About the role
- nTop is pioneering the future of engineering design with our advanced software that pushes the boundaries of performance and delivers mission-critical components faster than ever before. We are transforming how engineers design complex geometries. With a focus on Aerospace & Defense where programs face an impossible reality: deliver next-gen aircraft
- faster, with fewer experts, and zero tolerance for failure. nTop changes how aircraft get designed. Our platform collapses months of configuration iteration into hours, letting teams explore thousands of validated variants instead of locking in the first concept. Teams cut development cycles by 50% and protect PWin with simulation-backed proposals. Defense
