Lightium’s Post

Scaling photonics isn’t just about better devices. It’s about building the team that can take them to volume. On August 1st, Lightium expanded its management team with Jens Hofrichter, PhD, PMP, who joined Lightium as VP of Engineering to lead our growing R&D team and drive the maturity and robustness of our TFLN platform. With 15+ years of experience at Liom, ams AG, and IBM, Jens has strengthened photonic technologies in both agile startup settings and high-volume manufacturing environments. That mix is exactly what’s needed as we make our 200 mm platform ready for high-performance, robust, and secure manufacturing. Welcome aboard, Jens. Let’s build it right. #IntegratedPhotonics #TFLN #ScalingDeepTech #Lightium
