Software Engineer (3D Visualization Platform)

About this role

• Gecko Robotics’ Engineering teams build high-impact, customer-facing applications that power Cantilever, our software platform used to protect and modernize critical infrastructure. As a Software Engineer on the 3D Product team, you will develop and evolve a high-performance 3D visualization product that enables users to explore complex assets in extraordinary detail
• Our team builds and maintains a system that streams large-scale 3D data, including high-resolution models, to a web-based frontend. This system is already used to support important operational and strategic decisions within Cantilever and continues to expand in scope and capability
• You will work across the stack, contributing to backend services, frontend applications, and system architecture, while collaborating with product managers, Forward Deployment Engineers, and occasionally customers to ship intuitive, scalable solutions
• Build and extend a server-side rendering application that streams large-scale 3D models to a React frontend, including systems built on Unreal Engine
• Develop user-facing features that support complex 3D workflows across frontend and 3D technologies
• Design and maintain backend APIs and services that power 3D data ingestion, transformation, and delivery
• Solve technical challenges related to large model sizes (GB-scale), streaming performance, and data interoperability in real-world deployment environments
• Work on systems that operate in real-world or constrained environments, including deployments outside traditional cloud-only infrastructure, where reliability and performance are critical
• Expand the platform to support new and growing data types
• Take ownership of meaningful product initiatives from design through deployment
• Partner with Forward Deployment Engineers and occasionally customers to understand real-world use cases and translate them into product and technical solutions
• Contribute to infrastructure improvements that increase reliability, observa...
