About the Company

Nox Metals is building the fastest raw metal supplier in America. We start with custom-cut aluminum blocks for CNC machining and use software and automation to cut lead times from days to seconds.

We’re a small, ambitious team based in Detroit. If you want to write code that moves real things, build industrial infrastructure, and solve hard supply chain problems, you'll fit right in.

Tech Stack

At Nox Metals, we build software that controls how metal moves through a factory. Quoting, scheduling, cutting, and shipping are all handled through code. We use AI to automate repetitive tasks like cut planning, inventory picking, and quality checks to turn hours of manual work into seconds.

Our stack includes React, Next.js, Python, Firebase, and Supabase. We also work with CAD tools and optimization logic. You’ll build tools that directly impact real-world operations and help manufacturers get metal faster.
