nTop generates and validates mission-ready geometry automatically, freeing engineers for the decisions that matter. Backed by Insight.
About the role
We're looking for an Engineering Manager to lead the team that sits at the beginning of everything nTop does: Modeling & Rendering . This team owns our core implicit modeling technology and the tools an engineer uses to create, modify, and visualize a model — whether they build it by hand in the application or generate it with an AI tool such as Astra or Fable. It also owns how those models flow into the broader ecosystem of CAD and PLM tools our customers already rely on.
What they're looking for
- 3+ years managing software engineers, with a track record of coaching senior individuals to higher performance, setting clear expectations, and having the direct conversations that come with the job
- A background in graphics, geometry, or a closely adjacent computational field. A PhD is not required, but you must play well with a team that lives deep in implicit geometry, GPU rendering, and computational math
- Fluency in C++, with the ability to read, reason about, and review code in a large, mature codebase. Rust experience is a strong plus
- A track record of structured project management across many concurrent topics: keeping work visible, prioritized, and finishing on the timelines you commit to
- Demonstrated adoption of AI-assisted development in a team you led, and a point of view on how it changes an engineering organization's tempo
- Experience managing a distributed team across US and European time zones
More about this role
nTop builds parametric design software for the hardest geometry problems in aerospace, defense, propulsion, and industrial energy. Our platform lets engineers define a design as a parametric program — not one aircraft or turbine, but every variant a program might need — and explore design spaces that were previously too large to search. The next step is generative: describe the part you need, and let AI produce a sophisticated, engineering-grade nTop model in minutes. We're building the product that makes that possible.

If the rest of nTop is a chain, this team is the first link, and the beating heart of what we've built and what we're building next.
