Electrical Engineer - Help Build the Future of Optical Computing at Scale!

Los Angeles, CA

  • Onsite

Opportunity Summary

A fast-growing, venture-backed startup at the forefront of next-generation hardware is on a mission to revolutionize computing through photonics. With recent funding secured and momentum building, we're developing scalable, high-performance optical computing systems, and we're looking for an Electrical Engineer to help drive our first commercial launch. In this role, you'll take the lead on developing high-speed electrical test systems, designing robust validation tools, and ensuring production hardware meets strict performance standards. If you enjoy working across the stack, from prototyping to manufacturing test, this is an opportunity to work hands-on with bleeding-edge tech in a collaborative and fast-moving startup environment.

About Us

We're a well-funded technology company headquartered in Los Angeles, designing and scaling the first high-volume optical computing hardware platform in North America. Our approach merges deep physics with precision engineering, developing our own factories, designing custom silicon and interconnects, and writing performance-critical software. Our team comprises builders, engineers, and scientists driven by a vision to redefine the limits of hardware performance through light-based computing.

Job Duties

  • Lead the design, validation, and maintenance of test systems for optical interconnect and embedded hardware.
  • Create signal integrity test platforms using controlled impedance routing, high-speed fixtures, and lab-grade tools (e.g., VNAs, BERTs, scopes).
  • Define and own the infrastructure for board bring-up, firmware flashing (JTAG / boundary scan), and automated end-of-line testing in production environments.
  • Evaluate test coverage and ensure performance metrics are met across high-speed SerDes and embedded systems.
  • Analyze failure data from electrical testing, isolate root causes, and collaborate with cross-functional teams on corrective actions.
  • Work closely with firmware, mechanical, and manufacturing teams to validate designs under real-world operating conditions.
  • Support the transition of test solutions from engineering prototypes to volume production with an emphasis on throughput and reliability.
  • Qualifications

  • BS or MS in Electrical Engineering or a closely related field.
  • 5+ years of experience in PCB design and hardware validation, including embedded systems or production test platforms.
  • Proficient in schematic capture and multi-layer board layout (Altium or similar), with a strong understanding of design for test (DFT) and design for manufacturing (DFM).
  • Comfortable with hands-on electrical debugging using scopes, analyzers, and other lab instrumentation.
  • Proven success in board bring-up, system-level electrical validation, and root cause troubleshooting.
  • Preferred Experience

  • Experience owning or developing electrical test and evaluation platforms for hardware deployed at scale.
  • Familiarity with scripting for test automation and data analysis (Python, MATLAB, LabVIEW, etc.).
  • Understanding of embedded system boot interfaces (JTAG / SWD), firmware flashing workflows, and system bring-up processes.
  • Background working with cross-functional engineering teams in a production or manufacturing setting.
  • Prior work in startups or high-velocity environments where flexibility and iteration were key to success.
  • Why Join Us

  • Be part of a groundbreaking team redefining the future of computing hardware
  • Work on next-gen optical systems that push the limits of traditional electronics
  • Collaborate with world-class engineers, physicists, and systems designers
  • Shape a foundational role in a rapidly scaling company
  • Enjoy top-tier benefits and an employee-first culture
  • Relocation assistance to Southern California
  • Compensation Details

    150,000 - $190,000 plus equity
