The platform spans both cloud infrastructure and physical client-server infrastructure deployed across our manufacturing facilities, and you will own the technical vision, architecture, and roadmap across the full stack. Working closely with hardware design, test engineering, operations, data analytics, and reliability teams, you will translate complex, cross-functional requirements into a cohesive software architecture that drives manufacturing efficiency, quality, and scale. Responsibilities * Define and own the technical architecture and long-term roadmap for the manufacturing test software platform, including test execution frameworks, user interfaces, distributed data storage, cloud services, on-site client-server systems, and reporting. * Lead, mentor, and grow a team of Full Stack Engineers, setting technical standards for code quality, design patterns, testing, documentation, and operational excellence. * Partner with hardware engineers, test developers, data engineers, operations, and reliability teams to translate business and engineering requirements into clear, scalable software designs. * Drive key architectural decisions across the stack - from front-end frameworks and API design to database schemas, distributed data synchronization, cloud deployments, and on-prem infrastructure across multiple manufacturing facilities. * Conduct design and code reviews, guide technical trade-offs, and ensure the team is building secure, reliable, and maintainable systems. * Collaborate with engineering leadership on planning, prioritization, and delivery commitments, and represent the platform in cross-functional technical discussions. * Identify opportunities to improve manufacturing efficiency, quality, and scalability through better tooling, automation, data infrastructure, and platform capabilities. ## Related Videos - [Leveraging Real time data in FSIs](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/806-leveraging-real-time-data-in-fsis) - [The Resilience of the World Wide Web](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1281-the-resilience-of-the-world-wide-web) - [Reducing LLM Calls with Vector Search Patterns - Raphael De Lio (Redis)](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1714-reducing-llm-calls-with-vector-search-patterns-raphael-de-lio-redis) - [More efficient software for more efficient microchips](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1164-more-efficient-software-for-more-efficient-microchips) - [NoLoJS - Avoiding JavaScript Cruft with HTML and CSS - Aaron T.
