Sr./Principal Product Manager
Define the future of hardware development by building an AI agent 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.

We’re building on AllSpice’s ECAD-native translation layer and collaboration platform to build additional CAD design and review capabilities, like 3D file rendering, design reuse, and much more.
