Innovation is about the people who make it happen
Lightmatter has created a culture of innovation focused on supporting the very people who make it happen. The technology is truly groundbreaking and the first of its kind. As an engineer, the work is challenging, rewarding, and exciting. Flexible work environment (many are hybrid). The collaboration and teamwork feels really solid across the board. The people here are some of the best and brightest in the world, and are truly fantastic to work alongside.
As someone who has worked with scientists and engineers my entire career, the caliber here is not only due to technical expertise. It is the fact that each person here chooses to collaborate out of respect for their team's excellence, and nothing more. I always feel encouraged by others to share my new ideas, and supported by the team and management in every way.
None - this is the right place for me.
Stay focused on supporting people above all. Their collaboration and collective excellence is the recipe for success. Maintain a high level of caliber for talent as the company grows.

Dft Engineer
I applied online. The process took one week. First, I got a recruiter call for initial screening, then into the technical interview. Then I couldn't get into the second round. It was pretty straightforward. The company's idea was excellent.
Technical Architect
It was a clear and good process, but we decided to chat later, not now. So we stopped it, and I found another position. I think it could work out. It works better with a referral.
