Director, Analog

Lumotive is pioneering the era of programmable optics—where 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.” Lumotive’s Light Control Metasurface (LCM™) beam forming chips can be programmed to function as a beam steering mirror, a lens, mirror, a beam splitter—or any optical function—replacing bulky and mechanical optical components with a fully digital, reconfigurable semiconductor . This breakthrough lays the foundation for a massive shift in multiple technologies—from 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.

Lumotive’s 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 world’s first digital platform for light—and redefining what’s possible in the optical age.

 

Lumotive is seeking a highly experienced and hands-on Director of Analog to lead the development of next-generation analog circuitry for Beam steering mixed-signal ASIC controllers. This leadership role is critical in defining and driving the development of active transistor matrix arrays and analog channel driver technologies in close collaboration with optical and ASIC design teams.

You will oversee the full life cycle of mixed-signal IPs—from architecture definition, design, and layout to tape-out, silicon bring-up, and mass production. This role requires a seasoned technical leader with deep domain expertise, exceptional problem-solving skills, and the ability to thrive in a fast-paced, interdisciplinary environment.
