Why Work at Ross Video? We have a great group of people working together to create and deliver cutting edge products that look amazing and are easy to use.

Who We Are

At Murmuration, we believe that America’s promise is shaped and reshaped by the best ideas and ideals of its communities, and the dreams of the people who believe in a better life for themselves, their families, and each other.

We help organizations build power in their communities in four key ways: we organize a network of values-aligned partners; we provide deep, data-driven insights into people, places, and perspectives; we develop tools that make organizing and engagement easy and more effective; and we offer services that strengthen our partners’ capacity to lead change in their communities.

We envision an America where every community has what it needs to help people lead healthy,

free, and dignified lives. We work to redesign the systems and structures we all depend on — how we learn, live, govern, and solve problems — so that they are just, equitable, resilient, and rooted in shared responsibility. By strengthening the ties that hold communities together, we aim for civic life defined by collective action and care, with effective leadership that truly represents everyone.

We are a collaborative, curious, and creative team of organizers, scientists, teachers, technologists, campaign veterans, and more who share the unwavering belief that we can use our gifts in service of transforming America — together.

We’ve built our team guided by the belief that the whole is greater than the sum of its parts. And so we support each other relentlessly — rallying together to face challenges the same way we celebrate each other’s wins.

About the Position

Do you see yourself as a mission-driven engineer who believes that great products emerge from strong teams? Do you thrive in inclusive, thoughtful environments where engineers hold themselves to high standards of technical excellence, ownership, and impact at scale?

We are seeking a Staff Software Engineer to contribute to one of our most ambitious efforts: building a new product from the ground up while raising the bar for how our entire engineering organization works.

Murmuration builds technology that helps our partner organizations strengthen civic engagement and organize more effectively in their communities. Our products weave together engagement, outreach, demographic, and voter data with intuitive applications that help partners better understand and act within the communities they serve. Our team is intentionally multidisciplinary and partner-focused. We succeed together by aligning planning, execution, and learning across engineering, product, design, research, data, and partner success. We build complex, data-driven systems that need to work reliably during critical moments, scale as our partners grow, and remain understandable and maintainable as communities and their needs evolve.

As a Staff Software Engineer, you will join the Explorer Team as we evolve the product

into general availability from its pilot implementation. Explorer is a data visualization product that facilitates political data exploration using interactive maps, charts, and exportable tables, supplemented by an NLP-powered search function.

On this small, close-knit team, you will establish the engineering patterns, operational foundations, and testing strategies needed to evolve Explorer into a secure, reliable, GA-ready platform. You and the team will build Explorer’s core platform and user experience, expanding a near-greenfield code base to design, build, and evolve secure backend services, interactive data visualizations, and responsive user interfaces. You will also produce high-quality documentation that improves knowledge sharing, onboarding, and the long-term maintainability of the product.

In addition to your Explorer work, you will serve as a staff engineer across multiple projects, applying your expertise to solving some of the organization’s most complex challenges.

This role is suited for a deeply experienced individual contributor whose technical judgment and engineering rigor raises the quality of deliverables across the entire organization. You excel in near-greenfield settings where product priorities and direction can shift rapidly. Your commitment to building inclusive, high-trust, high-performing teams is visible across the technology organization. And you believe, like we do, that how we build is just as important as  what we build.

Do you see yourself as a mission-driven engineer who believes that great products emerge from strong teams? Do you thrive in inclusive, thoughtful environments where engineers hold themselves to high standards of technical excellence, ownership, and impact at scale?

We are seeking a Staff Software Engineer to contribute to one of our most ambitious efforts: building a new product from the ground up while raising the bar for how our entire engineering organization works.

Murmuration builds technology that helps our partner organizations strengthen civic engagement and organize more effectively in their communities. Our products weave together engagement, outreach, demographic, and voter data with intuitive applications that help partners better understand and act within the communities they serve. Our team is intentionally multidisciplinary and partner-focused. We succeed together by aligning planning, execution, and learning across engineering, product, design, research, data, and partner success. We build complex, data-driven systems that need to work reliably during critical moments, scale as our partners grow, and remain understandable and maintainable as communities and their needs evolve.

As a Staff Software Engineer, you will join the Explorer Team as we evolve the product

into general availability from its pilot implementation. Explorer is a data visualization product that facilitates political data exploration using interactive maps, charts, and exportable tables, supplemented by an NLP-powered search function.

