Job summary

Quilter is seeking a software engineer to drive Python-based PCB CAD file I/O, parsing, translating, and generating complex formats for our internal board model. You’ll join the File I/O team and tackle challenging reverse‑engineering tasks with senior engineers.

You’ll own features end-to-end, ship robust, tested code, and contribute to next‑gen agent-powered workflows for CAD tools. Growth opportunities exist in AI-native engineering.

Qualifications

• 3-7 years of software engineering experience, with meaningful backend or systems work.
• Strong Python proficiency. This is the language you’ll spend nearly all your time in, and real expertise here matters more than anything else on this list.
• Genuine excitement about coding agents and a real hunger to get great at them—you want a team that will invest in that growth, not throttle it.
• Comfort with ambiguous, reverse-engineering-flavored problems: unfamiliar code, undocumented formats, weird edge cases.
• General knowledge of binary formats.
• Solid fundamentals in design, testing, and debugging.
• Strong communication and high ownership in a fast-moving startup environment.

Responsibilities

• Build and extend integrations with CAD vendors’ file formats and scripting systems.
• Reverse-engineer proprietary binary and text-based formats, with support from senior engineers.
• Help shape Quilter’s internal PCB representation as we expand support for new tools.
• Write robust, well-tested code that holds up against messy real-world customer data.
• Use—and help build—the next generation of agent-powered workflows for CAD reverse engineering.
• Own features end-to-end: design, implementation, testing, rollout.
