• Work with product and sales teams to translate customer needs into technical solutions
• Design and implement geometry processing algorithms to develop and maintain advanced modeling, analysis, and manufacturing software features
• Participate in full software development life cycle (SDLC)
• Integrate software components into a fully functional software system
• Comply with project plans
• Prepare clear documentation as needed to prepare reports, presentations, etc.

Requirements:

• 5+ years of experience (or equivalent) as a professional software engineer
• 3+ years of experience or equivalent developing commercial C++ applications
• Master’s degree or higher in computer science, mathematics, or related field with a focus on geometry processing
• Strong geometry/mathematics background demonstrated via publications, industry projects, or masters thesis or similar projects
• Proven experience in C and C++
• Experience with a scripting language like JavaScript or Python and eagerness to learn other languages
• Experience with git or other modern version control systems
• A passion for robust development practices including test-driven development, continuous integration and agile methodologies
