About this role
About Lumafield:
Lumafield was founded in 2019 to upgrade manufacturing.
We are engineers with deep experience across the product development cycle, from initial ideas to shipping hardware, across industries and specializations, who became frustrated by the cost and complexity of modern manufacturing. So we decided to upgrade it.
Engineers make million-dollar decisions every day, and they need tools that give them the greatest possible insight into their products. By offering unprecedented visibility into products, as well as AI-driven tools that highlight problems and generate quantitative data, Lumafield promises to revolutionize the way complex products are created, manufactured, and used across industries. We started with industrial CT scanning, which for us was the most valuable but underutilized tool in the manufacturing toolbox, enabling us to rapidly inspect essential components non-destructively.
We rebuilt the whole system, from X-ray capture, to computer vision analysis, to web-based collaboration, to the entire business model, making the most advanced manufacturing tech more accessible to every industry. Our company, like our platform, is designed for upgrades. We’re building for greater intelligence, autonomy, and speed. For deeper vision, operational excellence, and powerful insights. And then we'll upgrade it all again.
Lumafield is headquartered in Cambridge, MA, and has an office in San Francisco, CA.
About the role:
Lumafield is looking for an ML-experienced, customer-facing engineer to help customers achieve business results with CT-generated data. As an AI/ML Application Engineer, you will develop, test, and implement machine learning models inside customer engineering and manufacturing environments — for defect detection, dimensional analysis, anomaly detection, and process control.
The role includes both customer-facing work and internal platform work. With customers, you will scope ML applications, build and validate models against their data, and deploy them into their production workflows, remotely and on-site. You will work closely with Project Managers and the rest of the customer-facing organization including other Applications Engineers and Customer Success team members.
Internally, you will partner with Product Management and Software Engineering to harden recurring customer needs into product, and contribute to Lumafield's internal AI/ML strategy across the platform.
