Builds AI tools for mechanical engineering
Spectral Labs is building foundation models for engineering physical systems. We're looking for research engineers to turn research ideas into experiments, and experiments into models that work on real CAD data: implementing architectures and training recipes, scaling distributed training, building evaluation harnesses, and designing how geometry becomes model input. You bring 0–2 years of experience building and training deep learning models, strong Python and PyTorch or JAX skills, and the fundamentals to understand why a run diverged, not only that it did. We're excited about people who can make an impact, whatever their background.
This is a fully in-person role at our office in SF. You must be currently based in the US to be eligible, and we are not able to sponsor visas for this role. Compensation and equity total $150–250k annually. Benefits include health insurance (with a 100%-premium option), dental, a 401(k) match, and company-expensed meals and commuting.
Builds AI tools for mechanical engineering
Spectral Labs builds AI software for mechanical engineering teams designing parts and assemblies for physical products. Its Quartz environment lets agents construct and revise engineering designs while engineers inspect proposals and decide which changes to keep. The platform works with editable design histories rather than just images or finished shapes, so engineers retain the sequence of operations behind a part and continue refining it in their existing design tools. The business markets software and deployment services through technical evaluations that establish integration needs and test representative design tasks. Founded in 2022, Spectral Labs is headquartered in San Francisco.
