Founding Engineer
About the Role
This is a founding engineer role at an early-stage hardware-meets-software startup building AI-assisted PCB design tooling and EDA automation for the full electronics development lifecycle. You will own core product from day one, working directly with the founding team to shape both technical direction and product strategy. The work sits at a rare intersection of software craft and hands-on electronics, and what you build will directly determine how fast hardware teams can move from idea to production.
What You'll Do
Build and ship AI-assisted PCB design tools and EDA automation features to real users.
Integrate manufacturing pipelines and own the end-to-end hardware-to-production workflow.
Take full ownership of full-stack problems, spanning backend systems and user-facing tooling.
Collaborate with the founding team to define product direction and technical strategy.
Ship quickly, iterate on user feedback, and clear whatever engineering blockers arise.
What We're Looking For
3+ years shipping software products, with at least one physical or hardware product shipped end-to-end to real users.
