Member of Technical Staff, LiDAR Systems Engineer
Lumotive is pioneering the era of programmable opticswhere light is controlled as intelligently and flexibly as software.
At the heart of this transformation is a once-in-a-generation innovation: a flat CMOS-based general purpose optic. Lumotives Light Control Metasurface (LCM) beam forming chips can be programmed to function as a beam steering mirror, a lens, mirror, a beam splitteror any optical functionreplacing bulky and mechanical optical components with a fully digital, reconfigurable semiconductor . This breakthrough lays the foundation for a massive shift in multiple technologiesfrom 3D sensing and imaging to optical networking, free space optical communication, and beyond. Like the shift from analog to digital in electronics, programmable optics will reshape industries from robotics, self-driving cars, AI, defense, and healthcare.
Lumotives first commercial application is in LiDAR, where its software-defined beam steering chips are already enabling compact, high-performance, solid-state sensors. These sensors are being deployed today in smart infrastructure, robotics, and mobility systems through leading module makers and solution integrators.
With more than 200 patents and growing commercial traction, Lumotive is delivering the worlds first digital platform for lightand redefining whats possible in the optical age.
Job Description:
This position senior level lead position will play a key role in a start-up environment in our Oman office. You will lead system-level development and customer enablement for Lumotive-based LiDAR solutions. This role acts as the technical anchor for complex debugging, system architecture, and high-value customer engagements.
Responsibilities:
- Lead system-level design, debugging, and optimization of LiDAR systems (iToF and dToF)
- Support module maker partners through design → prototype → production
- Act as technical lead in customer and ecosystem engagements
- Drive performance analysis and trade-offs across range, FoV, resolution, power, frame rate
- Debug issues across optics, electronics, firmware, and software stack
- Guide and mentor junior engineers across testing, system behavior, data interpretation
- Contribute to system architecture decisions and future product direction
Qualifications:
- Master’s degree in Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Computer Science or related field
- 5+ years in LiDAR / 3D sensing systems
- Proven experience designing and delivering LiDAR systems (end-to-end)
- Deep knowledge of SPAD-based dToF systems and Indirect ToF (iToF) architectures
- Strong understanding of LiDAR signal chain, calibration and system tuning, noise, multipath, and artifact handling
- Experience with point cloud processing, DSP, and signal processing
- Familiarity with perception stacks and embedded / edge compute platforms
