AI Builder Fellowship

North Bethesda, MD

Xometry (NASDAQ: XMTR) powers the industries of today and tomorrow by connecting the people with big ideas to the manufacturers who can bring them to life. Xometry’s digital marketplace gives manufacturers the critical resources they need to grow their business while also making it easy for buyers at Fortune 1000 companies to tap into global manufacturing capacity.

Location: Hybrid (3 days/week onsite in Waltham, MA or North Bethesda, MD)

Duration: 1 Year, Full-Time (with potential conversion to permanent FTE)

Compensation: Competitive salary + full benefits from the beginning

Application Window: July 9 - July 26

The Premise

Custom manufacturing is a $275B industry that still runs on phone calls, spreadsheets, and faxed drawings. Xometry is the marketplace turning quotes, supplier matching, and production into an AI-first software product.

The Machine Shop is our founding cohort of 5–8 elite builders. You won't be parked in a "learning track"—you will be deeply embedded in product and engineering pods shipping agentic workflows, ML quoting models, and vision-based quality tools to real aerospace, defense, and medical clients who measure success in microns.

Who We Are Looking For (Craft over Credentials)

  • The Public Shipper: Your side projects have more users than your last company's formal product documents.

  • The Non-Traditionalist: You taught yourself with AI tools and have a body of real work that speaks for itself. No CS degree required.

  • The Early-Career Accelerator: You have 1–3+ years of experience but are hitting bureaucratic bottlenecks. You want to ship to production every single week.

What We Expect

  • You’ve built and deployed something real with AI that you can demo end-to-end.

  • Comfortable using AI-assisted coding tools to iterate at high velocity.

  • Working knowledge of Python and/or modern scripting environments.

  • U.S. work authorization without current or future sponsorship.

Race & Ethnicity Definitions

If you believe you belong to any of the categories of protected veterans listed below, please indicate by making the appropriate selection. As a government contractor subject to the Vietnam Era Veterans Readjustment Assistance Act (VEVRAA), we request this information in order to measure the effectiveness of the outreach and positive recruitment efforts we undertake pursuant to VEVRAA. Classification of protected categories is as follows:

A "disabled veteran" is one of the following: a veteran of the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service who is entitled to compensation (or who but for the receipt of military retired pay would be entitled to compensation) under laws administered by the Secretary of Veterans Affairs; or a person who was discharged or released from active duty because of a service-connected disability.

A "recently separated veteran" means any veteran during the three-year period beginning on the date of such veteran's discharge or release from active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval, or air service.

An "active duty wartime or campaign badge veteran" means a veteran who served on active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service during a war, or in a campaign or expedition for which a campaign badge has been authorized under the laws administered by the Department of Defense.

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005
Expires 04/30/2026

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
