Google's XR team is at the forefront of the next major leap-the convergence of AI and XR. This is more than just new devices; it's about reimagining how we interact with the world around us. We're building a future where lightweight XR glasses pair with helpful AI to augment human intelligence, offering personalized, conversational, and contextually aware experiences. By integrating micro-displays, optics, and opto-mechanical modules like cameras and Display Sub-Assemblies (DSAs), our team delivers high-performance and delightful hardware experiences. Google's Raxium display group has established a revolutionary semiconductor materials display technology that enables new functionality in display products, bringing to users a closer and more natural linkage between the digital and physical realms in applications such as augmented reality (AR) and light-field display. With start-up roots and a state-of-the-art compound semiconductor fab in Silicon Valley, Raxium is seeking to build upon its engineering team with an aim to disrupt next-generation display markets.Individual pay is determined by factors including job-related skills, experience, and relevant education or training.US: $188000 - $274000 (USD) + 20% bonus target + equity + benefits\nLearn more about benefits at Google.\nResponsibilities\nDrive system-level integration, comprehensive characterization, and yield optimization for Light Engine Assemblies (LEAs).\nEstablish, align, and maintain technical documentation, including Engineering Requirement Specifications (ERS), Interface Control Documents (ICDs), product datasheets, and test protocols.\nSupport advanced validation and verification (V&V), Design of Experiments (DOEs), and corner characterization across optical, electrical, and thermal domains to resolve complex multi-system interactions.\nDeliver continuous yield improvements using statistical data modeling, failure analysis, root-cause determination, and corrective actions (FA/RC/CA) to create tight feedback loops between manufacturing and design.\nCollaborate cross-functionally with design, test engineering, quality, operations, and manufacturing teams, effectively escalating critical issues as required.\nQualifications\nMinimum qualifications:\nBachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Optical Engineering, Physics, Mechanical Engineering, or equivalent practical experience.\n6 years of experience working in a product engineering role for display or semiconductor products.\n3 years of experience in technical leadership.\nExperience setting product specifications (ERS/ICD), designing characterization experiments (DOE), and defining production binning and calibration strategies.\nPreferred qualifications:\nMaster's degree or PhD in Electrical Engineering, Optical Sciences, Physics, Computer Engineering, or a related field.\n12 years of industry experience specializing in product engineering or module integration for AR/VR displays, optical engines, or high-precision optoelectronic systems.\nDeep technical expertise in electro-optical module integration, encompassing optical, mechanical, semiconductor, quality, reliability, and thermal domains.\nAdvanced proficiency with statistical data modeling and automation tools (JMP, Python, MATLAB, SQL, R) for yield modeling, parametric analysis, and Monte Carlo simulations.\nProven track record of guiding complex NPI optoelectronic modules from initial prototype bring-up to high-volume manufacturing.","description_format":"text","description_chars":3599,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":12,"management_years_min":3,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":{"level":"bachelor","optional":true},"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":["Equity"],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Digital
