The Role

As our Software & Automation Engineer, you are the Architect of the R&D Factory. You won't just "automate tasks"; you will design the digital nervous system that connects our core physics solvers to our business operations. Your mission is to build a "self-driving" workflow where code, simulation, and hardware design move in a seamless, automated loop. This is a high-impact role for a "Builder" who can translate raw technical Proof of Concepts (PoCs) into robust, production-grade software.

Key Responsibilities

  • Technical PoC Implementation: Take raw engineering concepts and "Smartfins"
  • prototypes and turn them into functional, high-performance code in Python and C++
  • .Architect the Workflow: Design and maintain the middleware and custom API-driven workflows (Jira, Slack, Autodesk, AWS, internal DBs) that keep our hardware and software teams in perfect sync.
  • Build the "Digital Nervous System": Develop modular, OOP-based frameworks in Python and C++ that automate everything from simulation triggers to software testing.
  • Deploy Intelligent Automation: Integrate LLMs and AI-driven agents into our task management systems to turn raw thermal data into actionable engineering insights.
  • Own the Pipeline: Maintain and evolve our CI/CD pipelines and automated testing suites, ensuring our R&D team can ship "physics-heavy" code with total confidence.

What You Bring

The Essentials:

  • Educational Foundation: An MSc in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related field with a strong mathematical lean.
  • Polyglot Developer: Deep mastery of Python and a strong working knowledge of C++.
  • You understand when to use the flexibility of the former and the performance of the latter.
  • Architectural Rigor: A strong grasp of SOLID principles and Clean Architecture; you write code that is modular, readable, and built for a high-growth production environment.
  • Physics Affinity: An active interest or background in heat transfer and thermodynamics. You don't need to be a thermal engineer, but you must speak or be willing to learn the language of "Conjugate Heat Transfer.
  • The "Builder" Spirit: You thrive on taking a "half-baked" technical idea and engineering it into a robust, working Proof of Concept.

The "Extra Mile":

  • Experience with CI/CD tools and building robust automated testing frameworks.
  • Experience with AWS/Microsoft Azure/GCP and containerization (Docker/Kubernetes)
    • Hands-on experience implementing LLM-based tools or agents in a production environment.
    • Experience with API-first design and connecting disparate enterprise platforms.
    • Familiarity with CFD frameworks or CAD automation.

Why Join Us?

  • Design at the Inflection Point: You are joining at the exact moment we are scaling our internal "factory. " You will have a blank canvas to build the systems you've always wanted.
  • No Red Tape: We move at the speed of the hardware we cool. If you have a better way to automate a process, you own the implementation from day one.
  • High-Visibility Impact: Your code will be the "glue" that allows our thermal breakthroughs to reach global data centers faster.
  • The Culture: We are a lean team of elite engineers who value "Clean Code" as much as "Deep Physics.