On this small, close-knit team, you will establish the engineering patterns, operational foundations, and testing strategies needed to evolve Explorer into a secure, reliable, GA-ready platform. You and the team will build Explorer’s core platform and user experience, expanding a near-greenfield code base to design, build, and evolve secure backend services, interactive data visualizations, and responsive user interfaces. You will also produce high-quality documentation that improves knowledge sharing, onboarding, and the long-term maintainability of the product.

In addition to your Explorer work, you will serve as a staff engineer across multiple projects, applying your expertise to solving some of the organization’s most complex challenges.

This role is suited for a deeply experienced individual contributor whose technical judgment and engineering rigor raises the quality of deliverables across the entire organization. You excel in near-greenfield settings where product priorities and direction can shift rapidly. Your commitment to building inclusive, high-trust, high-performing teams is visible across the technology organization. And you believe, like we do, that how we build is just as important as  what we build.

• Capacity to spearhead architectural decisions while maintaining a daily commitment to writing high-quality code.
• Excellent communication abilities, including effectively coordinating with vendors, evaluating technical trade-offs, and providing realistic timeline estimates.
• A high-ownership, low-ego approach to work with a strong drive to ship products.
• A Bachelor’s degree in a technical discipline like Computer Science is preferred, though we value significant practical experience over formal credentials.

Salary

• Base Compensation Range: $174,240-$261,360/yr
• 25% annual bonus target, paid quarterly
• Company equity in the form of RSUs

This is the compensation range for the role in the United States. Actual compensation may vary based on a candidate’s experience, skills, location, internal equity, and evolving business needs. While most offers are generally made within the middle of the range, final compensation is determined based on the factors above.

#LI-SB1 #LI-Hybrid

Xometry (NASDAQ: XMTR) powers the industries of today and tomorrow by connecting the people with big ideas to the manufacturers who can bring them to life. Xometry’s digital marketplace gives manufacturers the critical resources they need to grow their business while also making it easy for buyers at Fortune 1000 companies to tap into global manufacturing capacity.

Xometry is seeking a Principal Computational Engineer to set the multi-year technical direction for our 3D geometry and Design for Manufacturability (DFM) platform. You will be the senior individual contributor in this domain, owning the architecture that turns every customer-uploaded CAD model into a manufacturable, priced, and routed part across CNC, sheet metal, additive, injection molding, casting, and finishing processes. This role also serves as the technical architect for one of Xometry’s highest-leverage strategic initiatives: the embedded DFM AI + IQE integration with our partner. You will lead the integration of Xometry’s proprietary computational geometry and AI directly into the partner’s industrial software ecosystem — including Solid Edge, NX, Designcenter, and Teamcenter — integrated within the native DesignCenter environment to deliver real-time manufacturability feedback and pricing insights. The goal is a “science fiction speed” design-to-source digital thread from ideation to physical parts, with no export, no round-trip, and no translation loss. This is a hands-on role. You will write production C++ and Python that ships to millions of quotes per year, define the kernel and toolchain strategy, publish or patent novel methods where they create durable advantage, and raise the technical bar of the team through mentorship, design review, and hiring. The role requires demonstrated mastery of computational geometry, geometric modeling kernels, and the messy reality of consuming arbitrary customer CAD — STEP, IGES, X_T, JT, SLDPRT, CATPart, and DXF — at scale.

