Job description

Vention is headquartered in Montreal, Canada, with offices in Berlin and Boston, and is used in over 3,000 factories on 5 continents. As one of Canada’s Most Admired Cultures and Great Place to Work, we are a performance-driven culture that cares deeply about happiness. We like ambitious goals, facts & data, and constructive debates. But at the same time, we know that we can’t repeatedly push ourselves if we are not surrounded by an uplifting and caring work environment. Those two sides of our culture feed each other and are safeguarded with the same level of attention. Our values & principles include:

• We make our clients successful - we do what’s right for our customers, even when it makes our roles more challenging.
• We execute and deliver - we set ambitious goals for ourselves and are energized about meeting them.
• We debate, then commit - we challenge our own perspectives and ideas in pursuit of the best solutions.
• We innovate to inspire - we value innovation in products, user experiences, and business practices.
• We collaborate to achieve more - we work as one team to achieve more than we would on our own.
• We empower our people to reach their full potential - we hold ourselves to high standards but know when to celebrate progress & achievements.

• Organize your team’s work: quarterly planning, agile sprint planning and ceremony facilitation, code and feature reviews, automated tests, deployment, and maintenance.
• Leverage your experience with 3D graphics to enhance design creation tools & workflows.
• Partner with Product Managers to define strategic product roadmaps and priorities.
• Participate in the design of the user experience and our graphical user interfaces.
• Maintain and improve the design & architecture of Machine Builder’s codebase.

• Understanding of distributed system design and the related technical challenges.
• Strong linear algebra with good exposure to computer graphics.
• Experience with 3D libraries (Three.js, Unity, Unreal, WebGL/OpenGL) is a definite plus.
• Experience programming 3D CAD/content-creation tools is a strong plus.
• Love of new challenges and ability to work in a fast-paced environment
