Optical Engineer

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!   We are looking for a Optical Engineer to design our next generation of lidar sensors.

The ideal candidate will have experience designing and modeling optical and opto-mechanical systems to perform over a wide range of environments.  This role will also collaborate with electrical,...
