[Hiring] Software Engineer @CloudNC

Role Description

As we continue to expand our Machining Strategy team, we’re looking for passionate, R&D-oriented Software Engineers to help us push the boundaries of what’s possible in manufacturing automation.

The role will involve:

• Researching, designing, and developing novel algorithms and software systems.
• Enabling our AI to make smarter machining decisions — from optimizing toolpaths and cutting strategies to automating complex CAM workflows.
• Working closely with domain experts in manufacturing, data science, and software engineering to turn cutting-edge ideas into robust, production-ready solutions.

Qualifications

• Strong C++ programming skills with a focus on writing clean, performant, and maintainable code.
• Experience in algorithm design and implementation, especially in domains such as computational geometry and numerical methods.
• Solid understanding of data structures and algorithmic complexity, with the ability to reason about performance trade-offs.
• Collaborative mindset — able to work closely with multidisciplinary teams including manufacturing experts, data scientists, and software engineers.
• Excellent communication skills, capable of articulating complex technical ideas clearly and constructively.
• Degree (or equivalent experience) in Computer Science, Mathematics, Physics, Engineering, or a closely related field.

Requirements

• Background in computational geometry, CAD/CAM, CNC machining, or manufacturing process modelling.
• Familiarity with geometric kernels, CAD/CAM libraries, or simulation tools.
• Experience in high-performance computing, parallelisation, or GPU programming.
• Exposure to modern software practices such as CI/CD, code review, and automated testing.
• Experience with machine learning or optimisation techniques (e.g., reinforcement learning, heuristic optimisation, constraint solving).

Benefits

• Stock Options
• Annual Performance Equity Award
• 36 days of annual leave including public holidays
• Leading medical plan
• Life Insurance
• 4 Weeks paid Sabbatical leave every 4 years
• Enhanced primary, secondary and adoption parental pay & leave (maternity/paternity)
