The industry is still leaning on a ten-year-old hardware blueprint that has reached its limit. A new paradigm that is faster and more efficient will be the biggest economic opportunity of the next century and create the most important company of the next decade. The OLIX Decode Accelerator 1 (DX-1) is the first accelerator architected specifically for decode. Rack-scale co-design of logic, data movement, packaging, optics and interconnect enables a step change in system level performance.\nThe Role\nAs a Manufacturing Process Engineer at OLIX, you will be responsible for turning our optical interconnect technology for co-packaged optics (CPO) into scalable, manufacturable, and reliable hardware. You will work closely with our development team in London to establish high-throughput, high-yield manufacturing processes, then transfer those processes to our manufacturing partners and support them through ramp.\nThis is a hands-on, high-impact role. The lines you build are how our optical interconnect reaches production. The role involves extensive travel (up to 50% of the time), including to our manufacturing partner sites.\nResponsibilities\nEstablish and qualify robust, high-throughput, high-yield manufacturing lines for our optical interconnect technology\n\nWork with our manufacturing partners to establish high throughput, high yielding manufacturing lines and support those partners through qualification and volume ramp\n\nSpecify, commission and qualify production equipment\n\nDevelop new and improved manufacturing processes, and drive continuous improvement in throughput and yield\n\nImprove process capability through statistical process control\n\nRepresent OLIX to the management, engineering and production teams at our manufacturing partners\n\nCollaborate across R&D, Process Engineering, Equipment Engineering, Characterisation & Test and Production, within OLIX and at our partners, to hit project milestones\n\nContribute to strategic IP development and patents\n\nEnsure compliance with site and factory protocols and safety regulations\n\nSkills & Experience\nBachelor’s degree in Materials Science, Physics, Electrical Engineering, Chemistry or a related field\n\nExperience with process development in high-volume, high-technology manufacturing (e.g. semiconductors, electronics or display technologies), including New Product Introduction (NPI) and scaling to volume\n\nExperience working in controlled or cleanroom environments\n\nProven track record of designing DoEs and executing structured experiments\n\nExperience applying statistical process control, yield improvement and throughput optimisation in production\n\nAbility to interpret complex experimental data, troubleshoot process issues and drive systematic improvements\n\nExcellent teamwork, documentation and communication skills\n\nNice to Have\nExperience transferring processes to contract manufacturers or foundries\n\nFailure analysis experience\n\nPatent or IP contributions\n\nCompensation & Equity\nCompetitive Salary: Commensurate with your experience, skills, and location\n\nEquity & Ownership: Meaningful stock options. You’re not just joining the mission; you’re owning a piece of it\n\nProximity Bonus: We value your time. To minimise your commute and maximise your life, we offer an annual Living-Local Bonus if your residence is within 20 minutes of the office\n\nRetirement Benefits: Employer-contributed retirement plans to help you build long-term financial security\n\nDue to U.S. export control regulations, candidates’ eligibility to work at OLIX depends on their most recent citizenship or permanent residency status. We are generally unable to consider applicants whose most recent citizenship or permanent residence is in certain restricted countries (currently including Iran, North Korea, Syria, Cuba, Russia, Belarus, China, Hong Kong, Macau, and Venezuela). Applicants who have subsequently obtained citizenship or permanent residency in another country not subject to these restrictions may still be eligible.\nWe do not accept unsolicited CVs from recruitment agencies, will not be liable for any fees, and prohibit unauthorised use of our company name in recruitment activities.","description_format":"text","description_chars":4366,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":null,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":{"level":"bachelor","optional":false},"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":["Equity","Retirement plans","Stock options"],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["AI Chips & Accelerators"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-10-26T14:50:28Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":90,"band":"hot","label":"Hiring now","p_open":1,"p_active":0.903,"p_room":1,"age_days":5,"expected_fill_days":89,"reasons":["conf:2","velocity","win:early"],"computed_at":"2026-11-01T06:10:25Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/olix-manufacturing-process-engineer","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/olix-manufacturing-process-engineer.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-11-01T10:36:19Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":16409,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-11-02T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":678679},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=678679"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Folix-manufacturing-process-engineer"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Folix-manufacturing-process-engineer"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Folix-manufacturing-process-engineer"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/olix-manufacturing-process-engineer\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Folix-manufacturing-process-engineer"}],"agent":{"mcp":"https://alion.io/mcp/jobs","mcp_open":"https://alion.io/mcp/open","next":[{"tool":"get_job","arguments":{"id":3276382}},{"tool":"search_jobs","arguments":{"company":"olix.com","detail":"compact"}},{"tool":"match_people","arguments":{"job_id":3276382},"note":"people open to offers who fit this vacancy"}],"note":"The same data through MCP tools: https://alion.io/mcp/open needs no sign-in (compact searches, postings, people); https://alion.io/mcp with an Alion account has everything.
