Camfer is an innovative AI research lab that recently won both Y Combinator's internal demo day and OpenAI's o1 hackathon. They're building the future of mechanical engineering by creating AI agents that can autonomously design systems, source parts, and create manufacturing drawings through natural language commands.
As a Founding Research Engineer, you'll be at the forefront of developing cutting-edge AI models that can understand and manipulate 3D CAD designs. The role involves working on complex technical challenges, from building custom models for text-to-CAD generation to developing reinforcement learning frameworks for training agents.
The company has secured $4.8M in seed funding from prestigious investors including Y Combinator, Next47, Bloomberg Beta, and founders of successful companies like Dropbox and Airtable. The team consists of talented individuals with backgrounds from UC Berkeley, AWS, and Meta, who share a passion for CAD and design.
This is an exceptional opportunity for someone with strong algorithmic and deep learning skills who wants to make a significant impact in the intersection of AI and mechanical engineering. You'll have the autonomy to tackle challenging problems and work directly with the founding team in their San Francisco office.
