Rethinking the limits of AI, Lightmatter merges photonics and computing to build a future where speed, efficiency, and intelligence converge. Backed by GV.
About the role
If you're passionate about tackling complex challenges, making an impact, and being an expert in your craft, join our team of brilliant scientists, engineers, and accomplished industry leaders.
What they're looking for
- Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering or related field
- 8+ years of experience in hardware test software, ATE systems, or test architecture, ideally in semiconductor or photonics
- Track record of owning test software architecture for a product line, including decisions on how the framework scales across projects and teams
- History of mentoring engineers and driving cross-functional technical decisions with hardware, characterization, and manufacturing teams
- Can articulate, end to end, how they scoped, planned, implemented, and validated an automation project
- Comfortable working at the hardware/software boundary — reading and reasoning about embedded software (C/C++), controls, or firmware well enough to co-develop directly with the engineers who own it
More about this role
Lightmatter is leading the revolution in AI data center infrastructure, enabling the next giant leaps in human progress. The company invented the world’s first 3D-stacked photonics engine, Passage™, capable of connecting thousands to millions of processors at the speed of light in extreme-scale data centers for the most advanced AI and HPC workloads.
Lightmatter raised $400 million in its Series D round, reaching a valuation of $4.4 billion. We will continue to accelerate the development of data center photonics and grow every department at Lightmatter!

Lightmatter is (re)inventing the future of computing with light!
Product Engineering builds the software that brings up, characterizes, and qualifies Lightmatter's photonic chips on real hardware — from bench-top bring-up through production test on automated test equipment (ATE). You'll write the code that drives instruments, testers, wafer probers, and lab automation to bring a chip to life and prove it works. Test software infrastructure...
