Through our vertically integrated delivery model and highly automated microfactories, we deliver climate resilient homes and buildings with greater speed and predictability than traditional construction.\nOur volumetric modular buildings are produced in our Andover, MA microfactory, with a growing pipeline across North America and a new microfactory on the way. We are building a system that balances repeatability with site-responsive design, enabling homes that are adaptable to each site, community, and customer need. Our cross-disciplinary team brings together architecture, robotics, design engineering, software, factory operations, and field delivery to change how housing gets delivered.\nWe’re reimagining the future of housing through a smarter and more sustainable system that empowers people to live better. Come build it with us.\nWHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR\nOur mission hinges on being able to create building designs with 10x more detail than typical architectural sets in 1/10th the time. We're looking for the software engineer to build the CAD automations that power that workflow. You'll write custom features in and around Onshape (FeatureScript and API driven), and back them with real engineering practices, so the tools you ship run reliably in production and take repeated manual work off the team's plate. Your work sits downstream of architectural design and feeds our CAD-to-fab pipeline all the way to the factory floor.\nThis is a hands-on role. The best candidate is a software engineer who enjoys living in CAD and learning new domains. You're comfortable using coding agents and modern AI tooling to prototype fast, work closely with the team, and ship something people actually use day to day rather than a demo that never leaves the shelf.\nKEY RESPONSIBILITIES\nDesign, develop, and maintain custom Onshape features in FeatureScript that run in production and hold up to daily use.\n\nAugment Onshape workflows by building out tooling and integrating with systems outside of Onshape via Onshape APIs.\n\nExpanding the capabilities and uses (skills) of our modeling MCP built on top of Onshape APIs\n\nWork with the design engineering team to find repeated manual work, prototype a solution, and get it into their daily workflow.\n\nBuild automation that integrates MEP constraints and augments device and fixture placement.\n\nBuild automated code-compliance checking, e.g. outlet placement, egress, tempered windows requirements.\n\nCollaborate with interdisciplinary teams to raise efficiency and throughput across design and manufacturing.\n\nQUALIFICATIONS\nPrior knowledge or experience in architecture or construction is not required. We'll get you up to speed.\nBS in computer science or electrical engineering, or equivalent experience.\n\n2+ years of general software engineering experience, ideally in Go, Python, C#, including automated testing, CI/CD, monitoring and alerting, debugging and root cause analysis.\n\nHands-on experience with parametric design (Onshape, Autodesk Fusion, SolidWorks, etc.) and building custom features/plugins/extensions in that platform. Experience outside of work is great!\n\nExperience using coding agents to build prototypes, work with others, and get to a solution quickly. A 0-to-1 builder.\n\nNICE TO HAVE\nExperience with Onshape and building custom features in Onshape with FeatureScript, used in a production setting.\n\nExperience with the Onshape API or building integrations and apps beyond FeatureScript.\n\nExperience in a manufacturing, DFMA, or hardware product setting.\n\nFamiliarity with CAD-to-fabrication workflows (CAM, CNC).\n\nEQUAL OPPORTUNITY EMPLOYER\nReframe Systems is proud to be an Equal Opportunity Employer. All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, national origin, disability, protected veteran status, or any other characteristic protected by law.\nIf you believe you have the skills to thrive in this role, we encourage you to apply-even if you don't meet 100% of the listed requirements. At this time, we are only considering candidates who are authorized to work in the U.S. without the need for current or future visa sponsorship.","description_format":"text","description_chars":4356,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":2,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":{"level":"bachelor","optional":false},"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[{"name":"United States","iso":"US","kind":"country"}],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Robotics AI","Property Development","Construction Robotics","Construction"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-08-01T13:56:23Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":25,"band":"fade","label":"Fading","p_open":1,"p_active":0.57,"p_room":0.44,"age_days":83,"expected_fill_days":69,"reasons":["conf:2","win:tail","crowd:junior"],"computed_at":"2026-10-24T06:02:35Z"},"pay":{"stated_usd_annual":170000,"is_top_pay":true},"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/reframesystems-software-engineer-cad-automation-2","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/reframesystems-software-engineer-cad-automation-2.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-25T04:49:27Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":6451,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-10-26T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":720373},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=720373"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Freframesystems-software-engineer-cad-automation-2"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Freframesystems-software-engineer-cad-automation-2"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Freframesystems-software-engineer-cad-automation-2"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/reframesystems-software-engineer-cad-automation-2\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Freframesystems-software-engineer-cad-automation-2"}]}
