About Flow

Flow is “Github for hardware”. We’re building a core design/test collaboration platform for the hardware engineering industry. Flow helps Rockets, Cars, Aeroplanes and Nuclear reactors get to market years ahead of schedule and save billions in R&D costs. Our mission is to bring agile software development philosophies (CI/CD, pull/push, branching) to an industry that is desperate for a better solution. Flow is loved by some of the fastest-moving hardware teams in the world. They are solving fundamental problems in space travel, energy, and air transportation. You will get to learn about how these things are designed as well as help build the modern playbook for the entire industry. Flow has recently raised a Series A from one of the top VC funds in the world. Our angel investors include leadership from Stripe, Figma and Unity. We’ve found strong, early market traction and are looking for a design-minded engineer to help us scale up.
