$140,000.00/yr - $190,000.00/yr 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. We decided to upgrade modern manufacturing by providing unprecedented visibility into products and AI‑driven tools that highlight problems and generate quantitative data.
Our flagship technology started with industrial CT scanning, enabling rapid, non‑destructive inspection of essential components. We rebuilt the entire system—X‑ray capture, computer vision analysis, web collaboration, and the business model—to make advanced manufacturing tech accessible to every industry.
Lumafield is headquartered in Cambridge, MA, with an office in San Francisco, CA. About the role
As a Senior Embedded Software Engineer you will work on the software that powers our next‑generation, manufacturing‑in‑line CT scanning products. You will develop high‑performance applications and firmware to extract the highest quality data from our hardware, collaborating closely with product, research, hardware, and software teams.
The role is based in our Cambridge, MA office; occasional travel to the Everett, MA factory and co‑office is required. What You’ll Do
Write performance edge application software to acquire, process, and stream radiograph data. Write appliance firmware to maintain tight control loops for scanner peripherals. Participate in code reviews and help set a high standard for the team’s work. Ship production‑critical Linux‑based applications. Collaborate closely with product, research, hardware, and software development teams to understand requirements and architect solutions. About You
5+ years of experience writing low‑level, high‑performance software in Python and C, with a deep understanding of performance impact on systems. 5+ years of experience shipping applications with embedded Linux, including configuring core services such as udev, systemd, and kernel schedulers. 3+ years of startup experience, balancing fast shipping with design perfection. Experience writing firmware with STM32 microcontrollers or equivalent. Experience managing the software release lifecycle for a fleet of edge/IoT devices using OTA update mechanisms and fleet monitoring. Mastery of software engineering fundamentals, debuggers, profilers, and trade‑off evaluation, plus proficiency with Python’s built‑in concurrency models (asyncio, threading, multiprocessing). Basic familiarity with electrical engineering concepts, schematic layout, PCBA design, bring‑up, and testing. Able to design, integrate, and test systems by interpreting component and product datasheets. Bachelor’s degree in Engineering or related field. Bonus Points For
Experience building and shipping high‑performance hardware‑accelerated image processing edge solutions using NVIDIA CUDA and/or Jetson platform. Experience with classical computer vision techniques and machine learning CV algorithms. Experience with microcontroller‑based motor control. Experience shipping user‑facing UIs written in React.js. The salary range listed here represents the anticipated low and high ends of the base salary. Actual salaries may vary and may be above or below the range based on various factors, including but not limited to work location, experience, and performance. All full‑time employees receive an equity grant. Lumafield offers competitive cash and equity compensation, a health & wellness stipend, 401(k), parental leave, flexible PTO, commuter benefits, company‑wide events, and more! Lumafield is committed to building a team that represents a variety of backgrounds, perspectives, and skills, because the more inclusive we are, the better our work will be.
If you feel your skills don’t meet every single requirement listed, we encourage you to apply anyway—if you’re excited about our technology, the opportunity, and eager to learn more, we’d love to hear from you!
