$175,000.00/yr - $220,000.00/yr About Lumilens
At Lumilens we are building the critical photonics infrastructure that powers tomorrows AI supercomputing. From chip-to-chip optical interconnects to scalable photonic engines, Lumilens is unlocking a new era of computingfaster, cooler, and massively more efficient. Were a well-funded startup backed by Mayfield and led by veterans whove built and scaled some of the most transformative technologies in the industry. At Lumilens, were developing high-speed photonics products purpose-built to power the future of AI infrastructure and high-performance computing. This isnt incremental innovationits a ground-floor opportunity to rethink the optical layer from the silicon up. Youll work alongside a team of world-class engineers solving some of the hardest challenges in optics, systems, and scale. Every line of code, every design decision, every breakthrough you help deliverwill shape the infrastructure of tomorrow. If youre looking for mission, momentum, and the chance to make an outsized impactjump on the rocket ship. Were just getting started. About the Role
As a Software engineer specialising in automation, you will work on test automation and networking protocols. You will help validate complex systems at Layer 1 and Layer 2 using tools like Ixia and build Python based frameworks. Key Responsibilities
Develop, maintain, and execute automated test cases in Python. Perform functional, regression, and performance testing on Layer 1 and Layer network systems. Validate hardware and software integration with optical interfaces and network switches. Configure and use traffic generators (e.g., IXIA) to simulate network environments and evaluate performance. Collaborate with developers and hardware engineers to identify, reproduce, and resolve defects. Document test cases, results, and defects in test management tools. Maintain code and test assets in version control systems (GitHub or Bitbucket). Continuously improve test frameworks and methodologies. Required Skills & Qualifications
Bachelors or Masters degree in Computer Science, Electronics, Telecommunications, or related field. 48 years of hands-on experience in software testing and test automation. Strong proficiency in Python for test automation. Good understanding of Layer 1 and Layer 2 networking protocols. Experience with optical testing, network switches, and traffic generators like IXIA. Ability to debug issues in complex networking environments. Experience with Jenkins or ArgoCD and other CI/CD tools. Familiarity with Shell scripting for automation and environment setup. Exposure to C# for UI validation or tool development is a plus. What we offer
Competitive salary commensurate with experience Professional development opportunities and certification support Access to cutting-edge technology and cloud platforms Collaborative work environment with cross-functional teams Lumilens is an equal opportunity employer.
