Software Engineer — Geometry & Spatial Systems

Lumicity
Oakland, California, United StatesFull-timePosted Sep 18, 2026

About the role

We’re building design-automation software that turns complex engineering problems into reliable, high-performance systems. The core work is geometric and algorithmic: representing shapes, reasoning about space, generating and updating geometry, and making those systems fast enough for production.

You do not need domain experience in our industry. We care about strong fundamentals and a track record of owning hard technical systems.

What you’ll work on

Geometry generation, spatial queries, and constraint-driven layout

Algorithms for placement, routing, collision/clearance, and shape operations

High-performance implementations and tight simulation / solver integration

Owning a product area from prototype through production

Core skills we’re looking for

Strong C++

Solid algorithms and data structures (graphs, trees, spatial structures)

Comfort with geometry, linear algebra, or physics-style math

Experience shipping production software, not just research prototypes

Strong pluses (any one of these is enough)

Computational geometry, mesh generation, or CAD/CAE systems

Game engine / physics / collision / pathing / real-time 3D

Constraint solving or optimization

High-performance or parallel systems

Simulation, robotics, or digital-twin geometry pipelines

Nice to have

Python for tooling and prototyping

Experience in a small team where you own problems end to end
