Work In Tech

Social networking, machine learning, and big data analytics demand ever-increasing network connectivity. RANOVUS, with operations in Ottawa, Canada, Nuremberg, Germany, and San Jose, USA, is a solution provider for the next generation data center infrastructures. We aim to deliver advanced technology that minimizes environmental impact through lower power dissipation. Working with world class fabrication partners, RANOVUS is the leader in the application of unique new technologies to fiber-optic communications products for data-centers.

We are seeking a Mechanical Engineer to join our team.

As a successful candidate, you will be working as the Photonic/ASIC Components integrator, working with Photonics, High Speed ASIC, Laser design teams and Ranovus’ CMs to define best in class optimal assembly processes for high volume Optical Engine (Module) manufacturing, targeted for data center applications. In conjunction with the project team, your role will be to support the micro-assembly process development (and manufacturing work instructions) during all phases of the project development (i.e. During NPI & Production Phase). Specifically, you will work on improvement and optimization of Silicon integrated photonic devices manufacturing & assembly processes.
