About Lumafield:
Founded in 2019 Lumafield has developed the worlds first accessible X-Ray CT scanner for engineers. Our easy-to-use scanner and cloud-based software give engineers the ability to see their work clearly inside and out at an extremely affordable price.
Engineers make million-dollar decisions every day and they need tools that give them the greatest possible insight into their products. By offering unprecedented visibility into products as well as AI-driven tools that highlight problems and generate quantitative data Lumafield promises to revolutionize the way complex products are created manufactured and used across industries.
We are an impact driven company obsessed with providing the best value to our customers keeping their needs at the center of our evolution. Our team today includes world-class researchers and industrial designers PhDs creators founders of successful startups and zero egos. We are backed by top venture capital funds like Kleiner Perkins Lux Capital DCVC Spark Capital and others.
The company is headquartered in Cambridge MA and has an office in San Francisco CA.
About the Role:
The Hardware Group is looking for a Hardware Systems Engineer to join our San Francisco office and own the breadth of hardware development for a new class of industrial CT scanners. Youll span electrical architecture and design MCU firmware and system integration partnering tightly with other engineering and product teams to bring prototypes from concept through to shipping product.
This is a hands-on highly interdisciplinary role. You will be the hardware generalist closest to the product in San Francisco collaborating with our team in Cambridge to carry system-level decisions all the way down to boards firmware and integrated prototypes. Youll work alongside a small fast-moving team that values curiosity rigor and system-level thinking.
This is a full-time in-person role based in our San Francisco CA office.
What youll do:
Drive the system architecture. Translate product-level requirements into a clear split across mechanical electrical and firmware and make the buy-vs-build calls on the components that matter.
Select and qualify the critical parts (motors sensors actuators motion controllers power supplies) and own the rationale and tradeoffs.
Handle the light CAD yourself: MCAD for brackets mounts and fixtures; ECAD for embedded platforms and smaller PCBAs.
Build the prototypes. Turn a wrench pull cables bring up boards and bring a pile of parts up to a working integrated system.
Write drivers for the peripherals you pull onto the product and land them in the appliance firmware and application stack with the Systems Software team.
Own test and validation. Plan it fixture it run it analyze the data and push corrective actions back into the design.
About you:
Several years of hands-on experience taking a complex electro-mechanical or robotics product from blank page to working hardware.
Breadth of knowledge in mechanical design electronics and embedded code. You dont need to be the best in the room at any of the three but youve done all three on real products.
Comfortable enough in MCAD and ECAD to produce your own simple designs without handing them off to a specialist.
A tinkerer at heart - you chase ambiguity into the hardware and keep digging until you understand why a system behaves the way it does.
Bonus points for:
Background in motion control closed-loop systems or sensor fusion.
Shipped a hardware product from first prototype to production at volume.
Experience with X-ray systems or other radiation-emitting equipment.
