Mechanical Engineer – Camera Systems

JOB DESCRIPTION

We’re looking for a LiDAR Optical Systems Engineer to design and optimize the optical sub-systems powering our next-generation spatial sensing platform. You’ll own the full lifecycle — from initial concept and simulation to lab validation and manufacturing handoff — working closely with mechanical, electrical, and firmware teams along the way. The ideal candidate holds an MS or PhD in optical engineering or physics, has 3+ years shipping optical systems, and is fluent in Zemax or Code V. LiDAR or time-of-flight experience is a strong plus. Ready to shape how machines perceive the world?

NOTES
Hesai Group (Nasdaq: HSAI; HKEX: 2525), a global tech company and a leader in 3D perception, today announced that it has secured a new design win from another top-tier European automaker, building on its recently announced L3 program with Mercedes-Benz. The new order exceeds 1 million units and covers more than 10 models across the OEM’s joint venture brands in China. This partnership further demonstrates top-tier global automakers’ strong recognition of Hesai’s full-stack in-house ASIC development, reliable product performance, and large-scale mass production capabilities. To date, Hesai has secured design wins from 40 OEMs across more than 160 vehicle models. Built on Hesai's decade of lidar expertise, Kosmo is a next-generation spatial intelligence camera designed to capture the 3D world in high fidelity — translating physical space into rich, interactive digital environments. Where traditional cameras capture light, Kosmo captures dimension: precise geometry, color, and depth, unified in a single device..The vision is simple: make the physical world legible to AI. Kosmo feeds the data pipelines that train world models, power embodied AI systems, and enable robots to understand and navigate real spaces. Whether mapping a home for immersive design or generating training data for the next generation of robotics, Kosmo turns the real world into something machines can finally learn from. This is the eye of physical AI. This is Kosmo.
