Full Job Description

About us We see the semiconductor industry as a realm of possibility. We see opportunity. We see the profound impact that our graphene solutions will have in transforming the industry. We invite you to join us in driving change with our fundamentally human-centered approach, uniting bright minds around a shared vision. The vision is: Prove to everybody that you can make a fundamental change. Prove with your knowledge and skills how things can be done differently. Together, we can change the paradigm of how the world connects. About our technology The semiconductor industry’s growing demand for more powerful chips with higher bandwidth and lower power finds its solution in our technology. We connect chips to high-throughput, low-delay computing networks. The key lies in harnessing the physical properties of graphene to combine electronic computing with photonic communication, allowing countless chips to interact almost as if they were one. Our graphene photonic innovation increases computing power and efficiency to a new order of magnitude. In short, we connect chips to create powerful and energy-efficient networks, overcoming connectivity limitations in the semiconductor industry. We deliver the graphene solution. The Role We are looking for a Working Student – Layouting Software Development (m/f/d) to join our Electronic, Photonic & Architecture Design team. In this role, you will support the development of software tools for semiconductor layout generation and contribute to scaling our design infrastructure from research prototypes to production-ready systems by applying modern development and DevOps practices. You will work at the intersection of software engineering and photonics design in a collaborative R&D environment. To join our team, you should be excited to: - Develop Python scripts to generate semiconductor mask layouts and expand our layouting repository - Support the transition of our design tools from academic prototypes to production-ready software -
