Original job description

About Inpho

Inpho is a fast-growing scale-up, focused on developing cutting-edge optoelectronic solutions for next-generation communications, and photonic systems. Our multidisciplinary team is pushing the boundaries of innovation in integrated photonics and semiconductor packaging.

Inpho’s new class of electro-photonic chips is poised to revolutionize and disrupt the optical interconnect market. Utilizing this new class of chips enables existing optical interconnect systems to be built at much lower cost; new architectures to be deployed that provide significantly higher price/performance; and a whole new generation of higher speed interconnect to be built that to date have been impossible.

About The Role

We are seeking an Engineering Technician to play a key role in supporting engineering activities across product development, testing, manufacturing, and maintenance. This role involves hands-on work with tools, instruments, prototypes, and production equipment. The technician works closely with engineers to execute experiments, validate designs, resolve technical issues, and maintain smooth operational workflows.

Key Responsibilities

Perform testing and validation on components, systems, and prototypes according to engineering specifications.
Collect, analyze, and document data from experiments, inspections, and production processes.
Troubleshoot mechanical, electrical, or software issues and assist in root-cause analysis.
Assemble, install, calibrate, and maintain equipment used in engineering and production environments.
Support design and development activities by building prototypes, wiring assemblies, or mechanical fixtures.
Collaborate with engineers and cross-functional teams to improve product performance and manufacturing efficiency.
Ensure compliance with safety, quality, and regulatory standards during all technical operations.
Maintain inventory of tools, parts, and test equipment and ensure proper calibration and upkeep.

Required Qualifications & Skills

Associate degree in Engineering Technology, Electronics, Mechanical Engineering, or related field (or equivalent experience).
3+ years of hands-on technical skills with mechanical, electrical, or electromechanical systems.
Ability to read and interpret technical drawings, schematics, and specifications.
Proficiency with measurement tools (calipers, multimeters, oscilloscopes, etc.).
Experience with testing procedures, troubleshooting, and root-cause analysis.
Effective communication and teamwork skills.

Preferred Qualifications & Skills

Experience in manufacturing, R&D, or product testing environments.
Familiarity with CAD software or basic drafting.
Knowledge of PLCs, automation systems, or industrial controls.
Understanding of quality systems (ISO, Six Sigma, etc.).

Why Join Inpho?

Be part of a mission-driven startup shaping the future of photonics.
Competitive salary, full health benefits and equity packages, flexible work environment, and career growth opportunities.

Come work with a dynamic, high-talent team to build and commercialize the highest-performance photonics chips in the world!

We provide equal employment opportunities without discrimination based on race, colour, religion, sex, gender identity or expression, sexual orientation, national origin, age, disability, veteran status, or any other characteristic protected by applicable law.
