Formlabs
Senior Software Engineer, Print Pipeline (Algorithms)
Formlabs, Somerville, Massachusetts, us, 02145
To reinvent an industry, you have to build the best team. Join Formlabs if you want to bring groundbreaking professional 3D printers to the desktop of every designer, engineer, researcher, and artist in the world.
Our Software team continues to develop one of the most powerful and intuitive desktop print applications on the market: PreForm. Fine-tuning the geometry of models in space is one of the most complex challenges our Software Team tackles -- such as: Path planning and tool path generation, motor control for the printer, print success estimation (failure mode detection, typically using FEA/FEM, computational fluid dynamics, etc.), geometry (mesh slicing, polygon arithmetic, mesh repair and generation), support structure generation, printer/desktop communication, and dynamic, real-time print failure detection (computer vision, machine learning).
If you are a talented engineer who is excited to dive into with 3D geometric algorithms and other challenging problems, we want you to join the Desktop Software Team as an
Algorithms Software Engineer .
The Job:
Develop world class desktop 3D printer software with a focus on geometric algorithmsWork with R&D teams to integrate newly researched features into the production PreForm codebaseShip value-generating features to tens of thousands of users by implementing and optimizing a wide range of complex algorithmsWork with Product Management teams to define long-term feature roadmapYou:
Ready to collaborate with a wide range of technical disciplines, including Software, Hardware, and Design teamsExperienced in C++ object oriented design and developmentExcited to study computer science journal articles to supplement algorithm developmentExperience developing 3D graphics or computational geometryBonus Skills:
Experience with solid mechanics or FEMExperience with image processingOur Perks & Benefits:
Robust equity program to build future wealth through RSUsComprehensive healthcare coverage (Medical, Dental, Vision)Low cost fund options in our 401K and access to advisorsGenerous paid Parental Leave (up to 16 weeks)Tenure-based paid Sabbatical Leave (up to 6 weeks)Flexible Out of Office Plan - Take time when you need itAmple on-site parking & pre-tax commuter benefitsHealthy on-site lunches, snacks, beverages, & treatsRegular sponsored professional development opportunitiesMany opt-in culture events across our diverse communityAnd of course... unlimited 3D prints
