Embedded Software Engineer

About Lumafield: 
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. We’re building for greater intelligence, autonomy, and speed. For deeper vision, operational excellence, and powerful insights. And then we'll upgrade it all again.
Lumafield is headquartered in Cambridge, MA, and has an office in San Francisco, CA.
On Lumafield’s Embedded team, you will work on the embedded systems that power our CT scanners. Our embedded team spans from system design to microcontroller firmware, to the application software and OS running on our embedded Linux PC(s) within our products. Most of your day-to-day work will be writing software in Python and C running on embedded Linux systems which communicates with our hardware and implements all of the edge functionality of our products. You will write code that provides interfaces for our frontend engineers to utilize for the touchscreens on the products and which synchronizes with our cloud-based Voyager application.

The Role

• Write software, primarily in Python and C, which runs on our CT scanners
• Build and deploy your software and its operating system
• Write low-level, bare-metal microcontroller firmware for STM32 MCUs in C
• Prototype with new hardware peripherals, developing firmware/drivers and integrating them into our products
• Assist in test and validation of our embedded systems including prototyping skills such as soldering, wire harness building, oscilloscope debugging, etc.
