Software Engineer (Computational Geometry)

At Layup Parts, we're developing the technology that will build the future. We're a manufacturing technology company replacing months of lead time with days, using proprietary software, automation, and advanced manufacturing systems built for speed. Our customers are inventing what's next, in aerospace, defense, robotics, and beyond. To keep up with them, manufacturing has to change. That's what we're building. We are looking for exceptional Software Engineers with deep interest or experience in computational geometry, CAD/CAM systems, and geometric algorithms. In this role, you'll work directly with our CTO and software team to develop the geometric engine that powers our manufacturing platform. You'll build systems that analyze customer CAD models, automate manufacturability assessments, generate tooling and production geometry, and help bridge the gap between digital design and physical manufacturing. This is a rare opportunity to work on challenging geometry problems while seeing your software directly impact real aerospace hardware production. As an early-stage company, we value engineers who thrive in ambiguity, take ownership, and enjoy building systems from the ground up. What You'll Work On: Build software that analyzes, manipulates, and generates complex 3D geometry Develop algorithms that evaluate manufacturability of composite parts and tooling Build interfac [... source excerpt omitted ...] l engineering tools that improve speed, quality, and scalability across the factory Collaborate closely with manufacturing, operations, and software teams to translate real-world production challenges into software solutions Help shape technical architecture and mentor other engineers as the team grows What we’re looking for: Be awesome! Be the kind of person others want to work with. Strong software engineering fundamentals and a track record of solving difficult technical problems Ability to independently drive projects from concept through implementation Strong problem-solving and analytical thinking skills Experience building production-quality software systems Ability [... source excerpt omitted ...] form service, Veteran status, age, or any other protected characteristic per federal, state, or local law, including those with a criminal history, in a manner consistent with the requirements of applicable state and local laws, including the CA Fair Chance Initiative for Hiring Ordinance.
