Dirac provides BuildOS, a platform that converts CAD files and BOMs into physics-aware, animated 3D work instructions with embedded tooling and knowledge, integrating PLM/CAD with ERP/MES for manufacturing workflows.
<div class="content-intro"><p><sup><strong>About the Company</strong></sup></p> <p><sup>Dirac is on a mission to reindustrialize The West. American manufacturing is broken—burdened by inefficiency, bureaucracy, and outdated processes. We are pioneering Model-Based Manufacturing, where context-aware production planning informs design in real-time—eliminating the disconnect between engineering and manufacturing. Our platform automates what can be automated and captures tribal knowledge where automation falls short, creating a seamless system for building at scale. We're building the tools modern manufacturers need to move faster and build better, the pillars of a more abundant future.</sup></p> <p><sup>We are a mission-driven company of world-class engineers and operators with a culture of high trust, high agency, and high autonomy.</sup></p></div><div class="sc-dASMHb dmbqEy"> <div class="sc-kobgRX euGa-Da"> <div class="style__content___gPQW7"> <div class="style__margin-control___f8Us8"> <p><strong>Role Overview</strong></p> <p>As a Forward Deployed Manufacturing Engineer, you will work directly with manufacturing teams to translate real-world build processes into structured, scalable workflows within BuildOS.
