System Integration Engineer - FMCW-LiDAR
Apply NowCompany: Voyant Photonics
Location: New York, NY 10025
Description:
About Us:
Voyant Photonics, based in the heart of New York City, is transforming machine perception with a new class of LiDAR devices that are compact enough to fit in the palm of your hand and powerful enough to measure range, velocity, and reflectivity with unparalleled accuracy. By leveraging cutting-edge silicon photonic chips smaller than your fingertip, we deliver sensors that are not only revolutionary in performance but also affordable enough to integrate into any system.
Our technology disrupts the status quo of bulky, expensive, and power-hungry LiDAR systems, making high-precision sensing accessible for widespread adoption in robotics, autonomous vehicles, drones, industrial automation, and beyond. With Voyant, the next generation of machines can see, understand, and navigate the world like never before.
Discover how we're redefining what's possible by making real products out of cutting edge research in silicon photonics.
Why Join Us:
We are seeking a bright, self-motivated System Integration Engineer to accelerate the development of our cutting-edge FMCW LiDAR products. In this role, you will be instrumental in turning innovative concepts into practical, high-performance solutions. You'll design and execute comprehensive system-level verification tests, lead the bring-up of new LiDAR systems, and perform detailed calibration and characterization-all while collaborating closely with a multidisciplinary engineering team. Your contributions will be crucial in supporting both our customer base and production operations.
Location: NYC Office (on-site)
