At Lumentum, we’re building the tech behind the world’s fastest networks and most advanced systems. Our optical and photonic solutions power everything from AI and cloud computing to data centers, telecom, and advanced manufacturing.

We’re a global team of innovators working where light meets technology, solving big challenges that keep the world connected and moving forward. If shaping the future of connectivity excites you, you’ll fit right in.

Why You’ll Love This Role

You will work at the intersection of embedded engineering and customer support, using your C/C++ and troubleshooting skills to resolve real-world issues, backed by a collaborative team that values clear communication as much as clean code.

What You’ll Be Doing

  • Build and optimize multi-threaded and multicore applications, ensuring efficient, reliable performance.
  • Troubleshoot, debug, and resolve complex software and system-level issues.
  • Support customer-reported issues by investigating root causes, providing timely resolutions, and communicating findings clearly.
  • Collaborate closely with cross-functional team members to design, implement, and validate solutions.
  • Work with schematics to understand hardware connections and how software interacts with electronic components.
  • Contribute to automation, tooling, or scripting tasks using Python where applicable.

What We’re Looking For

Education:
Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Software Engineering, Electrical Engineering or a related field

Experience:
Core Requirements:

  • 4+ years of embedded C/C++ development experience.
  • Solid understanding of multi-threaded software experience working in Linux-based environments
  • Proficient in object-oriented programming principles and design patterns.
  • Team player with strong communication and collaboration skills.
  • Strong problem solving, troubleshooting and debugging skills.

Skills:

  • Experience using operating systems with strong understanding of multithreaded and multicore applications.
  • Ability to use a schematic to understand how electronic devices are connected.
  • Python development experience.

Perks You’ll Love

  • Flexible time off
  • Health and wellness benefits (physical and mental)
  • Tuition reimbursement and career growth support
  • A workplace built for you: free gym, games room, prayer room
  • Subsidized meals, free coffee/tea
  • Employee stock options and incentive plans
  • A collaborative, innovative, and inclusive culture

Salary Range
The salary range for this position is $80,000 - $115,000

Final compensation will be determined based on factors such as experience, skills, and qualifications. In line with our commitment to being a great place to work, Lumentum offers competitive total rewards which may include annual bonus, equity, and comprehensive health and welfare benefits.
