Seattle, WA (onsite) / Full-time / hiring full-stack web software engineers, product managers, program managers, senior electrical engineers, mechanical engineers, UI/UX designers and a lot more...
We're building a desktop laser cutter/engraver that can create beautiful products in wood, leather, paper, acrylic and more. We are a fifth the cost of comparable products because we've offloaded much of the functionality to cloud software. Push a button, out come flat-pack wallets, lamps, board games, and anything else you can dream up. We're building a catalog of designs that can be customized and a materials store. We've got beta units in the field and users are loving them (and making amazing things).
Other Highlights:
* Largest 30-day crowdfunding campaign in history ($27.9M). We’ve since pre-sold a total of $50M or so.
* Recently closed a $22M Series B from Brad Feld/Foundry and True Ventures, and have ~56 employees.
* The three founders have manufactured hardware, sold companies, gone through YC, and built profitable businesses.
