Top Tech Jobs & Startup Jobs

Lead cross-functional NPI execution for complex hardware programs, from engineering prototypes through scalable production. Own build schedules, milestones, dependencies, configuration records, BOM and tooling readiness, material tracking, inspection preparation, and risk mitigation. Coordinate engineering, supply chain, process development, quality, and operations teams while reporting program status and protecting production timelines. The role requires deep knowledge of hardware development, manufacturing engineering, process development, systems engineering, testing, optics/photonics, and system integration.

The Optical Engineer Level 2 will execute complex engineering tasks, mentor junior engineers, and support optical design and modeling efforts in a startup environment.

Design, develop, and maintain C++ software and Qt-based GUIs for instrument communication and hardware interaction. Build reliable components, write Google Test unit tests, use CMake and Git, debug and optimize applications, collaborate with firmware/hardware teams, conduct code reviews, and produce clear documentation while operating in an agile startup environment.

Build and maintain robotics software for motion and trajectory planning, kinematics, controls, world modeling, device integration, and multi-robot coordination. Develop collision-free plans for physical robotic manipulators, contribute to learning-based methods and simulation, and validate systems through testing. Collaborate with hardware and process engineers, mentor teammates, review code, document systems, and ensure safe, reliable operation on real hardware.

Lead integration and testing of quantum light engines, integrating mechanical, electrical, and photonics assemblies into server rack systems. Manage cabling, materials readiness, hardware intake and kitting processes, risk tracking, and project execution. Set up reliability tests involving lasers and photonic components, and build scalable test infrastructure. Collaborate across mechanical, electrical, software, firmware, operations, and project engineering teams.

Design, implement, and verify FPGA/embedded firmware and hybrid SoC architectures. Develop interfaces to ADCs/DACs and microcontrollers, perform mixed-signal bring-up and verification, collaborate cross-functionally, maintain documentation, participate in code reviews, and follow firmware best practices in an agile startup environment.

The Principal Firmware Engineer will design FPGA-based solutions, mentor junior engineers, manage project scopes, and collaborate across teams to enhance embedded systems.

Manages a team of five software engineers while overseeing staffing, execution, technical quality, engineering processes, risk tracking, and delivery. The role includes mentoring and career development, recruiting, code reviews, CI/CD and tooling improvements, agile planning, stakeholder reporting, and cross-functional coordination with hardware, firmware, product, and program teams. The manager ensures software delivery remains aligned with product schedules and maintains clear documentation, quality standards, and predictable execution.

Develop and lead robotics software for motion and trajectory planning, kinematics, robot control, world modeling, and hardware integration. Build collision-free planning systems, real-time driver layers, validation suites, and learning-based robotics capabilities. Set technical direction, mentor engineers, collaborate with hardware and process teams, and ensure reliable, safe operation on physical robots.

Leads the architecture, roadmap, and hands-on development of fleet management, robotics data management, orchestration, control, and MES software. Serves as the team’s senior technical authority, making system design decisions, resolving complex engineering challenges, mentoring engineers, driving coding and architecture standards, managing technical risk, and collaborating across robotics, firmware, hardware, and software teams.
