Description

Embedded Firmware Engineer, Hardware Bring-up & Controls About us Voyant Photonics builds silicon photonic chips that steer and switch light at high speed. They power next generation, chip-scale FMCW LiDAR for robotics and autonomy, and optical circuit switches (OCS) for AI data centers. Based in NYC, we’re a hands-on team designing, building, and deploying frontier hardware to solve problems that matter, from how machines see to how AI scales. The Role: We're hiring an embedded software engineer to bring up our new boards quickly and own the drivers and control firmware that run on them. You care how an algorithm is implemented in firmware, but you're just as comfortable with the schematic open, a probe on the board and the soldering iron warm. About half your time goes to board bring-up, changing the firmware and the board together until everything comes up; the other half goes to implementing control loops and proving they work on hardware. We are a collaborative, close knit team who love to solve complex problems and building robust systems. If you enjoy the challenge of working with frontier hardware, bringing up both brand new boards and cutting-edge control loops, we are excited to talk to you. Your impact Code is cheaper to write than ever. Knowing what should be written, and what "done" means, is the job. A board is done when it works, not when the firmware compiles; a loop is done when it meets its requirements on hardware, not when the simulation looks good. We w
