If you love triangles, software development, CAD/CAM, and the intersection of mechanical engineering with computer science, this may be the perfect role for you.
What’s in it for you?
Small Team, Big Impact
Our team is small and agile; as a core member, we will look to you for opinions and contributions that shape our engineering direction, product development practices, team culture, and the Fictiv organization.
<h1>Inspiring Customers</h1>
Our customers work on products that push the technological boundaries. You’ll help build the next level of complex, professional web-based 3D graphical applications. Help us shape the future of manufacturing by developing systems for analyzing (quoting, annotating, and correcting) CAD models for parts that will immediately become parts of cars, medical devices, toys, aerospace systems, and more.
<h1>Impact in this Role</h1>
Computational geometry engineers allow us to scale our operations and logistics past human limits. We do this through geometric analysis, feature detection, and design rule checks to automate and provide insight into manufacturing decisions. We share this data internally and with our manufacturing partners to improve the capabilities of our manufacturing network.
<h1>Work With Real-World Models for Real Applications</h1>
At Fictiv, we work collaboratively to deliver new features to our platform. You will work in small cross-functional teams to ship code early and often to ensure a rapid feedback loop between us and our customers. You and your team have autonomy to try out new development methodologies and technologies to meet team goals.
