Lightmatter
Lightmatter is leading the revolution in AI data center infrastructure, enabling the next giant leaps in human progress. The company invented the world’s first 3D-stacked photonics engine, Passage™, capable of connecting thousands to millions of processors at the speed of light in extreme-scale data centers for the most advanced AI and HPC workloads.
Lightmatter raised $400 million in its Series D round, reaching a valuation of $4.4 billion. We will continue to accelerate the development of data center photonics and grow every department at Lightmatter!
If you're passionate about tackling complex challenges, making an impact, and being an expert in your craft, join our team of brilliant scientists, engineers, and accomplished industry leaders.
Lightmatter is (re)inventing the future of computing with light!
About this Role We are looking for a talented engineering manager to provide technical leadership to the Hardware Systems organization to help us build the next generation of silicon photonics based artificial intelligence accelerators and interconnect products.
As a Manager, you will be responsible for delivering board and system solutions using Lightmatter’s innovative technology to create state of the art machine learning/artificial intelligence or massive scale-out interconnect platforms. You will work closely with our leadership team and program management to understand requirements, program deliverables, and project schedules to allocate resources needed to design and build leading edge system level products. You will directly manage a team of electrical engineers in their day-to-day activities and provide technical guidance and opportunities for career development.
Responsibilities Management:
Manage a small team of engineers (up to 10) in their day-to-day activities designing Lighmatter systems
Understand the resource requirements of new and existing projects and assign members of the team to contribute to the programs based on individual capabilities and workloads
Maintain project status and communicate progress, issues, mitigation plans, etc to upper management
Enforce corporate development processes as appropriate, refining the team design processes for optimal success (understanding processes are not a “one size fits all” philosophy)
Meet with your team collectively and 1:1 to discuss strategy, project updates, and career growth
Write and present performance reviews; discuss strengths, weaknesses and areas for improvement
Technical:
Collaborate with cross-functional teams to understand requirements to develop optimal solutions for system designs
Provide guidance to systems design engineers to ensure the highest quality products
Review board and system designs to understand technical challenges and overall status in all facets of the system designs including electrical, mechanical, and thermal
Communicate with other team Technical Leads and Managers to ensure dependencies are understood and milestones are met
Ensure the board and system is manufacturable to the latest technologies with high yield and robustness
Manage and work with component vendors and other supply partners
Research new components, processes, and technologies to meet product goals
Qualifications
Bachelor degree in Electrical Engineering or similar discipline with at least 12 years of relevant experience, or equivalent experience
A minimum of 5 years of people management experience
Experience in electrical board design, having successfully taken several products from concept to production.
In depth knowledge on VRMs, high speed SERDES, CPUs and various interfaces/protocols such as PCIe, Ethernet, QSPI, I3C, I2C, etc
We offer competitive compensation. The base salary range for this role determined based on location, experience, educational background, and market data.
Salary Range: total compensation goes beyond base salary, it also includes a new hire equity grant, annual performance-based equity, and other rewards that recognize your impact and contribution.
$220,000 - $288,000 USD
Retirement Savings Matching Program
Life Insurance (Basic, Voluntary & AD&D)
Generous Time Off (Vacation, Sick & Public Holidays)
Paid Family Leave
Short Term & Long Term Disability
Training & Development
Flexible, hybrid workplace model
Equity grants (applicable to full-time employees)
Benefits eligibility may vary depending on your employment status and location. Lightmatter recruits, employs, trains, compensates, and promotes regardless of race, religion, color, national origin, sex, disability, age, veteran status, and other protected status as required by applicable law.
Export Control Candidates should have capacity to comply with the federally mandated requirements of U.S. export control laws.
