Software Engineer (Python / C++) — ML Platform & Production Integration

Velo3D

Responsibilities

  • Productionize ML algorithms: Take validated Python prototypes from MLEs and implement equivalent, performant C++ modules suitable for integration into production printer software.
  • Integration and release support: Work with print software and embedded teams to integrate new algorithms, resolve build and runtime issues, and support release validation on hardware or representative test environments.
  • Testing and quality assurance: Design, implement, and execute test plans (unit, integration, and regression) to verify numerical correctness, edge cases, and parity between Python reference implementations and C++ production code.
  • Build ML infrastructure and tooling: Develop and maintain Python-based utilities and services that support MLE work—e.g., data download and cataloging, batch preprocessing, dataset versioning, pipeline orchestration, and operational scripts.
  • Improve data management workflows: Help structure how build sensor data is stored, indexed, retrieved (including from archival storage), and made available for training and evaluation.
  • Reduce engineering toil: Identify repetitive tasks in the ML workflow (data movement, labeling prep, evaluation runs) and automate them with well-documented, reliable tooling.
  • Partner with MLEs on specifications: Clarify interfaces, performance requirements, and acceptance criteria so prototypes can be handed off cleanly and integrated without ambiguity.

Requirements

  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related field.
  • 3+ years of professional software development experience.
  • Strong proficiency in Python for scripting, tooling, and data processing.
  • Strong proficiency in C++ for production software development.
  • Experience writing automated tests and executing structured test plans.
  • Experience with version control, code review, and working in a shared production codebase.
  • Ability to read and reason about ML or image-processing code written by others, even if model design is not your primary focus.
  • Clear written and verbal communication; comfortable working across ML and platform/software teams.

Nice to Haves

  • Experience porting algorithms from Python (NumPy, OpenCV, PyTorch) to optimized C++.
  • Familiarity with computer vision, image processing, or numerical computing libraries.
  • Experience with additive manufacturing, industrial IoT, or sensor data pipelines.
  • Experience with AWS or similar cloud storage and batch data workflows.
  • Familiarity with CMake, cross-platform builds, or embedded/edge deployment constraints.
  • Experience building internal developer tools, data catalogs, or ETL-style pipelines.
  • Exposure to CI/CD, static analysis, or performance profiling in C++ codebases.
