HyperLight is at the forefront of the commercialization of thin-film lithium niobate (TFLN) integrated photonics - a material and process technology that is enabling high-performance, scalable optical components across AI/datacom infrastructure, hyperscale computing, quantum computing, sensing, and beyond. Founded in 2018 and backed by leading venture capital, we’ve built a team and a platform focused on real-world mass deployment of TFLN photonics technology.
At the core of our work is the TFLN Chiplet™ platform — a modular, integrated architecture designed for scalability, manufacturability, and seamless integration into complex systems. It offers a rare combination of extraordinary performance and industrial readiness, enabling system developers across applications to deploy the technology fast and ready. We partner with our customers and suppliers from conceptualization, design, and prototyping phases, all the way through mass production to ensure smooth and rapid deployment of TFLN photonic technology.
We believe our platform is the key, in the golden age of integrated photonics, to empower humanity to the next level. We assembled a world class team covering engineering, business, and operations. We believe in the power of integrity, innovation, collaboration, and pragmatic solutions. Our diverse team thrives on challenges and is united by a shared commitment to excellence. We take pride in tackling complex challenges with curiosity, humility, and a deep sense of care for one another.
Our growing team is looking for a Quality Assurance Manager to join our growing team.

- Support and maintain the company Quality Management System (QMS) in accordance with ISO standards.
- Participate in internal quality audits and support external ISO certification maintenance audits.
- Assist with planning and execution of supplier audits and supplier quality assessments.
- Drive corrective and preventive action (CAPA) processes including root cause analysis, corrective actions, and effectiveness verification.
- Collaborate with cross‑functional teams including design, product/test engineering, reliability, and operations to resolve quality issues.
- Work with external semiconductor manufacturing partners including wafer foundries and OSAT assembly/test suppliers to ensure product quality and process control.
- Support supplier quality management activities including supplier qualification, supplier corrective actions, and supplier performance monitoring.
- Develop and maintain supplier quality metrics and supplier scorecards to monitor performance and drive improvement.
- Analyze quality metrics to identify risks and improvement opportunities.
- Support failure analysis investigations including coordination with internal teams and external manufacturing partners.
- Support 8D/RMA and field return investigations to identify root causes and implement corrective actions.
- Participate in New Product Introduction (NPI) activities including PLC process, quality planning, risk assessments, and manufacturing readiness.
- Support design teams with Design for Quality (DFQ) principles during product development.
- Assist with engineering change control processes and ensure quality impacts of changes are properly evaluated and documented.
- Participate in risk management activities including FMEA or similar risk assessment methodologies.
- Collaborate with reliability engineering teams on qualification planning and reliability monitoring aligned with industry practices such as JEDEC or Telcordia when applicable.
- Interface with customers on quality or reliability topics as well as chemical management system requirements when required and support customer quality/CMS documentation.
- Develop and maintain quality procedures, work instructions, and documentation as required by the QMS.
- Promote continuous improvement initiatives across engineering, manufacturing partners, and supply chain.
