Staff Software Engineer

About the Company

Responsibilities

• ● Define and drive technical architecture for Manufacturing Production Solutions - make decisions on system design, scalability patterns, integration strategies, and platform vs. build tradeoffs that shape team execution
• ● Architect and implement complex distributed systems - build mission-critical services, APIs, and tooling that enable safe, fast delivery across manufacturing production workflows (work orders, scheduling, material tracking, capacity planning)
• ● Lead by example with engineering excellence - establish patterns through hands-on work: comprehensive testing, deployment safety (blue/green/canary), infrastructure as code, observability, and operational rigor
• ● Bridge product and platform teams - collaborate with Platform/Foundations to shape shared infrastructure based on Manufacturing needs while driving adoption of platform capabilities
• ● Partner across MES product teams - integrate Manufacturing Production Solutions into cohesive manufacturing experiences, evolve data models across production/quality/supply chain domains, and drive technical consensus on cross-cutting concerns
• ● Represent manufacturing domain technically - work with architecture, security, operations, and infrastructure teams to ensure production operations requirements influence broader technical decisions
• ● Raise the technical bar for the team - through rigorous code review, architecture discussions, establishing shared ownership models, and improving practices that balance velocity with correctness
• ● Remove friction and unblock execution - identify systemic technical issues, eliminate single points of failure, and create leverage through automation and improved tooling
• ● 12+ years of experience in a software engineering role building products in fast-paced environments
• ● Proven ability to influence technical direction across teams - drive architectural consensus, build alignment, and lead technical initiatives beyond a single team
• ● Experience working with large enterprise applications and platforms with high availability requirements
• ● Strong full-stack capabilities with expertise in modern web technologies - JavaScript/TypeScript, React, and web frameworks (Next.js, Remix, etc.)
• ● Systems thinking and domain translation - ability to understand manufacturing operations requirements and design scalable technical architectures that enable production workflows at enterprise scale
• ● Excellent communication skills, able to influence stakeholders, translate ambiguous manufacturing requirements and build cross-team alignment
• ● U.S. Person status is required as this position needs to access export controlled data

Requirements

• ● We encourage people from all backgrounds to apply but our tech stack uses AWS, Typescript, and React/Remix so familiarity with all of these tools will be particularly helpful
• ● Experience in hyper growth startup-like environments. Demonstrated successes in scaling and maturing software development processes, team culture and methods, and ability to balance short-term and long-term trade offs
• ● Manufacturing operations domain knowledge - experience with manufacturing execution systems (MES), enterprise resource planning (ERP), production scheduling systems, work order management, or supply chain management platforms
• ● Experience in defense, autonomy, robotics, or mission-critical systems (helpful but not required)
• ● Experience with AI/LLM integration - leveraging state-of-the-art models and agentic tooling in production software development
• ● Eligible to obtain and maintain a U.S. TS/SCI clearance
