Systems Optimisation Engineer

A developer of optical network systems is now looking for a Systems Optimisation Engineer to develop intelligent test frameworks and optimisation algorithms for optical network system.

This cross-disciplinary role blends software engineering, algorithm development, and hardware test integration to reduce test time, improve throughput, and enhance performance analysis.

Joining the Optical Network Integration Team, you will collaborate closely with hardware test engineers to refine burst-mode test strategies, optimise equalisation parameters, and accelerate product evaluation from R&D through production.

Experience and Qualifications:

We are looking for a strong proficiency in software development for test automation (Python, C++, or C#).

Experience with metaheuristic optimisation (e.g., GA, simulated annealing, particle swarm).

Experience with AI/ML techniques (e.g., reinforcement learning, predictive modelling) for test optimisation.

You should have a collaborative mindset to work closely with hardware engineers and manufacturing teams.

A familiarity with production test time optimisation in semiconductor or optical device environments, is also required to succeed in this role.

Exposure to cloud-based data pipelines for large-scale test data processing.

As the successful Systems Optimisation Engineer, you should have achieved a Degree in Computer Science, Electrical/Electronic Engineering, Applied Mathematics, or related field.

Additional Information:

Candidates MUST be eligible to work and live in the UK. Copies of Visa and Passport will be requested.

Salary / Benefits:

In addition to a Competitive Salary, my client offers a range of Benefits including Hybrid and Flexible Working, Stock Options, 25 days holiday, and relocation assistance.

Skills:.

Optimisation, Algorithm, Optical Networks, Software, Hardware, Test, Computer Science, Electronic Engineering, Applied Mathematics.
