Staff Software Engineer

How You'll Contribute

• Software Development and Technical Craft: You will design high-performance solutions that extend beyond a single org, establishing the organizational standards for how Xometry-AI is embedded into external PLM environments. You will advance our architectural framework to ensure it is extensible, scalable, and adheres to strict enterprise SLIs/SLOs.

• AI Fluency: You will lead the effort to integrate production ML pipelines into the application layer, ensuring the "science fiction speed" promised in our vision is realized through optimized model serving and real-time geometry analysis. In addition, you’ll champion AI-assisted development practices across the team, actively mentoring engineers on effective use of AI tools to accelerate delivery, improve code quality, and reduce toil.

• Problem Solving and Decision Making: You will solve significant and unique challenges regarding data gravity and security. You'll create formal networks between our partner's and Xometry’s engineering groups to develop new ways of conducting operations—specifically regarding "ring-fenced" data governance where part files remain securely within the partner's network infrastructure.

• Scope and Impact: You are responsible for establishing the strategic direction and leading the execution of this core integration. You will be a technical and business role model, ensuring that the integration of DFM (Manufacturability) and IQE (Pricing) AI engines creates a distinct, defensible edge for the partnership.

• Collaboration and Communication: You will facilitate technical discourse across the entire Xometry organization, leading to durable, well-documented decisions. As a primary point of contact for senior leadership, you will guide risk/reward conversations and champion cross-functional development across our marketplace and data science teams.

• Operational Excellence: You will define the reliability and security standards for our enterprise-grade deployments, whether partner-hosted or Xometry-hosted, ensuring seamless multi-tenant management.