Responsibilities

• Technical Vision & Roadmap: Own and drive a multi-year technical roadmap for Xometry’s geometric reasoning stack — B-Rep ingestion and healing, feature recognition, DFM analysis, sub-process routing, geometric pricing signals, and downstream CAM/CAE integration — balancing research ambition with disciplined business value delivery.
• Partnership Integration (DFM AI + IQE): Serve as the technical architect for the embedded DFM AI + IQE track inside the partner’s ecosystem. Lead the integration of Xometry’s geometric and AI capabilities directly into Solid Edge, NX, Designcenter, and Teamcenter, operating directly on native 3D geometry through the Parasolid kernel. Define the integration architecture, the geometry contract between the two systems, the precision and latency budgets required for in-CAD real-time feedback, and the long-term roadmap for an end-to-end digital thread from designer intent to manufactured part.
• Geometric Kernel Architecture: Architect and personally implement the hardest components of the geometric kernel layer — robust intersection, offset, Boolean, projection, and trimming operations on NURBS curves and surfaces — plus the resilience layer that absorbs malformed CAD that arrives in the wild. Establish precision, robustness, and performance contracts (floating-point error budgets, predicate selection, tolerancing, numerical stability) that the rest of engineering builds on top of.
• DFM & Sub-Process Intelligence: Drive the methodology for combining classical computational geometry (B-Rep traversal, parametric surface analysis, medial axis, geodesic distance, curvature analysis) with modern learning-based approaches (graph neural networks on B-Reps, point-cloud and voxel encoders, differentiable geometry, neural implicit representations) to detect manufacturability risk across 12+ CNC sub-processes and the broader process catalog.
• Research-to-Production Translation: Translate research from computational geometry, computer-aided geometric design, and computational fabrication into shipped systems. Publish, patent, or open-source where doing so strengthens recruiting, partnerships, or the platform itself.
• Technical Leadership & Standards: Provide technical leadership across geometry, ML, and platform teams. Lead design reviews, define the technical interview bar, and partner with engineering leadership on hiring, calibration, and IC-track career progression. Mentor Staff, Senior, and mid-level engineers.
• Cross-Functional Leadership: Partner with Product, Manufacturing Engineering, Pricing, and Operations leadership to translate business outcomes (margin, lead time, yield, defect rate) into precisely specified geometric and algorithmic problems. Influence roadmaps, priorities, and resourcing across partner teams.
• External Representation: Represent Xometry externally — conferences, standards bodies, academic collaborations, technical reviews, and customer engagements — as the recognized technical authority for our DFM and geometry platform.

What You’ll Bring to Xometry

• Experience & Education: M.S. or PhD in applied mathematics, computer science, mechanical engineering, computational physics, or a closely related field. Typically 12+ years of progressive experience applying computational methods to geometry, CAD/CAE, or simulation problems, with a demonstrable record of shipped algorithms in commercial or production systems. PhD with 8+ years of relevant industry experience is equivalent.
• Geometric Modeling Mastery: Deep expertise across the geometric modeling stack — analytical geometry, parametric and free-form geometry (NURBS, etc.), trimmed surfaces, B-Rep topology, geometry healing and repair, robust predicates, and high-performance spatial data structures.
• Kernel & CAD Interoperability: Hands-on experience with one or more commercial or open geometric kernels — Parasolid, ACIS, CGM, Granite, ShapeManager, Open CASCADE / pythonOCC — including a working understanding of where each kernel fails on real-world inputs and how to compensate. Strong working knowledge of CAD interchange and translation: STEP (AP203/AP214/AP242), IGES, JT, Parasolid XT, native CATIA / NX / Creo / SolidWorks formats, DXF, and HOOPS Exchange / PRC.
• Technical Mastery: Expert-level C++ (C++14/17/20) with modern build systems (CMake), debugging (GDB, sanitizers), profiling, and binding generation (SWIG, pybind11). Strong Python for tooling, prototyping, and ML integration. Comfort with cloud platforms (AWS) for large-scale geometry processing and model training. Experiences or exposures of using code generation tools (e.g. Claude) with geometry engines. Ability to work in a large computational geometry codebase involving C++ and Python (numpy, numba) code.
• Mathematical Rigor: Rigorous grounding in linear algebra, multivariable and differential calculus, numerical methods, differential equations, and floating-point error analysis. Comfort with differential geometry and topology as it applies to surface and curve modeling.

• Build for scale – Architect and optimize reliable batch and streaming data pipelines, data models, and platforms that handle Xometry’s complex, high-volume data, including the real-time and event-driven flows that the partner integration depends on.
• Own the full lifecycle – Take end-to-end accountability for data engineering work from acquisition and transformation through to delivery, observability, and ongoing performance.
• Set the standard – Define and enforce best practices for data modeling, CI/CD, testing, and code quality across the data engineering function, including the contract-testing and schema-evolution discipline required when data crosses a partner boundary.
• Solve ambiguous problems – Navigate complex, cross-domain technical challenges, evaluate variable factors, and deliver solutions that meet both business and technical objectives.
• Develop multi-quarter roadmaps – Translate strategic priorities into concrete technical plans, working independently to determine methods and timelines.
• Collaborate broadly – Partner with engineers, product managers, data scientists, business stakeholders, and partner partner engineering teams to translate requirements into robust technical solutions.
• Mentor and elevate – Guide other engineers through design reviews, code reviews, and technical mentorship, raising the overall capability of the team.
• Evaluate and adopt – Stay current with the data engineering ecosystem and make informed recommendations on tools, platforms, and architectural patterns.

Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree in a STEM field (or equivalent experience) plus at least 5 years of experience in a data engineering related role, with demonstrated ownership of complex, large-scale data systems.
• Deep expertise with cloud data warehouses – Snowflake strongly preferred – including optimization, best practices, and performance tuning.
• Expert-level SQL and strong Python proficiency; comfort picking up additional languages as needed.
• Hands-on experience building and optimizing data pipelines, architectures, and data sets using modern tooling (dbt, Airbyte, Airflow, or similar).
• Demonstrated experience planning and implementing enterprise data architecture across multiple systems and domains, including integrations that cross organizational or partner boundaries.
• Working knowledge of queueing, batch and stream processing (e.g., Kafka, Spark, Kinesis), and highly scalable data stores (e.g., Apache Iceberg).
• Experience writing database-heavy services or APIs and designing for testability and maintainability.
• Deep understanding of CI/CD principles and demonstrated experience with automated testing, contract testing, and schema-evolution discipline in data pipelines.
• Strong grasp of the AWS data ecosystem and cloud-native infrastructure.
• Ability to operate independently on new and ambiguous assignments, determine methods and procedures, and communicate effectively at all levels of the organization — including with external partner engineering teams.
• Enterprise / partner integration experience – Prior work integrating with PLM, ERP, or large enterprise SaaS systems; partner Teamcenter experience (data model, BMIDE, Active Workspace APIs, AWC integrations) or comparable PLM exposure is a strong plus.
• Familiarity with data visualization tools (e.g., Looker, Streamlit).
• Experience with data governance, data quality frameworks, and observability tooling — especially in contexts where data flows across partner or tenant boundaries.
• Exposure to modern lakehouse or data mesh architectural patterns.
• Experience with infrastructure as code (IaC) frameworks (e.g., Terraform, CloudFormation).
• Experience with event-driven architecture, CDC pipelines, and low-latency operational data flows that feed back into a customer-facing UI.
• Experience in manufacturing, supply chain, or marketplace environments is a plus — but curiosity and drive matter more.

The estimated base salary range for new hires into this role is $180,000-$200,000.00 annually + commission depending on factors such as job-related skills, relevant experience, and location. We also offer a competitive benefits package, including 401(k) match, medical, dental and vision insurance; life and disability insurance; generous paid time off including vacation, sick leave, floating and fixed holidays, maternity and bonding leave; EAP, other wellbeing resources; and much more.

Xometry (NASDAQ: XMTR) powers the industries of today and tomorrow by connecting the people with big ideas to the manufacturers who can bring them to life. Xometry’s digital marketplace gives manufacturers the critical resources they need to grow their business while also making it easy for buyers at Fortune 1000 companies to tap into global manufacturing capacity.

Xometry is seeking a Principal Computational Engineer to set the multi-year technical direction for our 3D geometry and Design for Manufacturability (DFM) platform. You will be the senior individual contributor in this domain, owning the architecture that turns every customer-uploaded CAD model into a manufacturable, priced, and routed part across CNC, sheet metal, additive, injection molding, casting, and finishing processes. This role also serves as the technical architect for one of Xometry’s highest-leverage strategic initiatives: the embedded DFM AI + IQE integration with our partner. You will lead the integration of Xometry’s proprietary computational geometry and AI directly into the partner’s industrial software ecosystem — including Solid Edge, NX, Designcenter, and Teamcenter — integrated within the native DesignCenter environment to deliver real-time manufacturability feedback and pricing insights. The goal is a “science fiction speed” design-to-source digital thread from ideation to physical parts, with no export, no round-trip, and no translation loss. This is a hands-on role. You will write production C++ and Python that ships to millions of quotes per year, define the kernel and toolchain strategy, publish or patent novel methods where they create durable advantage, and raise the technical bar of the team through mentorship, design review, and hiring. The role requires demonstrated mastery of computational geometry, geometric modeling kernels, and the messy reality of consuming arbitrary customer CAD — STEP, IGES, X_T, JT, SLDPRT, CATPart, and DXF — at scale.

