What we're looking for
Hanomi builds software that automatically generates 2D engineering drawings from 3D CAD models. We've raised venture funding, have paying manufacturing customers across India and internationally, and just shipped drawing automation to production. We're a team of 8 engineers moving fast toward scaling this to thousands of drawings per day. You'll work on real parts that go to real factory floors - where a wrong dimension means a scrapped part and a missed shipment. It's demanding work with real accountability, but if you're the kind of person who gets fired up by solving hard problems across multiple technical domains and seeing a team ship consistently, you'll fit right in.
We're looking for a person to lead engineering execution. This role is on-site at our Bengaluru office.
You'll work directly with our CTO to turn product priorities into shipped software. This isn't a management-from-a-distance role - you'll plan sprints and hold people accountable, but you'll also roll up your sleeves to debug, brainstorm algorithmic approaches, and review PRs with enough depth to catch when something doesn't fit.
Engineering Lead:
In this role, you will:
Own engineering execution across the team:
· Plan sprints, set timelines, track progress, and hold people accountable
· Run gate reviews before production deploys and flag risks before they become misses
· Coordinate between our algo team and platform team
· Be the person who makes sure things ship by being close enough to the work to know when something's going wrong
Roll up your sleeves and build alongside the team:
· Debug production issues together with engineers, not delegate and wait
· Brainstorm algorithmic approaches and review PRs deeply enough to catch integration issues
· Jump into the codebase when something's blocked, you're not above writing code to unblock a sprint
Bring technical depth across algorithms and platform:
· Understand mechanical engineering concepts well enough to question whether an approach makes sense for different manufacturing processes
· Have experience scaling platforms - deployment pipelines, reliability, monitoring, the infrastructure that keeps a product running for paying customers
· Ideally have worked on desktop applications or integrations with CAD software APIs
Make the team better over time:
· Give direct, specific feedback - including the uncomfortable kind
· Know when an engineer needs clearer specs vs more autonomy vs a push
· Identify process gaps and fix them without adding bureaucracy
Note given that we are a startup, the exact job match will depend on your skills and interest (there is always too much to do!).
Requirements:
· 5-7 years in software engineering, with experience leading teams of 5–10 engineers
· Strong Python - comfortable reading and contributing to algorithm code
· Experience scaling platforms that serve real customers with reliability requirements
· Exposure to mechanical engineering or CAD/PLM domains - you don't need to be a mech engineer, but you should understand what an engineering drawing represents and why correctness matters
· Desktop application development or API integrations with CAD software is a strong plus
· You still enjoy building - this is a hands-on leadership role where you're expected to contribute technically
· Startup experience preferred - you know the difference between useful process and process theater
Preferred Qualifications:
· Background in 3D / manufacturing
· Experience with computational geometry / 3D modelling workflows
· You've managed engineers who are deep specialists and earned their respect through technical credibility, not just title
· You use AI tools in your daily workflow - Claude Code, Cursor
