About the role

Our small team is composed of experts in electrical engineering, electromagnetic simulation, ML/AI, and high-performance computing (HPC).
We have raised $25 million in Series B funding from some of the very best and are charging full-speed toward our goal.
No matter where we come from, we're united by a common vision for the future and a core set of values we think will get us there: 1.

Build and extend integrations with CAD vendors' file formats and scripting systems.
Reverse-engineer proprietary binary and text-based formats, with support from senior engineers.
Help shape Quilter's internal PCB representation as we expand support for new tools.
Use-and help build-the next generation of agent-powered workflows for CAD reverse engineering.
Own features end-to-end: design, implementation, testing, rollout.
Solid fundamentals in design, testing, and debugging.
design, implementation, testing, rollout.
Build great things that help humans

3-7 years of software engineering experience, with meaningful backend or systems work.
Strong Python proficiency.
This is the language you'll spend nearly all your time in, and real expertise here matters more than anything else on this list.
A track record of writing clean, maintainable code in real production codebases.
Comfort with ambiguous, reverse-engineering-flavored problems: unfamiliar code, undocumented formats, weird edge cases.

General knowledge of binary formats.
Strong communication and high ownership in a fast-moving startup environment.
A little C or C++ - not required at all, but occasionally helpful for skimming vendor SDKs or binary formats.
Familiarity with PCB / EDA / CAD workflows or hardware tinkering.
Experience with binary or large-scale serialization formats (protobuf, custom binary, XML, JSON).
Cloud infra (AWS, Docker, Kubernetes, Terraform).
Open-source contributions in developer tooling, CAD, or simulation.
Nice to Have (genuinely nice-to-have - none of these are required, and we don't expect any one candidate to have most of them)
