Staff Mechanical Engineer

 

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 San Francisco, CA. and has an office in Cambridge, MA. 

 

The Hardware Group is looking for a Staff Mechanical Engineer to set technical direction for the mechanical engineering domain within our Hardware Group. You'll shape the architectures behind our motion systems, structures, and integrated CT hardware, along with the engineering practices used to develop them. You'll connect product needs to a technical roadmap for the next one to two years.

 

This is a hands-on individual contributor role with impact across multiple teams. You'll partner with electrical, firmware, systems, software, manufacturing, and product colleagues to resolve difficult mechanical and integration challenges. Your work will improve both the systems we ship and other engineers' ability to make sound decisions and deliver reliably.

 

This is a hands-on, in-person role based in our Cambridge, MA office.
