More About The Team

Specifically on the analysis team, you will be designing image analysis utilities and algorithms to automatically inspect customer samples. These analyses could be used to identify and classify microscopic manufacturing defects, determine roughness or smoothness of certain ROIs, calculate light intensity reaching the sample, locate specific fiducials on a sample, and many more applications! You will have the opportunity to design brand new analyzers, as well as support and optimize legacy analyzers.

Our software team is making manufacturing fast, accurate and cost-efficient by combining optical and atomic force microscopy with machine learning and artificial intelligence. Our products' usage is industry-agnostic, with aerospace, electronics, and healthcare applications. Any industry that can benefit from increased yield, reduced waste, lower costs, and faster design iteration is an industry that can benefit from using Nanotronics' technology. The solutions we build push the envelope of what can be done, so we need engineers who are highly intelligent, hardworking, and creative. Flexibility and an ability to grasp high order concepts in physics, hardware design, automation, and robotics can be helpful for understanding and resolving specific issues.

The ideal candidate will be a self-starter, who work well with in fast-paced, ever-evolving environment.

What We Offer:

• Catered lunches every Tuesday-Thursday
• Company stock options
