# Agentic Photonic Design Engineer

Flexcompute is the physics company. We tackle multi-scale, multi-physics problems with simulators that combine numerical methods and AI models. We are GPU-native and support agentic workflows for the fastest path to physics insight. We scale first-principles physics into foundational physics models to eliminate the latency to physical insights. Our platforms help teams design and optimize products from electric aircraft and wind turbines to photonic chips and quantum hardware. Built by engineers from Stanford University and MIT and backed by top VC firms, we are growing fast across aerospace, automotive, semiconductors, photonics, and beyond. About the Role We're looking for an Agentic Photonic Design Engineer to join the PhotonForge team. This is a software development role at the intersection of photonic design automation, EDA integration, and agentic AI. You'll extend our end-to-end platform for photonic integrated circuit (PIC) design, working in Python and navigating a C++ codebase to ship production integrations and AI-native workflows. PhotonForge unifies component simulation, circuit simulation, compact modeling, layout generation, PDK integration, and foundry handoff into
