Principal Software Engineer at Nuix designing and developing enterprise security software. Collaborating with teams and directly working on endpoint agents in Reston office environment.
About the role
- Senior Software Engineer developing geometry and path planning capabilities for robotic sheet-metal forming platform. Collaborating with robotics and manufacturing teams to deliver impactful solutions.
Responsibilities
- Shape our geometry pipeline by leading the development of robust geometry ingestion and processing systems to transform complex CAD files into robot-ready parts.
- Innovate our path planning through the design and implementation of algorithms that expand the operational envelope of our robotic forming cells.
- Prototype and validate by rapidly testing new approaches while building high-quality, production-ready code for proven solutions.
- Bridge disciplines partnering with robotics and manufacturing engineers to troubleshoot, optimize, and validate geometry and path strategies on physical hardware.
- Model and simulate by building kinematic models, optimizers, and analysis tools to validate paths before they hit the robot floor.
- Uphold excellence through ensuring code quality with testing, documentation, and reviews aligned to Machina’s engineering standards.
Requirements
- MS or PhD. in Data Science, Computer Science, Machine Learning, Statistics, or a related field.
- 5+ years of experience in computational geometry, path planning, or related fields.
- Strong background in linear algebra, trigonometry, differential equations, and algorithm design.
- Proficiency in both Python and C++, with hands-on use of libraries such as Numpy (Python) or Eigen (C++).
- Proven ability to manipulate meshes, vectors, and transforms in 2D and 3D.
- Experience with CAD file formats (STEP, IGES) and graphics-adjacent work (GPU acceleration, ray tracing, geometry kernels).
- Familiarity with robotics, kinematics, or physics-based modeling is a strong plus.
- A track record of solving complex problems in fast-paced, iterative environments—independently and within teams.
- Excellent communication skills; able to explain technical concepts clearly to both engineers and non-engineers.
