Software Engineer - Computational Physics

The Company

Metalenz, a Boston based venture backed startup built on foundational research from Harvard University, develops next-generation imaging and sensing solutions for high-volume consumer electronics markets using patented low-cost metasurface technology, advanced image processing, and novel machine learning algorithms. The Company's latest product, Polar ID, is a groundbreaking polarizing camera that leverages the unique characteristics of metasurfaces to enable secure and affordable face unlock for all smartphones.

The Position

Metalenz is developing next-generation sensing systems for consumer electronics with metasurface technology. As a Software Engineer you will help develop the design tooling and infrastructure our team uses to engineer meta-optics. A successful candidate will be able to apply software engineering principles to a scientific Julia codebase and, preferably draw from their body of knowledge in computational electromagnetics or computational physics.

What you'll do

• Work with the design team to integrate new developments and viewpoints into our Julia-based software toolkit
• Understand and implement new features into our codebase
• Identify, refactor, and optimize performance bottlenecks
• Use and deploy heterogeneous scientific compute platforms, building code to deploy across workstations, clusters, or GPUs
• Shape the technical roadmap
• Collaborate by writing documentation, engaging in code review, and commenting on design documents
