Build the software that runs a factory, from raw materials to finished parts. This is a hands-on role with ownership across product, architecture, and deployment, working directly with hardware engineers and factory operators.



Own product, architecture, and deployment for a manufacturing OS covering supply chain, quoting, pricing, inventory, scheduling, and production workflows — plus CAD automation, mold generation, simulation, and real-time factory data pipelines feeding a digital twin. You'll work directly with hardware engineers and factory operators.

  • 2-8 years shipping production-grade software

  • Full-stack: TypeScript frontend, Python or Go backend

  • Built operational systems from scratch (ERP, MES, logistics, inventory, or similar) with complex relational data models

  • End-to-end ownership track record, from problem definition to production

  • Thrives in ambiguity, ships fast, communicates well, works directly with non-technical operators


Nice to have



  • Manufacturing, robotics, or hardware/software integration background

  • CAD, computational geometry, or 3D environments

  • Physics simulation, model post-training, or quantization

  • Founding-engineer or early-stage startup experience
