About The Position

We are looking for a Senior Software Developer who will work with an interdisciplinary team to design and implement Alloy’s software throughout its lifecycle. You are an expert C++ developer with experience in geometry-centric software, and have an informed point of view on how software is architected while being able to right-size solutions to an existing codebase. You will work to define, design, develop, implement, and maintain Alloy’s software suite. Your end-users are in the building, and there are many opportunities for rich collaboration. Strong communication, flexibility, and the desire to “wear many hats” will all be essential for your success here. You will be joining a team of startup veterans who are no strangers to hard tech.
