Help define the future of hardware development by building a collaboration platform for circuit designs, enabling the next generation of smart vehicles, IoT devices, rockets, medical devices, robotics, 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!
We’re building on AllSpice’s ECAD-native translation layer and collaboration platform to build additional CAD design and review capabilities, like 3D file rendering, design reuse, and much more.
In this role, you will take a major ownership stake in our full-stack web application, which includes collaborating closely with Product Management to architect & implement complex data rendering, user management, and novel features for hardware engineering teams.
If you are passionate about sorting out complex software architecture decisions, working across multidisciplinary teams, and shipping great software, this could be a great role for you.
What will you do?This is a high-impact role that comes with lots of autonomy and requires a self-driven, collaborative person. You will be focused on owning major components of our application architecture, and should be able to:
Work closely with product management to architect & implement novel solutions for hardware engineers
Implement solutions that cross front-end, back-end, and infrastructure teams
Engage with open-source communities used in our software to upstream relevant changes, and influence key decisions
Own the software delivery process for the team, identifying and implementing possible improvements
Maintain a high level of technical quality through both process and mentorship
Optimize delivery & rendering of complex CAD documents (100k+ elements)
Implement a 3d rendering engine for PCBs
Design scalable APIs and data models for CAD documents stored in Git repositories
Gitea application soft fork
Playwright for e2e testing
GitHub actions for CI/CD
Docker Swarm & Terraform for deployment
AWS
Postgres DB
Our ideal candidate should have the following:
8+ years of software engineering experience
Bachelor’s degree or higher in a technology-related field
Project management skills with ability to lead and collaborate with varied stakeholders, from engineers to customers, to move projects forward
Experience managing software projects using tools such as JIRA, Notion, or a similar issue-tracking system
Can think in terms of the big picture but deliver on the details
Ability to manage ambiguity gracefully, autonomy, and confidence in being self-directed
You don’t necessarily have to be proficient in all of these, but the more you know, the better:
Go, TypeScript, Vue and Python
Common Web Architectures + interfaces
Familiarity with low-level Git commands and data storage
Docker and Kubernetes
Supportive and smart colleagues, flexible work, opportunity to make a big impact, competitive salary & equity, health, dental, vision, generous PTO, home office stipend.

What We Do
What if we could design hardware with the ease and speed of software?
AllSpice is building the first ever developer-led platform for collaborating on and seamlessly validating hardware designs.
The world around us is enabled by novel circuit designs. Consider the seemingly trivial act of hailing a taxi from the comfort of your home. This simple process (for you) relies on a 3 million light-emitting diode display with a user interface that is logically routed to a capacitive sensor capable of tracking your finger at sub-millimeter resolution, an antenna capable of transmitting to a radio tower kilometers away at a rate of 20 Gb/s, repeated 35,000 km to a satellite, which is able to use it’s own integrated sensors and drivers to maintain geosynchronous orbit over decades without human interference.
The infrastructure we've taken for granted wasn't designed overnight and isn't staying put. It's constantly evolving to enable the next generation of life-changing products. But this evolution is currently hamstrung by incumbent and proprietary development infrastructure built for waterfall project management (mostly in the 90s), requiring manual pdf exports, emails, and in-person meetings at each design revision. The next generate of human innovation, like putting the first human colonies on Mars, requires a step-change in how hardware designs are managed. At AllSpice, we've experienced this problem as hardware engineers and we've seen the solutions as software leaders.
Today, AllSpice Hub is allowing electrical engineering teams to dramatically accelerate their development by enabling a truly agile workflow. They can seamlessly push a new design update in git, open a design review, tag stakeholders, notify them by email and slack, all while AllSpice automatically collects review artifacts, like visual diffs and review checklists.

What now?
This is just the tip of the iceberg. Our users are adding collaborators from firmware, software, mechanical engineering, management, and logistics begging for even more ways connect their design data to revolutionize their workflow and connect their teams.
Why Work With Us
We encourage exploration and growth in all areas of our work. We never put a pin in something we don't understand. As a team, we set priorities more often than processes. We enjoy the freedom from overbearing bureaucracy that comes with being part of a small team. We're a remote-first team, and believe amazing progress can happen from anywhere.
