HyperLight Tech Stack

Integrated photonic circuits for telecom, data centers, and quantum applications

Computer Hardware Manufacturing Cambridge, Massachusetts 51–200 employees Privately Held

HyperLight designs and manufactures integrated optical circuits—photonic chips that convert signals between electricity and light. The stack reveals a hardware-software hybrid: simulation tools (Lumerical, Tidy3D, HFSS, COMSOL), circuit design (Cadence, KLayout), manufacturing standards (CMOS, Silicon Photonics, JEDEC), and test/validation frameworks (FMEA, SPC, BERT). Active hiring is heavily weighted toward engineering (17 of 22 roles), with senior and mid-level positions concentrated on product volume ramp, scalable test systems, and yield improvement—suggesting a shift from R&D into production scaling.
