Senior Application Engineer

Do you want to join the brightest team in tech where you can collaborate, nerd out, and build the future? 


What you will be doing:

Our User Software teams are building an ecosystem of local-first web applications that enable PassiveLogic’s autonomous systems platform. Our software applications enable users to collaboratively create physics-based models of the components from which autonomous systems are comprised, simulate the buildings in which autonomous systems will run, and generatively design autonomous systems with a human-centered interface to interact with their systems — no more black box AI.

At its core, our ecosystem is powered by Quantum, a schema for describing autonomous system Digital Twins, and DataSync, a real-time protocol for graph-based client/server data synchronization.

We use empathetic Human-Computer-Interface (HCI) principles in our design, and TypeScript, WebGL, SVG, and reactive dataflow in our code. As part of our long-term vision, we are developing constraint-based layout engines, AI-enabled generative design capabilities, and exploring the use of Swift compiled to WebAssembly to improve the usability of our code across many platforms.

Responsibilities:

  • Design and implement front-end architecture to support native-quality web applications for multi-platform deployment

  • Be a systems-level thinker who researches before they act and values sound processes and broad thinking

  • Contribute across teams to build our technology and celebrate our shared successes. Be impact-driven, seek to be a good employee, neighbor, and global citizen

  • Prioritize execution, stability, and velocity within our shared architecture. Focus on short-term wins, long-term vision, pride in the impact of our products, and delivering a “wow” customer experience

  • Nerd out about your craft
