As Senior New Product Introduction Engineer, you will be the technical force driving the transition of our photonic computing systems from early-stage R&D to robust, production-ready units. You will be a foundational member of our operations team, building our capabilities from the ground up. Initially, your focus will be on integration and production processes; as our operations mature and technology stabilizes, you will identify opportunities to optimize lab setups and potentially contribute to system architecture.
What You Will Do
- Build our operations capabilities from the ground up to support the assembly of Native Processing Servers, ensuring a seamless transfer from R&D to scalable production.
- Lead the hands-on assembly, testing, and debugging of high-frequency electronics and processor-based systems.
- Develop and refine production workflows, test procedures, and assembly standards to ensure repeatability and scalability.
- Optimize lab setups and equipment utilization to reduce testing overhead and costs, making data-driven decisions on resource allocation.
- Supervise freelancers and external contributors, ensuring they maintain high-level system understanding during assembly.
- Identify and resolve integration and performance bottlenecks, performing root-cause analysis across optical, electrical, and software boundaries.
- Create and maintain accurate test protocols, assembly instructions, and technical process documentation.
