Join Freeform as a Software Engineer and play a key role in developing and deploying software systems for autonomous metal 3D printing factories. Collaborate with a talented engineering team and work on various projects, including controls, high-speed data acquisition, high-performance computing, and geometry processing pipelines. Your work will directly impact the performance, reliability, and scalability of our factory systems. This is an opportunity to build foundational systems for a new category of manufacturing technology.
Missions
- Architect and develop software for an advanced, production-scale metal 3D printing factory.
- Work with process, control, and mechanical engineers to integrate control algorithms into production software.
- Improve and scale out high-rate data acquisition, storage, and retrieval systems.
Profil recherché
- 3D printing experience is not required to be successful here - rather we look for smart, motivated, collaborative engineers who love solving hard problems and creating amazing technology!- Internship or engineering club experience such as FSAE, Baja SAE, solar car, rocket club, robotics club, hackathons, or similar programming with C/C++ or Rust
- Bachelor's degree in computer science or computer engineering from an ABET accredited university or college
- Comfortable working in fast-paced, ambiguous environments and iterating quickly (comfortable building the plane as we fly it)
- Advanced degree (Master's, PhD) in computer science or computer engineering
- Experience interfacing with microcontrollers, FPGA, or GPU computing hardware
- Experience writing software for industrial automation systems, rockets, spacecrafts, robotics, or related hardware that operates with the physical world
- Experience developing embedded or real-time software systems
- Experience working in a Linux or RTOS environment
- Strong communicator who collaborates across disciplines and proactively seeks support when needed
- Strong work ethic with a refuse-to-fail mindset
- Willing to take ownership of tasks big and small, with a hands-on, problem-solving mindset
- Demonstrated indicators of excellence and/or achieving success against adversity (i.e. top academic performance, leadership in engineering clubs, first-generation college student, or other examples of resilience and achievement)
