• Collaborate with leading brands like Hyundai, NASA or Airbus towards a new era of automation efficiency and cross-team collaboration in product development.

• Benefit from a wide range of employee perks — including 20 days of PTO, health insurance and a 401 (k) savings plan

• We don't believe in one-fits-all solutions and therefore let you decide when & where to work (as long as you have a residency in the US).

• We’ll support you in setting up a productive home office and invite you to our flexible office place in Boston or Chicago to share expertise, and build camaraderie.

• Enjoy flexible public holidays and swap days off according to your values and beliefs.

• Spend time together with your colleagues during regular team events and off-sites (two big off-sites in Germany) 🌈

WHAT YOU NEED TO SUCCEED

Even if you don't meet these criteria perfectly but believe you have lots to bring to the role, we encourage you to apply. We know it's tough, but please keep in mind that you don't have to match all the listed requirements exactly to be considered for this role.

• You are located in/around Paris or Lyon.

• Technical background in the Computational, Automation or Mechanical Engineering field.

• Proven experience in working with customers, demonstrating strong communication skills and the ability to showcase business value with technical solutions.

• Experience with CAD/CAE tools (e.g. OptiStruct, Siemens NX, CATIA, ANSYS, Nastran, Abaqus, LS-DYNA etc.).

• Experience in C# and Python coding.

• You can juggle multiple priorities and thrive in a dynamic, fast-paced environment.

• You are fluent in English and enjoy collaborating with clients and explaining complex topics in a clear, engaging manner.

• If you already have working experience with Synera it’s a plus

P.S. Synera is a place where everyone can grow, and every voice is valued. So, however you identify and whatever background you bring with you, please apply if this is a role that would make you excited to come into work every day. We’re looking forward to learning how your perspective will bring something unique and valuable to our team 🌱

Why Synera?

We’re building the next generation of software for hardware - an Agentic AI platform that lets companies like Airbus, BMW, and NASA accelerate engineering work from days to hours.  Our customers use Synera to automate everything from CAD and simulation workflows to design-for-manufacturing checks and RFQ prep - without needing to write code from scratch.

Think of us as doing for engineering what the advent of CAD did decades ago: enabling a whole new way of working.  As PLM, CAD and CAE tools open up APIs, Synera gives teams the ability to build scalable, AI-augmented workflows that link these tools together.  We're not just streamlining old processes—we're helping engineers hand off repetitive work to automation and AI agents that understand their domain.

If you’re a solutions engineer who’s automated design or simulation processes, glued together tools with Python and felt the frustration of being the only one who could, Synera is the next step.  Join us at the leading edge.
