Vinci4d is an innovative company backed by Khosla and Eclipse Ventures, focused on revolutionizing hardware design through AI-powered solutions. They're building a co-pilot for hardware designers that can process highly ill-conditioned 500M degree of freedom calculations in just 60 seconds, without hallucinations.
The Graphics Software Engineer role is a critical position where you'll lead the development of cutting-edge visualization technologies. You'll be responsible for creating a system capable of rendering billions of polygons interactively in the browser, essentially building the "Google Earth for hardware design." The role combines advanced graphics programming with scientific computing visualizations.
The ideal candidate will bring 5+ years of experience in high-performance graphics and rendering, with expertise in various GPU technologies and frameworks. You'll work in a hybrid environment (3 days in-person) at their Palo Alto headquarters, which is conveniently located just 2 minutes from the Caltrain station.
The position offers competitive compensation ($180K-$220K base salary) plus equity, comprehensive benefits including health, dental, and 401k, and additional perks like provided meals on in-person days. This is an excellent opportunity for someone passionate about graphics engineering who wants to make a significant impact in the hardware design industry.
The role requires a unique combination of technical expertise in graphics programming, parallel computing, and optimization, along with the ability to work collaboratively with cross-functional teams. You'll be joining a company that values innovation, autonomy, and continuous learning, making it an ideal environment for someone who thrives on challenging technical problems and wants to reshape how engineers approach design.
