Role overview
Geomiq is a UK-based digital manufacturing platform that provides on-demand, custom part production for engineers, procurement teams, startups, and enterprise buyers through a global network of vetted manufacturing partners. Operating as a Manufacturing-as-a-Service (MaaS) marketplace, Geomiq’s online platform allows users to upload CAD designs, receive instant or rapid quotes, and place orders for precision mechanical parts produced via CNC machining, injection moulding (including liquid silicone rubber and plastic injection moulding), 3D printing, and sheet metal fabrication. The platform leverages proprietary AI- and machine-learning-powered systems to match jobs to available capacity across hundreds of manufacturers, optimize quoting, quality assurance, delivery risk, and supplier coordination, and provide design-for-manufacture (DFM) feedback to shorten lead times and increase predictability. Geomiq focuses on rapid prototyping and scalable production runs, aiming to digitize and streamline the entire manufacturing workflow from quote to delivery, increase transparency in traditionally opaque contract manufacturing, and help customers bring hardware products to market faster across industries such as aerospace, automotive, robotics, medical, and other industrial sectors.
What you will do

- Mentor a high-calibre team of engineers and data scientists, maintaining an elite bar for code quality and high-performance system architecture.
Who this is a fit for
- Possesses deep experience building and scaling production systems with Laravel and designing complex API-first architectures in a startup environment.

- Exhibits a pragmatic builder mindset, prioritizing business impact and engineering productivity over process-heavy management or pure people-leading responsibilities.
Why this role is remarkable
- Lead the digital transformation of a fragmented industry by building the “operating system for manufacturing” using modern AI and LLM agents.
- Join a high-growth, Fuel Ventures-backed startup serving prestigious clients like Brompton and Saint-Gobain with high autonomy and significant equity.
- Work in a technical-first culture where you solve real-world physical production problems by implementing sophisticated software and automation at scale.
