Job description
Generalist Software Engineer + Computer Vision-focused Software Engineer Lofty is creating 3D digital copies of real physical spaces. We've built software to ingest a novel type of 3D model and make it accessible to non-technical users through a web-based interface. We've written algorithms that help segment these 3D models into individual objects, the first step towards a future that we believe will include virtual real estate tours, virtual (simple) architecture and virtual interior design.
We're an engineering-focused company (2 of our 3 founders are technical) looking to double the size of our team. We're venture-backed by some of the top seed funds in Silicon Valley & New York. Now is the time to join if you've ever wanted to be part of a founding team, helping to set the culture of a company and the long-term architecture of our software.
A little bit about Lofty: We're startup veterans; while this is our first time all together as founders, we have strong opinions about how to build a healthy company and have years of experience recognizing bad & silly decisions. We will build a profitable business almost immediately, enabling us to control our own fate over time. Some technologies we currently use include: Ruby, Rails, Python, Blender, ActionScript, Javascript, AWS, CouchDB, Meteor, Heroku, Git We're looking for engineers who are: Smart, productive and tolerant of sarcasm Self-motivated and curious Interested in building a friendly, collaborative, and transparent work environment Happiest when building Going to develop awesome, interesting, non-obvious products & features with their 20% time If you have: A strong academic background in computer science OR no academic background in computer science but clear proficiency in software engineering Enthusiasm and experience playing around, or building with, a wide variety of 3D tools (e.g.
Blender, 3dsMax, Away3D, Three.js, Maya, etc.) Empathy towards both enterprise and consumer customers A scrappy, yet thoughtful, approach to getting things done Solid grounding in the fundamentals of writing elegant code For Computer Vision Focused Engineers: Knowledge of major methods of feature extraction, object recognition, 3D vision, tracking Demonstrated expertise in computer vision software tools, such as OpenCV, OpenGL, Cuda, GeForce, and graphics accelerators An ability to characterize and optimize the computational complexity of algorithms And you would like to: Be one of the first five employees who join our team Create a company culture with us Work on software across the stack Then you may receive an offer to join us, which would contain: Competitive salary and generous equity in our business Generous health coverage Equipment that you love Unlimited vacation time Hassle-free corporate policies A free 3D scan of your home, or another place that you cherish
