Implement backend services APIs, integrations, and product infrastructure that support education product features and platform experiences
Move quickly from prototype to production, balancing speed, quality, maintainability, and user impact
Integrate and productize ML/AI solutions in close collaboration with digital experience and platform engineering teams
Build and maintain automation, plugins or SDKs for CAD platforms (e.g., Fusion , Revit, 3DS Max, Maya ), including tooling to support reproducible experiments and product delivery
Work across product and engineering boundaries, including lightweight frontend integration, data pipelines, service orchestration, experimentation tooling, or internal product workflows when needed
Work with CI/CD systems (Jenkins, GitHub Actions) and containerized deployments (Docker ), and contribute to observability and reliability of services
Write robust, well-tested code and participate actively in code reviews and design discussions; follow security and data-handling best practices
Collaborate closely with product managers, designers, researchers, frontend engineers, ML engineers, and platform teams to turn ambiguous problems into shipped features
Document designs, APIs, runbooks and hand-off materials to product teams, and help onboard other engineers to the codebase
Contribute to team culture by sharing knowledge, and promoting reproducible engineering practices
Requirements
Bachelor's degree in Computer Science , Software Engineering or equivalent practical experience
3+ years of professional software engineering experience (or equivalent)
Strong programming skills in Python and/or C++; experience writing production-quality code and libraries
U nderstanding of Full-Stack development workflows/ processes
Able to utilise AI coding tools for increased velocity
Experience with containerization (Docker) and version control (Git)
Proven ability to integrate with CI/CD pipelines and maintain testable, maintainable code
Ability to work cross-functionally with product managers, designers, researchers, ML engineers, platform engineers, or other technical teams to ship features
Strong debugging, problem-solving skills and attention to detail
Excellent communication skills and ability to collaborate in a distributed team
Experience working on CAD or 3D geometry systems (meshes, B-Reps, geometry kernels) or building plugins/automation for CAD platforms (e.g., Fusion, Revit, AutoCAD , Maya )
Knowledge of OpenCascade or other geometry libraries
Experience with cloud infrastructure (AWS) and deploying/monitoring services in the cloud
Front-end familiarity (JavaScript, React/Next.js) for engineers who contribute to product-facing UI elements
Understanding of software architecture and design patterns for scalable systems
Experience translating prototypes, research ideas, or ambiguous product concepts into production-ready implementations
Prior exposure to education environments and the workflow of translating prototypes to product-ready implementations
The Ideal Candidate
Product-minded: You care about the user, the problem, and whether the thing you build actually works in the real world
Pragmatic and hands-on - able to move quickly from prototype to production-quality implementation, while maintaining good engineering judgment
Curious : You are willing to learn new systems, tools, product areas, or technical domains to move the work forward
Passionate about education, geometry and 3D data
Collaborative and communicative - you explain technical trade-offs clearly and help drive consensus
