Senior/Staff/Principal Frontend Engineer

About Us:

Over one third of apparel produced is never sold: Topologic’s mission is to eliminate this disastrous overproduction and waste by producing exactly to demand. We remain in relative stealth.

To do that, we’re reinventing the stack of apparel fabrication, from CAD/CAM software to novel intelligent machines. We are attacking a massive $2T industry and are already generating B2B revenue. We are backed with $10m from leading VCs and CAD insiders (SolidWorks, Onshape) and just completed a highly oversubscribed round.

Responsibilities:

• Rapid prototyping of novel user interfaces

• Designing, implementing, testing and documenting complex, web-based features while integrating them as part of a larger online platform

• Collaborating with our mechanical, electrical, and process engineers inside and outside the company to develop our new processes

• Collaborating with industry experts inside and outside the company to ensure our systems meet customers needs

Requirements

• Substantial experience as a frontend or fullstack software engineer:

• Substantial experience with Typescript/ Javascript in industry, academic, or OSS

• Expertise in web development and UI frameworks (we use React, but others are relevant)

• Expertise designing and building complex systems and applications

• Experience implementing algorithms and datastructures in a low-level language like Rust or C++

Desired Skills & Experience (the more, the better, but not expected to have all)

• Relevant experience as a software engineer:

  • Experience as a technical lead

  • Expertise in profiling and optimization

  • Academic training in computer science, machine learning, or mathematics

  • Experience with the graphics pipeline using WebGL/WebGPU

  • Experience with WebAssembly

  • Manufacturing or industrial automation

  • Creative coding

• Professional attitude:

  • Collaborative and strong team spirit a must

  • Low ego and willingness to learn through giving and receiving feedback also a must

Benefits of Working with Us: 

• Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision benefits; 100% premiums covered*

• 401(k)*

• Meaningful equity

• 12 company holidays and unlimited PTO (enforced minimum of 15 days and more is encouraged)

Remote/Hybrid/Onsite work 

This position can be remote, hybrid, or onsite. Our lab and microfactory is located in Boston: if based outside Boston, we schedule quarterly trips onsite for in-person collaboration and engagement with our exciting physical processes.

Don’t meet every single requirement? 

Studies have shown that women and people of color are less likely to apply to jobs unless they meet every single qualification. We’re dedicated to building a diverse, inclusive and authentic workplace, so if you’re excited about this role but your past experience doesn’t align with every part of the job description, we encourage you to apply anyways.
