The role involves developing and updating 3D mesh processing algorithms and enhancing 2D geometric processing for laser path generation. Collaboration with engineers to solve software-related issues is essential.
Position Overview:
As a Software Engineer focused on Geometric Algorithms, you’ll help build the systems that turn complex geometry into real-world results. Our build setup stack works with large and intricate geometric data to analyze designs, highlight potential issues, generate supports, and create precise, geometry-driven lasing instructions. In this role, you’ll work hands-on with 2D and 3D geometry, applying geometric algorithms to meshes, polygons, and other piecewise linear models to solve challenging and meaningful problems.
Responsibilities
- Update existing and develop novel 3D mesh processing algorithms
- Understand and improve complex 2D geometric processing code for generating laser paths for printing parts
- Work with process and application engineers who use the software to understand their problems and suggest novel solutions
Requirements
- Extensive experience with C++
- Experience with parallel computations
- Experience with geometry processing algorithms and computational geometry
Nice To Haves
- Familiarity with Qt
- Familiarity with Vtk
- Experience working with advanced users of their software

What you need to know about the Los Angeles Tech Scene
Los Angeles is a global leader in entertainment, so it’s no surprise that many of the biggest players in streaming, digital media and game development call the city home. But the city boasts plenty of non-entertainment innovation as well, with tech companies spanning verticals like AI, fintech, e-commerce and biotech. With major universities like Caltech, UCLA, USC and the nearby UC Irvine, the city has a steady supply of top-flight tech and engineering talent — not counting the graduates flocking to Los Angeles from across the world to enjoy its beaches, culture and year-round temperate climate.
Key Facts About Los Angeles Tech
- Number of Tech Workers: 375,800; 5.5% of overall workforce (2024 CompTIA survey)
- Major Tech Employers: Snap, Netflix, SpaceX, Disney, Google
- Key Industries: Artificial intelligence, adtech, media, software, game development
- Funding Landscape: $11.6 billion in venture capital funding in 2024 (Pitchbook)
- Notable Investors: Strong Ventures, Fifth Wall, Upfront Ventures, Mucker Capital, Kittyhawk Ventures
- Research Centers and Universities: California Institute of Technology, UCLA, University of Southern California, UC Irvine, Pepperdine, California Institute for Immunology and Immunotherapy, Center for Quantum Science and Engineering
