Lumafield was founded in 2019 to upgrade manufacturing.
We are engineers with deep experience across the product development cycle from initial ideas to shipping hardware across industries and specializations who became frustrated by the cost and complexity of modern manufacturing. So we decided to upgrade it.
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 started with industrial CT scanning which for us was the most valuable but underutilized tool in the manufacturing toolbox enabling us to rapidly inspect essential components non-destructively.
We rebuilt the whole system from X-ray capture to computer vision analysis to web-based collaboration to the entire business model making the most advanced manufacturing tech more accessible to every industry. Our company like our platform is designed for upgrades. Were building for greater intelligence autonomy and speed. For deeper vision operational excellence and powerful insights. And then well upgrade it all again.
Lumafield is headquartered in Cambridge MA and has an office in San Francisco CA.
About the role:
The Hardware Group is looking for a Mechanical Engineer to help design prototype and refine the next generation of our industrial CT scanning systems. Youll work across disciplines - from motion systems and structures to system integration and user-facing features - to develop reliable manufacturable and innovative solutions.
Our product is a complex hardware-software system. Success in this role requires systems thinking hands-on prototyping and the ability to bring structure to ambiguous design problems. Youll collaborate with electrical firmware systems and software engineers to create hardware thats not just functional but delightful to use.
This is a hands-on in-person role based in our Cambridge MA office.
What youll do:
Lead the technical aspects of mechanical design for complex assemblies and subsystems developing well-scoped milestones to deliver on quarter-scale goals.
Accelerate project timelines by leveraging your technical expertise to make informed tradeoffs in scope and execution.
Decompose business goals into technical solutions that can be executed by multiple individuals on the team.
Drive cross-functional collaboration with stakeholders to identify technical needs and develop effective engineering goals.
Unblock yourself and the team by proactively assessing and eliminating the root causes of barriers.
Actively work with and mentor more junior colleagues to help them refine their craft.
About you:
Can identify appropriate solutions to ambiguous under-defined and open-ended problems.
Excel at navigating ambiguity and remaining resilient through the ups and downs of a project.
Effectively communicate and coordinate requirements with other teams tailoring your message to the audience.
Consider the short- and long-term impacts of large technology choices.
Serve as a role model for other engineers and model a standard of excellence.
Have self-awareness of your strengths and weaknesses and reliably take action on feedback.
Typically have a bachelors or masters degree and multiple years of relevant experience executing a broad range of activities directly applicable to the role.
Bonus points for:
Experience leading projects through a complete product life-cycle.
Experience designing motion systems precision mechanisms or mounting for imaging systems.
Background in industrial automation inspection or scientific instrumentation.
Familiarity with tolerance analysis FEA or thermal simulations.
A portfolio of mechanical designs prototypes or shipped products you can share.
$105000 - $150000 a year
