical and AI tools to generate reliability insights and improve product quality.
