Recruitment Background

At CADDi, our mission is to unleash the potential of manufacturing. To make this happen, we are developing and delivering an AI-powered data platform for the industry. We are delivering value not only to customers in Japan, but also across the US and ASEAN countries, and we are growing at a pace far exceeding the T2D3 benchmark. We believe we have what it takes to become one of the true global champion companies. To sustain this rapid growth and continue delivering value to an even greater number of customers worldwide, we are looking for talented individuals to join us in building the very core of our business—our product. In addition, our engineering organization is entering an exciting new phase, where we are opening the doors not only to Japanese-speaking professionals, but also to global talent from around the world. We’re seeking individuals with strong technical expertise and project management capabilities, as well as the leadership to help shape our engineering team as we move into this exciting new stage of growth. These materials are a great place to start if you want to understand who we are and what we do.

Job Responsibilities

You’ll be part of a fast-moving, entrepreneurial team building entirely new value from zero.
  • Lead the end-to-end development of the application from scratch, including technology selection, domain modeling, and overall architecture design.
  • Collaborate closely with cross-functional teams such as product managers, designers, and engineers across multiple teams to ensure successful delivery.
  • Play a key role in building a high-performing, globally-oriented engineering team that primarily operates in English.
