At-Home health monitoring with silicon photonic chips for data centers. Backed by Y Combinator.
About the role
You will be hands on building and testing the first of its kind home testing system. This is a hands-on bench role for someone who likes taking things apart to find out why they misbehave. You'll work directly with mechanical, electrical, optical, and software engineers, and you'll be the person who finds out what actually happens when all of it is assembled into one box.
What they're looking for
- A technical degree in engineering or a physical science, or equivalent hands-on experience
- Solid troubleshooting instincts: forming a hypothesis, isolating a variable, testing it
- Genuine comfort with hand tools, benchtop instruments, and soldering
- Ability to read schematics, wiring diagrams, and mechanical drawings
- Clear technical writing. A large part of this job is making your work legible to other people
- Data literacy. Able to use Python to contribute to the data analysis

- Assemble instruments and subassemblies using hand tools and benchtop equipment
- Run system-level tests and bring-up on new builds
- Design and write test procedures, then improve them as you learn where they fall short
- Analyze test data and report what it means, not just what it says
- Troubleshoot failures down to root cause, pulling in the right subject matter expert when a problem crosses into...
