Full job description

As the global leader in high-speed connectivity, Ciena builds the critical infrastructure powering the AI era. We’re a technology company shaping the future of networking, guided by innovation, integrity, and collaboration. Through development opportunities, meaningful work, and flexibility, Ciena supports growth and well-being—on and off the job. Connect with a career that matters.


The Opportunity:
Work term of 4 months starting in Spetember/October 2026.
The WaveLogic™ family of products is a cornerstone of Ciena’s optical fiber transmission solutions and a key contributor to the company’s leadership in the global telecommunications industry. This opportunity provides hands-on exposure to advanced high-speed analog and mixed-signal circuit design within a team that has contributed to more than three decades of innovation in broadband fiber-optic modems. The role offers the opportunity to contribute to next-generation high-speed circuit development in a collaborative engineering environment.
How you will make an impact:
  • Contribute to layout feasibility studies in partnership with senior analog designers, evaluating design trade-offs and layout strategies for high-speed circuits
  • Develop custom layouts for advanced analog and mixed-signal blocks, following structured methodologies for floorplanning, placement, and routing
  • Execute comprehensive physical verification, including design rule checks (DRC), layout versus schematic (LVS), electromigration (EM), and infrared (IR) drop analysis to ensure layout quality and reliability
  • Explore new layout tool features, flows, and processes to enhance efficiency and productivity
  • Collaborate closely with circuit designers and layout engineers to identify and resolve layout-related risks early in the design cycle
  • Provide clear status updates and participate in team meetings, design discussions, and knowledge-sharing activities

The must haves:
  • Education: Actively enrolled in a degree program in Electrical Engineering or a related field,
  • Hands-on experience with custom analog and mixed-signal layout design in deep sub-micron complementary metal-oxide semiconductor (CMOS) technologies
  • Strong understanding of layout techniques, including floorplanning, device matching, parasitic minimization, shielding, electromigration, and IR drop considerations
  • Experience creating custom layouts for analog or mixed-signal blocks such as operational amplifiers or current mirrors
  • Familiarity with semiconductor manufacturing processes and foundry design rules
  • Experience using industry-standard layout tools such as Cadence Virtuoso and Siemens Calibre
  • Ability to interpret and debug DRC and LVS reports effectively

Nice to haves:
  • Exposure to high-speed data converter or phase-locked loop (PLL) layout design
  • Familiarity with bipolar CMOS (BiCMOS) technologies
  • Scripting experience using PERL or SKILL to support layout automation or productivity improvements
  • Experience collaborating in cross-functional hardware design teams
  • Strong analytical skills with the ability to proactively identify layout-sensitive circuit structures

Pay Range: The hourly pay rate for this position is $25.50 – $35.00

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.
