ABOUT BACKFLIP

Backflip (backflip.ai) is a generative AI startup revolutionizing how engineers and designers create for the physical world. Founded by the team behind Markforged, we’re building AI-first tools that make 3D CAD as intuitive and fast as sketching on paper. Backed by a16z and NEA, we’ve raised a $30M Series A and built a deeply technical, mission-driven team of 15. Our goal is to empower one engineer to work at the speed of a hundred.

We are looking for a Machine Learning / Data Infrastructure Engineer to train and deploy frontier multimodal models for 3D CAD. In this role, you will work alongside ML researchers end to end on challenges like developing novel representations for complex 3D data, training models that generate structured design outputs, building scalable data pipelines, and delivering low-latency inference in production.
You will collaborate closely with AI research, product, and design to rapidly prototype and productionize features, helping define what state-of-the-art generative design looks like.
