Job description

About Us

• Think Gen-AI for blueprints. At DraftAid, we are building software that generates CAD manufacturing drawings.
• Mechanical engineers and designers spend 40% of their time creating production drawings from their 3D models. It's a tedious process, error-prone, and often delays projects by weeks! DraftAid auto-generates these detailed drawings with a single click. Engineers designing anything from skyscrapers to car parts use DraftAid to speed up their workflow. With DraftAid, designers can model, and leave the drawings to AI!
• We are hiring a Software engineer who’s excited to bring AI into the mechanical design space.

Responsibilities

• Lead the development and implementation of our core technology stack, including geometry-based algorithms, AI/ML systems, full-stack software development, and integration with CAD tools.
• Collaborate with the founding team to define the technical roadmap and set priorities that align with our business goals.
• Develop and maintain scalable backend services and robust front-end applications.
• Take ownership of the entire software development lifecycle, from concept through deployment and support.

Requirements

• Proven experience in building software systems, with a strong portfolio of projects that demonstrate expertise.
• Extensive full-stack development experience working with C#, React, NodeJS, Python, Typescript, Postgres, AWS
• Experience developing complex algorithms or ML models
• Exposure to CAD tools and 3D technologies like Three.js, Unity, OpenGL, OpenCascade, etc.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience in a founding or early-stage startup environment.
• Contributions to open-source projects or a strong presence in the tech community.
• Familiarity with agile development methodologies and best practices in software engineering.
• Demonstrated experience interacting with CAD programs through APIs, showcasing the ability to integrate and manipulate CAD systems programmatically.
• Demonstrated experience interacting with 3D engines such as Parasolid, OpenCascade, ThreeJS, Unity 3D

What We Offer

• A dynamic and supportive team environment where your contributions are valued and celebrated.
• A unique opportunity to be a part of a groundbreaking startup from its early stages.
• Competitive salary and equity package.
• Flexible working hours.
• The chance to work on challenging projects that have the potential to transform manufacturing.
