Sr. Technical Product Manager (Actions)
Define the future of hardware development by building an automation engine for circuit designs, enabling the next generation of smart vehicles, robotics, rockets, IOT, medical devices, and much more.
At AllSpice, we’re building the agile development environment for hardware designers, including a Git-friendly translation layer and automated CI/CD framework for native circuit designs – think GitHub/GitLab + Copilot for electronics.
Ask us about our latest fundraising round!
We’re building on AllSpice’s ECAD-native translation layer and collaboration platform to introduce an automated CI/CD framework for hardware development. Just as software teams have long seen the benefits of automated design validation, generated outputs, and deployment, we’ve supercharged electrical engineering teams with AllSpice Actions with the same building blocks.
This is an exciting opportunity to join an early-stage startup and work closely with our founding team. If your mind is tracing all of the ways circuit designers can automatically generate gerber files, check MCAD fit, alert for end-of-life components, generate wire and pin tables, and so much more, this role is for you!
