Mechanical design, the work done in CAD, is the rate-limiter for progress in the physical world. Despite decades of tooling, only a few million people can effectively design complex mechanical systems. But what if hundreds of millions could? What if creating something in the real world were as easy as imagining the use case, or sketching it on paper? Backflip is building a foundation model for mechanical design. We are unifying the world’s scattered engineering knowledge into an intelligent software copilot. Makers and builders use our intuitive and effortless design environment to give them the superpower of expert mechanical design skills.

Legitimate Backflip recruiters will never ask for money, fees, or financial account information before your first day.
