What you need

  • 6+ years of experience in a software engineering role building production systems
  • Strong expertise in backend software development with foundations in distributed systems and API design
  • Strong technical fluency in modern software architectures, APIs, distributed systems, CI/CD, and cloud or edge infrastructure
  • Proficiency in backend programming languages (e.g., Python, Go, Java, Rust)
  • Experience with database management systems including relational (PostgreSQL, MySQL) and NoSQL databases (MongoDB, Redis)
  • Strong understanding of RESTful API design, GraphQL, or gRPC for building scalable service interfaces

Nice to have

  • Experience in manufacturing, industrial, or OT-adjacent domains (MES, SCADA, PLC integration, factory automation, IoT)
  • Previous experience building backend systems that integrate with PLM (Teamcenter, Windchill), quality management systems, or CAD/CAM platforms
  • Experience with simulation frameworks, digital twin systems, or backend services supporting V&V automation
  • Background in systems that process and query 3D geometric data, point clouds, mesh data, or CAD models
  • Experience with event-driven architectures, message queues (Kafka, RabbitMQ, NATS), or stream processing frameworks

What you get

  • Comprehensive, competitive benefits package available at little to no cost to employees
  • Highly competitive equity grants included in the majority of full time offers

Worth weighing

  • No specific mention of the tech stack beyond backend programming languages and cloud platforms
  • Role involves on-call rotation which may affect work-life balance
  • Position requires U.S. Person status for access to export controlled data, which may limit candidate pool
