Requirements
  • Minimum 4 years of experience in software development with a focus on geometry and design
  • Strong knowledge on interfacing methods for machinery, robotics, slicer, non-planar 3D printing
  • Mastery of digital design tools such as SideFX Houdini, Rhino or Grasshopper
  • Research experience in computational geometry, computational fabrication, computational intelligence, computational dynamics, or related fields
  • Mastery in programming (Python and/or C++23) and proven proficiency in libraries of the application domains mentioned above (for example libigl, fenics, pytorch etc.)
  • Proficiency in university-level linear algebra and multivariable calculus
  • Strong understanding of artistic fundamentals of composition, form, and color
  • Strong commitment to the team; maintains positive working relationships with diverse people, including internal team and external partners
  • Embodies ethics and integrity in all work, respecting both company and broader community policies in all conduct
  • Open to work across disciplines and learn new skills and tools
Responsibilities
  • Develop computational design processes in software applications and optimization tools with the focus on interfacing with industrial machinery and custom developed prototypes
  • Simulation: for machine motion and material prediction
  • Conception: Create prototypes, models, and pre-visualizations of computational design embodiments and methods to guide design processes and decision-making within the team
  • Research: Conduct research to enable and support projects through computational design technologies. Research is integrated to specific projects or facilitates the development of computational design processes used across projects
  • Implementation: Realize design concepts by using computational methods to design embodiments and, further, implement novel computational design processes that generate embodiments (e.g., 3D models, fabrication descriptions, machine interfaces, software, scripts)
  • Visualization: Develop 3D renderings and illustrations to inform and express research and design concepts to the team, clients, and the public
  • Collaborate with a multidisciplinary team of engineers, biologists, and designers
  • Communicate ideas, work, and progress clearly, including by engaging in team meetings, presentations, and other creative communication outlets
Desired Qualifications
  • Proficiency in real-time tools such as Touch Designer, Unreal Engine, or Unity is a plus

OXMAN is pioneering a new approach to product design by integrating technology and biology, with a focus on Nature-centric design likely involving biodesign, biomimicry, and advanced materials.
