What are the responsibilities and job description for the Software Engineer, Geometry/Simulation (C++) position at Fabri?
About Fabri
Fabri is building a fully integrated digital foundry for high-speed precision metal casting. We combine additive manufacturing, custom process software, and advanced casting operations to deliver production-quality metal parts faster and more cost-effectively than traditional methods.
We are an early-stage, well-capitalized startup backed by top-tier investors and major customers. We have shipped our first customer parts and are seeing strong demand from aerospace and industrial customers.
During this stage of the company, the software team works directly with the foundry. This is an on-site role for someone who wants to build software that controls, improves, and scales real-world manufacturing.
The Role
We are looking for a Software Engineer, Geometry & Simulation to build the software systems that connect Fabri's digital manufacturing process end-to-end.
You will primarily work across manufacturing preparation, geometry processing, and simulation, developing software that transforms customer CAD models into manufacturable production workflows. Your work will include build preparation, manufacturability analysis, workflow automation, and machine/process integration. Some projects may involve robotics, AWS, databases, or applied data science, but we do not expect one person to be an expert in all of these areas.
The right candidate is a strong C engineer who enjoys ambiguous problems, physical systems, and wearing many hats. Python experience is a plus, but C will be your primary development language. You should be comfortable building reliable software around real-world processes, working directly with operators and engineers, and deciding what needs to be automated next.
You will report to the CTO and own important pieces of Fabri's manufacturing software stack.
What You'll Work On
Any of the following would be useful, but we do not expect candidates to have all of these skills. You will learn all of them on the job.
We are hoping for candidates who have experience with several of the following:
Fabri is an equal opportunity employer. We celebrate diversity and are committed to creating an inclusive environment for all employees. We foster an environment where safety and commitment to quality are central in everything we do.