Responsibilities

• Technical Vision & Roadmap: Own and drive a multi-year technical roadmap for Xometry’s geometric reasoning stack — B-Rep ingestion and healing, feature recognition, DFM analysis, sub-process routing, geometric pricing signals, and downstream CAM/CAE integration — balancing research ambition with disciplined business value delivery.
• Partnership Integration (DFM AI + IQE): Serve as the technical architect for the embedded DFM AI + IQE track inside the partner’s ecosystem. Lead the integration of Xometry’s geometric and AI capabilities directly into Solid Edge, NX, Designcenter, and Teamcenter, operating directly on native 3D geometry through the Parasolid kernel. Define the integration architecture, the geometry contract between the two systems, the precision and latency budgets required for in-CAD real-time feedback, and the long-term roadmap for an end-to-end digital thread from designer intent to manufactured part.
• Geometric Kernel Architecture: Architect and personally implement the hardest components of the geometric kernel layer — robust intersection, offset, Boolean, projection, and trimming operations on NURBS curves and surfaces — plus the resilience layer that absorbs malformed CAD that arrives in the wild. Establish precision, robustness, and performance contracts (floating-point error budgets, predicate selection, tolerancing, numerical stability) that the rest of engineering builds on top of.
• DFM & Sub-Process Intelligence: Drive the methodology for combining classical computational geometry (B-Rep traversal, parametric surface analysis, medial axis, geodesic distance, curvature analysis) with modern learning-based approaches (graph neural networks on B-Reps, point-cloud and voxel encoders, differentiable geometry, neural implicit representations) to detect manufacturability risk across 12+ CNC sub-processes and the broader process catalog.
• Research-to-Production Translation: Translate research from computational geometry, computer-aided geometric design, and computational fabrication into shipped systems. Publish, patent, or open-source where doing so strengthens recruiting, partnerships, or the platform itself.
• Technical Leadership & Standards: Provide technical leadership across geometry, ML, and platform teams. Lead design reviews, define the technical interview bar, and partner with engineering leadership on hiring, calibration, and IC-track career progression. Mentor Staff, Senior, and mid-level engineers.
• Cross-Functional Leadership: Partner with Product, Manufacturing Engineering, Pricing, and Operations leadership to translate business outcomes (margin, lead time, yield, defect rate) into precisely specified geometric and algorithmic problems. Influence roadmaps, priorities, and resourcing across partner teams.
• External Representation: Represent Xometry externally — conferences, standards bodies, academic collaborations, technical reviews, and customer engagements — as the recognized technical authority for our DFM and geometry platform.

What You’ll Bring to Xometry

• Experience & Education: M.S. or PhD in applied mathematics, computer science, mechanical engineering, computational physics, or a closely related field. Typically 12+ years of progressive experience applying computational methods to geometry, CAD/CAE, or simulation problems, with a demonstrable record of shipped algorithms in commercial or production systems. PhD with 8+ years of relevant industry experience is equivalent.
• Geometric Modeling Mastery: Deep expertise across the geometric modeling stack — analytical geometry, parametric and free-form geometry (NURBS, etc.), trimmed surfaces, B-Rep topology, geometry healing and repair, robust predicates, and high-performance spatial data structures.
• Kernel & CAD Interoperability: Hands-on experience with one or more commercial or open geometric kernels — Parasolid, ACIS, CGM, Granite, ShapeManager, Open CASCADE / pythonOCC — including a working understanding of where each kernel fails on real-world inputs and how to compensate. Strong working knowledge of CAD interchange and translation: STEP (AP203/AP214/AP242), IGES, JT, Parasolid XT, native CATIA / NX / Creo / SolidWorks formats, DXF, and HOOPS Exchange / PRC.
• Technical Mastery: Expert-level C++ (C++14/17/20) with modern build systems (CMake), debugging (GDB, sanitizers), profiling, and binding generation (SWIG, pybind11). Strong Python for tooling, prototyping, and ML integration. Comfort with cloud platforms (AWS) for large-scale geometry processing and model training. Experiences or exposures of using code generation tools (e.g. Claude) with geometry engines. Ability to work in a large computational geometry codebase involving C++ and Python (numpy, numba) code.
• Mathematical Rigor: Rigorous grounding in linear algebra, multivariable and differential calculus, numerical methods, differential equations, and floating-point error analysis. Comfort with differential geometry and topology as it applies to surface and curve modeling.
• Recognized Track Record: Demonstrable record of research-to-production translation: peer-reviewed publications, issued patents, significant open-source contributions, or shipped commercial capabilities that you can point to and explain end-to-end.
• AI/ML Fluency: Familiarity with ML/AI methods relevant to geometry — graph neural networks on B-Reps (BRepGAT, BRepFormer, AAGNet, UV-Net), point-cloud / voxel / SDF encoders, neural implicit representations, NURBS-aware learning — and clear judgment about when classical methods beat learned ones.
