With our cutting-edge technology, we are seeing customers innovate and manufacture parts with unmatched reliability, speed, and quality.

You’ll be joining a close-knit team, working with experts in 3D geometry, web technologies, Linux, and everything in between. We’ve had fun team activities where we escape rooms (real and virtual), play games, and cook delicious food. We also have a variety of employee-started communities at Carbon: baking, bootcamp, yoga, gaming, book club, diversity groups, and many more that you can participate in and maybe even start your own!

This role is based in our Sunnyvale, CA location and is onsite Mon - Friday.

• Experience designing and building production APIs (REST, gRPC, or similar) that other applications or clients consume
• Experience scaling a web application in production, whether that means performance, larger data volumes, or a growing user base

• Familiarity with cloud platforms (GCP preferred; AWS or Azure equivalent) and modern database architectures
