Description For Founding Engineer

Camfer is an innovative startup building the world's first AI mechanical engineer, backed by Y Combinator and having raised a $4.8M seed round. The company is developing tools that allow engineers to use natural language to perform CAD tasks end-to-end, similar to having an AI assistant like Jarvis for engineering work.

As a Founding Engineer at Camfer, you'll be at the forefront of revolutionizing how people interact with CAD tools. The role offers significant autonomy and the opportunity to work on cutting-edge technology that combines AI with mechanical engineering. You'll be joining a small, young team of software developers and researchers who share a passion for CAD and design.

The company has already achieved notable success, winning both Y Combinator's internal demo day and OpenAI's o1 hackathon. Their first product enables engineers to generate feature-rich CAD models in SolidWorks and Onshape using text, images, and mechanical drawings, with pilot users already including companies like Physical Intelligence.

The team consists of FRC world champions, UC Berkeley alumni/researchers, and former employees from AWS and Meta. The company is backed by prestigious investors including Y Combinator, Next47, Bloomberg Beta, Octave Fund, and founders of Dropbox, Airtable, and Clari.

Working at Camfer means being part of a transformative journey in mechanical engineering and AI, with the opportunity to shape the future of CAD tools. The role offers both technical challenges and the excitement of building something revolutionary in a well-funded, early-stage startup environment.
