Full job description

As the global leader in high-speed connectivity, Ciena is committed to a people-first approach. Our teams enjoy a culture focused on prioritizing a flexible work environment that empowers individual growth, well-being, and belonging. We’re a technology company that leads with our humanity—driving our business priorities alongside meaningful social, community, and societal impact.

Ciena’s Photonic Components Assembly Processes group develops and industrializes advanced optical assembly solutions that enable next‑generation photonic products. This role contributes to manufacturing readiness, product quality, and scalable production through ownership of optical assembly processes from development to transfer.

How you will make an impact:

Develop and industrialize optical assembly processes and systems from concept through start‑up and certification
Lead definition of equipment specifications, performance requirements, and integration proposals for optical assembly machinery
Integrate automation and tooling solutions in collaboration with internal engineering teams, suppliers, and contractors
Execute experimental testing in cleanroom environments to evaluate and optimize optical assembly processes and equipment
Oversee equipment installation, site acceptance testing, and transfer to contract manufacturing operations
Own and optimize complete product assembly flows, including active optical alignment and passive optical and mechanical assembly sequences
Analyze assemblies from contract manufacturing partners and identify process improvement opportunities.

The must haves:

Education: Bachelor’s degree in a relevant Engineering field
Experience: 5+ years of experience in a related field
Application of hands‑on problem solving with strong attention to detail
Application of technical, scientific, and experimental problem‑solving methods
Experience programming manufacturing equipment
Application of CAD software in an engineering or manufacturing context
Demonstrated teamwork and professional communication skills
Experience managing projects under tight timelines
Fluency in English and French
Willingness to travel internationally on an occasional basis

Nice to haves:

Background in photonics, optoelectronics, or silicon photonics manufacturing environments, including cleanroom or micro‑assembly exposure
Application of data‑driven process optimization and manufacturing quality methods (e.g., SPC, DOE, FMEA)
Experience working with automation platforms and contract manufacturing partners in high‑precision production settings

Pay ranges at Ciena are designed to accommodate variations in knowledge, skills, experience, market conditions, and locations, reflecting our diverse products, industries, and lines of business. Please note that the pay range information provided in this posting pertains specifically to the primary location, which is the top location listed in case multiple locations are available.
