About Us here at Luxtera:

Luxtera, Inc.
Location: Carlsbad, California
(North San Diego Beach City – Tech Area “Silicon Beach”)

About Us:
Luxtera is a technology development Silicon Photonics company. Our technology platform enables a new breed of monolithic opto-electronic devices manufactured in a low cost CMOS process. Our vision is to deliver economic optical connectivity everywhere, from network level to intra-system level, and eventually chip-to-chip. Today, the company is applying this technology to single chip transceiver products that aim to deliver optical performance at cost points associated with legacy copper solutions.

Culture:
We place a high value on diversity as we can achieve our goal of hiring only “the best and brightest”. Our staff includes both experienced veterans from the world’s largest semiconductor companies and newly minted graduates from the world’s most respected educational institutions. We work closely with our board of directors and advisory board, who provide us with the valuable perspective that can only be gained from many years of experience at the uppermost levels of venture capital, industry, academia and government.

Quality of life is a key value at Luxtera and is a big part of the reason we’ve located in southern California. Carlsbad, just north of San Diego, offers an idyllic climate, the warmest ocean on the West Coast and access to over 70 miles of beaches. If you enjoy surfing, boating or scuba diving, this is a great place to live. The city of San Diego is within commuting distance and offers all of the amenities of a large city combined with a uniquely laid back attitude. The region offers some of the best schools in California.
