About Shapr3D

We’re on a mission to reinvent 3D design for the 21st century.

To achieve this, we’re completely reimagining legacy computer-aided design (CAD) tools and building an iconic, mobile-first product that will define the next 30 years of the industry. Over the past two years of high-speed growth, our App Store Editor’s Choice winning app has been regularly featured in Apple commercials. But what we’re most proud of is the love we receive from our global user base every day. Because at the end of the day Shapr3D is driven by our product, and our product is driven by our users.

Position

Shapr3D is on a mission to reinvent 3D design for the 21st century.

To achieve this, we’re completely reimagining legacy computer-aided design (CAD) tools with an iconic, mobile-first product. Over the past two years of high-speed growth, our Apple Design Award-winning app has been regularly featured in Apple Keynotes and commercials, and demoed in retail stores around the world. But what we’re most proud of is the global user base that uses our product every day. We’re backed by top European VCs Point9 Capital and Creandum, focusing our $6M Series A on scaling our team across the board.

By joining engineering at Shapr3D, you'll get the chance to build a world class product - one that's already used by hundreds of thousands of design professionals across the globe. Hence, well on its way to disrupting a 30 year old CAD industry. Oh, and it's rather satisfying when you see your app featured on apple.com. Yes. That's right. Shapr3D is one of those apps.

Besides constructing an amazing application, we are also working hard at Shapr3D on building a world-class engineering organization. In our Engineering VP's words: “our focus is on making sure that all our teams are empowered and incentivized to make decisions independently. People aren’t afraid of taking risks, setting ambitious goals, and in some cases, failing. We know how to learn from our mistakes.” (Akos Kapui, Engineering VP).

How would you contribute to the mission?

• Our growing number of teams take on larger initiatives and deliver the features end-to-end to customers. There are teams that work on supporting customers with new tools like 3D alignment of objects or adding support for keyboard and mouse. You will be joining one of the teams and working on major features that make a real difference
• We don’t have dedicated roles for specific tasks; every engineer is equally responsible for engineering design, implementation, and testing. Our engineers are driven to deliver high quality work and always aspiring to learn and grow on the job
• We are dedicated to continue creating superior products, which is why we invest a lot of time and energy into prototyping and user testing. Your desire to build magical user experiences will greatly help us to succeed in our mission. We recently released an adaptive user interface which is a great example of how you can simplify complexity through high quality design
• We work in an agile environment with a strong focus on well-structured code, testing, and continuous integration. We do our best to build sustainable code that enables high speed and high quality. Pragmatic decisions and approaches help us maintain a good balance between quality and speed 

A sneak peek into our stack...

• Our cross platform CAD engine is written in standard C++17
• For our iPadOS and macOS app we build our UI and application logic 100% Swift
• On Windows we ship our app as a Universal Windows App, so our application is written in in C# and XAML
• Our proprietary rendering engine is using Metal APIs on Apple devices while we use DirectX11 on Windows

Your qualification

• Knowledge of modern C++
• In-depth architectural design experience
• Computer science and math skills (meaning that you are not a mathematician but that you could for example, implement a complex algorithm from a piece of paper, and that you know basic linear algebra and geometry)
• Proven experience with writing high quality, testable, maintainable code
• Mobile development experience (ideally iOS) is a big plus

What we offer

• A down-to-earth culture and an opportunity to scale this thing up together
• The chance to build a word-class product and to learn from some of the best professionals in their field along the way
• Unconditional support for your professional development - be it reading a book or attending a course to grow your skills, it's on the house
• Relocation support if you’re not from Hungary
• 100% sick leave payment
• A generous healthcare package with Medicover (upon passing your probation)
• An iPad Pro and Ultimaker office 3D printer so you can play with the app
• A spacious office with a panoramic view of downtown Budapest
• One of the best coffee machines in town and well-stocked office snacks (including fruit, cereals, sweets, savories, a company Wolt account while we’re working remotely, and more)
