Optical Coherent System Engineer

Optical Coherent System Engineer

Join Nokia’s Optical Systems Group (OSG) as a Coherent Optical Systems Engineer. The role focuses on designing, characterizing, and developing leading coherent optical transceivers based on next‑generation photonic integrated circuits (PIC) and digital signal processors (DSP) from Infinera.

Job Description

As an OSG engineer, you will work with early prototype PIC, DSP, and analog ASIC hardware; perform digital‑optical integration; develop robust calibration and controls methodologies; and carry out performance characterization (transceiver SNR, OSNR tolerance, sensitivity studies, etc.). Frequent interactions with DSP, PIC, analog ASIC, and systems engineering teams are expected. A key component is the ability to understand and trade‑off between optical, electrical, and digital capabilities to optimize overall system performance.

How You Will Contribute And What You Will Learn

• Digital‑optical integration of next‑generation coherent optical transceivers
• Development of calibration and controls algorithms to maximize system level performance
• Performance characterization of coherent pluggable transceivers, including detailed experimental validation of sub‑components (analog, controls, DSP ASICs)
• Active member of the cross‑functional product development team involving software, electronics, optics, and test
