This role will work on systems involving industrial networking and communications and will have significant influence over software architecture decisions. The successful candidate will be someone with a proven, professional track record who we can trust to make sound architectural calls and see them through to a well-implemented result., * Full stack engineering expertise, ideally including: * Backend development in Python (e.g., building services, APIs, and data pipelines); FastAPI preferred * Front-end development with React (plus solid HTML/CSS/JavaScript fundamentals) * Working with relational and/or NoSQL databases, including schema design and query optimization; SQL preferred * Demonstrated experience designing software architecture for non-trivial systems, and the judgment to make and defend those design decisions * Practical experience with containerization (e.g., Docker, Kubernetes) in production or near-production settings * Experience building and maintaining CI/CD pipelines * Strong fundamentals in version control, automated testing (both backend and front-end), and code review practices * Experience leveraging AI agents to accelerate development * Ability to communicate clearly with both engineers and non-technical stakeholders * Ability to work well with evolving priorities in a collaborative, cross-disciplinary environment * Utilizes judgment in communication styles and behaviors; recognizes impact on other team members * Exhibits proficient written and verbal communication with customers both internal and external; including direct experience presenting technical work to customers * Proven adaptability and flexibility as a part of team * Ability to maintain excellent customer relationships both internal and external * Strong ability to plan and organize tasks, * Experience with the kind of industrial networking and communications used in manufacturing/IoT environments (e.g., MQTT, Sparkplug B, OPC UA, or similar protocols) * Familiarity with industrial automation and batch/sequential control * Experience with cloud infrastructure and infrastructure-as-code * Additional front-end/back-end experience such as TypeScript, Node.js, or state management libraries commonly used alongside React, * B.S. in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related discipline, or equivalent professional experience; we heavily weigh real-world industry experience * Advanced degree a plus but not required EXPERIENCE: * Three (3) to eight (8) years at a software-focused company with real, hands-on professional software engineering experience EXPORT CONTROLS - This position requires access to information and technology that is subject to U.S. export controls. To conform to U.S. export control regulations, applicant should be eligible for any required authorizations from the U.S. Government. ## Description * Build full stack applications end-to-end, from backend services and APIs to the front-end interfaces users interact with * Design and evolve software architecture for systems that integrate sensors, controllers, and industrial equipment on the shop floor * Build and maintain containerized services and the CI/CD pipelines that test, package, and deploy them * Contribute to architectural decisions, exercising sound engineering judgment on trade-offs (reliability, scalability, maintainability, security) * Collaborate with manufacturing process experts and other engineers to translate real-world requirements into robust software systems * Establish and uphold engineering best practices: code review, testing, documentation, and version control discipline * Mentor other engineers and communicate architectural intent clearly enough that others can build on it correctly * Present technical approaches and trade-offs to stakeholders and, where relevant, contribute to conference presentations, publications, or patents, * This role can be based in our Buffalo, NY or Columbus, OH facilities, fully remote, or a hybrid mix of both * For time spent on-site: laboratory/light production floor environment with ventilation, climate control, moderate lighting, and moderate noise level ## Related Videos - [Watch Tests Go Brrrr! : Getting Started with Cypress in ReactJS](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/282-watch-tests-go-brrrr-getting-started-with-cypress-in-reactjs) - [Docker Compose: Rediscovered](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1978-docker-compose-rediscovered) - [Leveraging Real time data in FSIs](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/806-leveraging-real-time-data-in-fsis) - [Robots are coming into the wild!
