Motif is building an agent-native platform for how buildings are designed and built. The Modeling team owns the modeling experience end to end — the UI, the data model, and the algorithms behind every building model in Motif. We connect an intuitive interface to a robust data model and fast algorithms, turning each user action into a reliable, high-performance modeling operation in 3D. And we build it as a platform: the features we ship have to work end to end today and also provide the capabilities to extend them.
What you will do:
- Design, develop, and maintain high-performance applications in Rust, leveraging the language's strengths in safety, concurrency, and performance.
- Contribute across the stack as needed — React, TypeScript, WebAssembly.
- Partner with product managers and user experience designers to clarify requirements and to translate them to software features.
- Maintain necessary automated test coverage by implementing unit and integration tests.
What you bring:
- Understanding of 3d modeling domain as applied to architecture, mechanical design, game development or an adjacent field.
- 5+ years of experience developing complex, production-quality software products.
- Production-level Rust or other object-oriented development experience, with a strong understanding of memory management, concurrency, and performance optimization.
- Proficiency in at least one additional language (JavaScript, TypeScript) for contributing across the stack.
- Experience building web applications
- Experience using AI-assisted development tools in real production work.
- Excellent problem-solving, communication, and collaboration skills.
It would be great if you had:
- Understanding of design-by-composition and its applications in Rust.
- Experience with WebAssembly in a browser context — compiling Rust to WASM and integrating WASM modules into a JavaScript/TypeScript application.
- Experience in building and maintaining complex high-performance distributed systems
