About the role

<div class="content-intro"> At Lightcast we are enabling scientists to gain a deeper understanding of human health and disease at the cellular level. Our technology enables the direct, precise interrogation of single cell heterogeneity, interactions and functional behaviours with a level of flexibility and scale that was previously inaccessible. Across a broad range of disciplines from basic and translational research to drug discovery, we provide the freedom to accelerate discovery and apply novel biological insights.  </div>At Lightcast we are enabling scientists to gain a deeper understanding of human health and disease at the cellular level. Our technology enables the direct, precise interrogation of single cell heterogeneity, interactions and functional behaviours with a level of flexibility and scale that was previously inaccessible. Across a broad range of disciplines from basic and translational research to drug discovery, we provide the freedom to accelerate discovery and apply novel biological insights.   The Lightcast platform is a benchtop laboratory instrument that uses microfluidics to allow precise and highly flexible control of thousands of aqueous microdroplets using software-generated light patterns. Control systems enable the integrated optical, mechanical, and fluidic sub-systems to perform complex workflows and assays used in the search for drug candidates.  We are seeking a Senior Mechatronics Engineer to join our team and take a leading role in system design and engineering activities. The ideal candidate will have extensive experience delivering complex systems within a product business through a background in Electronics, Mechatronics or Mechanical Engineering, with an emphasis on designing and debugging systems at the intersection of hardware, firmware and control.
