Job Description

This is a full-time opportunity based in the United States with a fast-growing B2B software company serving industrial and manufacturing customers. The team builds cloud-native applications leveraging modern backend services, frontend frameworks, and applied AI. This role sits at the intersection of engineering, customer delivery, and product architecture.

What makes this role unique is the level of ownership and exposure. The team is looking for an experienced engineer who enjoys solving ambiguous customer problems, translating business needs into technical designs, and shipping real solutions. You'll work closely with customers, sales, and product leaders while building systems that go into production-not proofs of concept that never ship. This is an excellent opportunity for someone who wants to grow into a technical leadership role while staying hands-on.
