Shapr3D is revolutionising the CAD industry with a product-led, bottom-up approach that’s transforming how the world’s most innovative engineering, design, and manufacturing teams create. From automotive and aerospace to industrial design and consumer technology, we’re empowering industries that shape the future.
As we scale globally, backed by Series B funding, we’re entering a pivotal stage in our journey. Our self-serve growth has been extraordinary, but what sets us apart is how we’re redefining enterprise relationships - bridging self-serve adoption with strategic partnerships that drive impact. This role is your opportunity to not just join a company at the forefront of CAD innovation but to actively shape a critical growth phase in a market powering 16% of the world’s GDP.
We’re looking for an experienced Engineering Manager to help lead our Core Modelling team and build the foundation of Shapr3D’s cutting-edge CAD platform. The Core Modelling Team is at the heart of Shapr3D’s product. The team works on the CAD engine, creating innovative features and capabilities that define the user experience across all platforms.
“Not many people know, but computer aided design (CAD) was one of the first use-cases of computers in the 1960s. Computation has become a lot more powerful since and CAD software continues to push these boundaries. We are solving problems that were not meant to be possible before. This requires such a profound understanding of technology and a persistent effort to learn more. It’s so fulfilling to see how much people grow along this journey.” - Ákos Kapui, CTO

How would you contribute to the mission?As an experienced engineer yourself, you would regularly review and challenge engineering design documents, establishing an environment where people can collaborate to resolve problems. You would build a team of engineers with professional excellence that can continuously release world-class products to customers
As part of the Engineering Leadership Team, you would also be responsible for strategic planning and delivering against those plans. You would act as a role model for software engineers in using leadership behaviors and creating a culture where people feel motivated
Our cross platform CAD engine is written in standard C++20
For our iPadOS and macOS app we build our UI and application logic in Swift
The Windows app is written in in C# and XAML and shipped as a Universal Windows App (UWP)
Our proprietary rendering engine is using Metal APIs on Apple devices while we use DirectX11 on Windows
In an ideal world you'll bring a bunch of these things to the table:
Previous work experience as a software engineering manager or a development lead for a core C++ team
Depth of knowledge in a wide spectrum of software engineering (computer architecture, operating systems, computer science, and algorithms)
Expertise in building engineering teams with high quality and high throughput
Know-how in managing and developing high-performing engineers and supporting people in their career growth
Hands-on development experience in C++
Experience with CAD is definitely a plus
And these will be true about you as they will help you thrive at Shapr3D:
Curiosity fuels your journey
You are dedicated to building products that break the mould
You like to take ownership of things and to learn from your mistakes
Use of constructive arguments to align the organization towards common goals
Desire and determination to succeed and denial of mediocrity
Users and data lie at the core of your technical decisions
Users and the product come first. Team next. And your ego last
The chance to:
become an owner of the fastest-growing design and manufacturing software startup with equity
grow exponentially by learning from the bests in their field (we have a top ProdEng team on a global scale)
challenge existing solutions and build the CAD of the future
A continuously reviewed generous benefit package (company stock option scheme, a generous private healthcare package, life and health insurance, gym subscription, transportation support... and many more)
Full relocation support if you’re not from Hungary
