Waterloo, Canada AdHawk Microsystems Full time

About AdHawk


AdHawk Microsystems is changing the way that humans interact with computers by introducing microsystems that can detect eye movements and micro-gestures with unprecedented resolution, speed, and power efficiency. Our eye tracking sensors will transform the way people use Virtual and Augmented Reality (VR/AR) technology (the next major computing platform) through foveated rendering, intuitive and seamless UI design, and enhanced immersion. Our all-day wearable technology will also provide unprecedented insights into cognitive health, eye health, and productivity.


AdHawk spun off of the University of Waterloo in 2017 with investment from Intel Capital, Samsung Ventures, Sony Innovation, HP Ventures, Essilor Luxottica, and others. Our team consists of researchers and engineers of the highest caliber with a deep sense of curiosity and a passion for the technology we develop. We publish award-winning research papers, fabricate custom silicon chips at leading foundries, and push the boundaries of physics and manufacturing to develop products that create compelling value for our customers.


Successful candidates will gain hands-on familiarity with several new HCI peripherals built around a groundbreaking MEMS electro-optical sensor platform. You will be one of the first people to have an opportunity to redefine the way VR/AR technology is used. You will also have a chance to develop new paradigms in gestural input technology on tomorrow's wearable devices. Our range of customers and collaborators include many of the most recognizable names in mobile electronics
