At Ouster, we build sensors and tools for engineers, roboticists, and researchers, so they can make the world safer and more efficient. We've transformed LIDAR from an analog device with thousands of components to an elegant digital device powered by one chip-scale laser array and one CMOS sensor. The result is a full range of high-resolution LIDAR sensors that deliver superior imaging at a dramatically lower price. Our advanced sensor hardware and vision algorithms are used in autonomous cars, drones and many other applications. If you’re motivated by solving big problems, we’re hiring key roles across the company and need your help!

• Experience in automated micro electronic and photonic assembly processes (wafer inspection, high accuracy epoxy/solder die attach, wire bonding, vision inspection, glob top/underfill dispense)
• Working knowledge of Failure Analysis tools such as X-ray, 3D interferometry, DIC microscopy, SEM, cross-section, destructive testing, etc.
• Understanding of CMOS image sensor sensor architecture and operation is preferred

BONUS QUALIFICATIONS:

• Bachelor's and/or Master's degree in Electrical or Mechanical Engineering
• Experience with optical systems 
• Experience with ATE package test environment
• Experience with statistical analysis for volume production processes
• AEC-Q100 or related automotive qualification experience
