Job description
Customer-Facing Delivery: Work on the factory floor alongside operators to scope workflows, prototype solutions, and deploy production-grade software on their infrastructure. * Full-Stack Ownership: Build and harden services using Python, TypeScript, React, and Postgres. * Infrastructure as Code: Own the full deployment lifecycle using Docker, K8s, and Terraform in complex, often air-gapped enterprise environments. * Engineering for Scale: Develop SDKs, adapters, and CLI tools that "productize" field learnings, merging them back into our core platform. * Operational Excellence: Instrument services, set reliability SLAs, and optimize for low-latency performance in high-stakes environments.
Requirements
Languages: Proficiency in Python and TypeScript/React is required. * Orchestration: Hands-on experience with Docker, Kubernetes, and Terraform. * DevEx: Familiarity with monorepo patterns (Turborepo/Nx), CI/CD, and automated testing. * Data: Experience with Postgres, REST/GraphQL, and message queues. * Nice to Have: Experience productionizing LLMs, latency optimization, and "golden path" development., 0-6+ Years Experience: We value talent and CS fundamentals over "years in a chair." High-potential new grads are encouraged to apply. * The "In-Person" Mindset: You thrive in high-intensity, physical environments. You are willing to relocate, travel frequently, and work long hours. * Ambiguity Specialist: You can walk into a noisy factory, listen to a non-technical manager, and translate their needs into a technical roadmap. * Mission-Driven: You are passionate about restoring American manufacturing.
