About The Position

Define the future of hardware development by building an AI agent for circuit designs, enabling the next generation of smart vehicles, robotics, rockets, IOT, medical devices, and much more. At AllSpice, we’re building the agile development environment for hardware designers, including a Git-friendly translation layer and automated CI/CD framework for native circuit designs – think GitHub/GitLab + Copilot for electronics. Read more about us in TechCrunch here, and our latest Series A announcement here! AllSpice’s ECAD-native translation layer, collaboration platform, and automated CI/CD test framework for hardware give us the perfect foundation to introduce generative AI in the electronics design process. We aim to provide generative AI tools to supercharge electrical engineering teams. This is an exciting opportunity to join an early-stage startup and work closely with our founding team. If you like pushing the boundaries of technology to solve real-world problems, sorting through ambiguity to define focused direction, and working with brilliant team members to achieve more than individual contributions, this role is for you!
