About this role

<h2 id="Senior-Mechanical-Engineer" data-renderer-start-pos="9649"><span style="font-size: 14pt;">SOFTWARE ENGINEER (FULL STACK ENTERPRISE)</span></h2> <p>Freeform builds AI-native manufacturing systems that unify software, hardware, and physics to produce industrial-scale parts at the speed of human ideation. By treating manufacturing as a single integrated system, we unlock a new era of innovation where complex hardware is designed, built, and scaled without limits.&nbsp;</p> <p><span data-contrast="auto">In this role, you will design and build the core platform that runs Freeform’s factories and connects every part of the business- from quoting to production to delivery. The system must handle large amounts of data, support many different factory processes, and provide end-to-end traceability from powder-in to finished parts-out. You’ll lead architecture and implementation, make foundational technical decisions, and work closely with engineers across disciplines to solve real, complex problems with your code.</span><span data-ccp-props="{"201341983":0,"335559739":0,"335559740":240}">&nbsp;</span></p> <p><span data-contrast="auto">3D printing experience&nbsp;is not required to&nbsp;be successful here -
