What you will be doing- Own technical architecture for internal manufacturing systems, MES workflows, integrations, and enterprise system boundaries
- Design and build production software for factory execution, including work orders, routing, material issue/consume, completion, serialization, genealogy, rework, and exception handling
- Define system boundaries across ERP, MES, QMS, CRM, internal applications, integrations, and operational data services
- Establish engineering standards for APIs, data models, permissions, audibility, observability, testing, release management, and operational reliability
- Build integration patterns that are reliable, supportable, and resilient to future system changes
- Partner directly with factory, quality, supply chain, warehouse, finance, and business systems stakeholders to translate operational complexity into simple, usable software
- Mentor future engineering hires and help shape the technical culture of the Manufacturing Systems team
You should have the following- 8+ years of professional software engineering experience, including significant backend, platform, internal tools, systems, or infrastructure work
- Experience designing, building, and shipping production software in ambiguous or fast-changing environments
- Strong hands-on coding ability and recent experience contributing to production systems
- Experience designing APIs, data models, service boundaries, integration patterns, and reliable system-to-system workflows
- Strong judgment around build-vs-buy decisions, technical tradeoffs, and long-term system maintainability
- Experience working with cross-functional stakeholders outside engineering, including operations, manufacturing, warehouse, supply chain, quality, finance, or business systems teams
- Ability to reason about permissions, auditability, traceability, genealogy, data ownership, error handling, observability, and supportability
- Ability to operate as the first senior technical leader in a new function: hands-on, practical, and comfortable without a large team around them
- Strong communication skills, including the ability to explain technical decisions clearly to non-technical stakeholders
- Ability to work onsite with operational teams and support a fast-moving manufacturing environment
Nice to have- Experience with MES, manufacturing execution, shop-floor systems, QMS, WMS, ERP, CRM, or enterprise integrations
- Experience in hardware, aerospace, defense, robotics, drones, logistics, electronics, or high-volume manufacturing environments
- Experience with serialization, genealogy, traceability, routing, work orders, rework, material consumption, barcode scanning, or warehouse/manufacturing workflows
- Experience with workflow systems, audit trails, RBAC, event-driven systems, message queues, ETL/ELT, CDC, or integration platforms
- Experience building software in compliance-sensitive, audit-heavy, or regulated environments
- Experience leading or mentoring engineers without needing to move fully into people management
