About the job

Our mission is clear and staggeringly important: we're building the manufacturing operating system of the future from the ground up, one that’s engineered to enable manufacturers to focus on their craft, and that creates network effects as we grow. A beautiful, sophisticated quantum leap forward for the most important core industry in the world.

Manufacturing is important. It’s the fundamental industry on which everything else is built. We take it for granted. In 1989, 35% of the entire software industry was built for manufacturing. Since then, it has stagnated into incremental diminishing returns and exponentially increasing complexity through add-on services, hand holding, 3rd party software, and customization. We can only continue to add complexity for so much longer until the whole system collapses.

"Any intelligent fool can make things bigger and more complex. It takes a touch of genius and a lot of courage to move in the opposite direction." - Albert Einstein

Manufacturing is important. We must deliver a touch of technological genius to reintroduce simplicity, efficiency, and integration. Design is instrumental to that vision.

Values:

We are competitive yet humble

We value flexibility over specialization

We encourage autonomy over hierarchy

We pursue truth through self-critique

We seek the best answer even when it’s difficult
