Photonics Engineer

Cadence Design Systems · Vancouver, British Columbia · $73,500 - $136,500 annually

Verdict

Second Cadence Design Systems posting for a Photonics Engineer, but this one uses the External_Careers Workday path (for experienced hires) rather than the Univ_Careers path. Same employer, same Vancouver/Port Moody location, same ATS. The role NOC is Electrical and electronics engineers (21310) which is arguably more accurate for a photonics engineer than the Software engineers NOC used in the other posting. Both are legitimate; the NOC difference is a WorkBC classification choice.

Salary consistent with published range-5
$73,500–$136,500 matches Cadence's published compensation for BC photonics roles
