About the Role
We are hiring a machine learning engineer to own the parametric design layer behind our products, translating expert clinical knowledge into automated CAD pipelines. This role bridges software engineering and product design, focusing on building systems that reliably and flexibly turn a reconstructed foot and clinical requirements into a manufacturable, custom device at scale.
Responsibilities
- Design and build parametric, procedural CAD pipelines that generate custom orthopedic devices from anatomical landmarks and clinical parameters.
- Partner with clinicians and design experts to extract domain knowledge and translate it into explicit parameter spaces, constraints, and rules that can be automated.
- Build a maintainable library of parametric components and design primitives that generalize across products and extend cleanly into new device categories.
- Collaborate with the AI team to define the interface between learned components and the rule-based CAD layer.
- Develop geometric tooling that produces clinically correct, manufacturable geometry.
- Drive geometry programmatically through CAD/geometry APIs and kernels, moving beyond GUI-based workflows toward high-throughput, automated modeling.
- Own the bridge from design to manufacturing, ensuring outputs are printable and meet quality requirements, and helping automate design QC.
Requirements
- 5+ years building parametric and procedural CAD systems, ideally in a product or manufacturing context.
- Strong programmatic CAD experience — scripting and automating geometry rather than driving a GUI.
- Solid command of geometric modeling fundamentals: NURBS, B-Rep, meshing, and surface/solid operations.
- Proficiency in Python, Typescript, C++ or any software programming language.
- A collaborative, translational mindset — comfortable sitting with non-engineers and turning fuzzy expert intuition into precise, parameterized systems.
- Ability to thrive in an early-stage, fast-moving environment where the problem space is still being defined.
