Intern — WSS & OCS Switching Systems Modelling (m/f/d)

Your mission

We are seeking a Master student to work on modeling and optimization of Wavelength Selective Switch (WSS) systems based on LCOS (Liquid Crystal on Silicon) technology and Optical Circuit Switching (OCS) systems. The student will develop models for inverse design frameworks, and system-level optimization pipelines to improve optical switching performance metrics including insertion loss, crosstalk, passband shape, switching latency, and polarization-dependent loss (PDL).

  • Develop models and inverse design frameworks for LCOS-based WSS optimization, targeting insertion loss minimization, crosstalk suppression, and PDL reduction.
  • Build and refine WSS system-level models (optical path, LCOS switching engine, port architecture), evaluating insertion loss, crosstalk, passband shape, and PDL.
  • Investigate WSS crosstalk suppression strategies through pixel layout design, phase/amplitude apodization, and optimization.
  • Develop models for OCS system-level performance, including switching speed, optical path stability, port-to-port uniformity, and insertion loss characterization.
  • Validate model predictions against experimental measurements and simulation results.

Position requirements:

Optics & Optical Design (Required)

  • Strong foundational knowledge of physical optics, including wave propagation, diffraction, interference, polarization, and beam optics.
  • Understanding of liquid crystal optics and LCOS device operation principles.
  • Understanding of WSS architecture and key performance metrics: insertion loss, crosstalk, bandwidth, PDL, port count, passband shape.
  • Understanding of OCS architecture and key performance metrics: switching speed, port count, insertion loss, crosstalk.
  • Knowledge of metasurface operating principles (phase/amplitude/polarization control via subwavelength structures), unit-cell design, lattice types, and phase-gradient concepts.
  • Ability to perform or interpret simulations (FDTD, RCWA, FEM) of optical structures.

Nice-to-Have (Plus)

  • Experience with LC device modeling (Frank-Oseen theory, director simulation).
  • Knowledge of DWDM systems, ROADM architectures, and telecom optical component design.
  • Familiarity with data center optical interconnects and OCS-based network architectures.
  • Prior work at the intersection of AI and photonics/optics.
  • Familiarity with one or more: inverse design, physics-informed neural networks (PINNs), reinforcement learning, surrogate modeling, or generative models.
  • Experience with multi-objective optimization using AI/ML methods.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
