Senior Software Engineer, CAD Interoperability

Accountabilities

• Design, develop, and maintain scalable import pipelines that convert proprietary and native CAD formats into structured programmatic representations.
• Create systems capable of extracting complex CAD information, including geometry, feature trees, parameters, assemblies, constraints, metadata, and design intent.
• Develop integrations with native CAD APIs and SDKs to enhance interoperability where standard conversion tools are insufficient.
• Translate extracted engineering data into clean, reliable code while preserving model accuracy and structure.
• Create validation frameworks, automated testing tools, and quality metrics to evaluate geometry, topology, assemblies, and generated outputs.
• Troubleshoot challenging interoperability issues involving multiple CAD formats, software versions, incomplete metadata, and vendor-specific behaviors.
• Collaborate closely with engineering and product teams to continuously improve CAD import capabilities and support real-world customer use cases.

Requirements

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Mechanical Engineering, or a related discipline, or equivalent practical experience.
• Strong professional software engineering experience, ideally involving CAD systems, geometry processing, data extraction, file formats, or code generation.
• Proficiency with systems programming languages such as Rust or C++, including experience working with external SDKs and APIs.
• Experience developing translation pipelines, automation tools, testing frameworks, and debugging complex technical systems.
• Able to work independently, investigate unfamiliar technologies, and deliver practical solutions in a fast-moving environment.
• Strong understanding of CAD concepts such as assemblies, sketches, constraints, dimensions, features, B-rep geometry, and related data structures is highly desirable.
• Experience with CAD interoperability SDKs, native CAD APIs, industry-standard exchange formats (STEP, IGES, Parasolid, ACIS, JT, glTF, STL, etc.), or programmatic CAD workflows is considered a strong advantage.

Benefits

• Competitive salary ranging from $145,000 to $195,000 USD, depending on experience, skills, location, and market factors.
• Equity participation alongside base compensation.
• Comprehensive benefits package (may vary by geographic location).
• Remote work environment with opportunities to collaborate across distributed teams.
• Opportunity to work on cutting-edge engineering software and AI-powered hardware design technologies.
• Inclusive workplace committed to diversity, collaboration, and continuous innovation.
