About FixturFab

FixturFab built a design platform that uses generative Computer-Aided Design (CAD) technologies to automate the design of circuit board test fixtures. FixturFab's vision is to modernize hardware testing.

We're a small startup team with a single-digit number of full-time employees and several contractors. FixturFab is hiring a new team member to help us with the following:

• Improve the backend for the quoting and fixture design web application. Built with Django REST Framework and Vue.js.
• Help redefine and implement our CI/CD infrastructure. Currently built with GitLab CI/CD and hosted on Google Cloud Platform. We’ll likely rebuild this in AWS.
• Create Fusion360 and KiCAD plugins to help automate mechanical and electrical design processes.
• Developing GUI applications for running hardware functional test suites.

Responsibilities

You will help architect, build, and deploy various micro-services and software projects.

• Design and develop new features for our Django REST Framework Python application
• Write mockups, documentation, and API endpoints for a small frontend development team
• Help develop a test framework that integrates with the design platform and custom hardware test systems
• Learn how to use and integrate generative Computer-Aided Design (CAD) tools into our software
• Work directly with the founders to improve engineering and manufacturing processes

Qualifications

Ideally, you have a combination of the following experiences.

• You are a Python, and in general, an expert backend web developer
• You have designed and developed multiple backend software projects
• You are familiar with modern CI/CD practices.
• You’ve written and integrated APIs
