Position Description
The role
Join DSI's corporate Dev team as a software engineer supporting Off-Site Manufacturing (OSM). Based
at corporate, you will build and support web applications that help OSM teams manage scheduling,
materials, capacity, and other operational work.
You will work primarily with OSM project managers. Lane managers and shop leaders will provide
operational context, feedback, and validation. You will take ideas and prototypes through design,
implementation, testing, deployment, and support. This is a core software-engineering role with
production ownership-not a help-desk or departmental-automation position.
Travel is limited and purposeful. Expect more shop time during onboarding if useful; after that, travel is
occasional and driven by the work.
What you'll do
• Partner with OSM project managers to understand needs, define outcomes, and shape practical
solutions.
• Consult lane managers and shop leaders when their operational knowledge is needed.
• Administer the OSM GitHub organization, and own the standards, guardrails, and review process that
let domain experts contribute safely to the platform.
• Build and improve production web applications, primarily in TypeScript.
• Turn early concepts and prototypes into secure, maintainable software that people can rely on.
• Use the centralized data platform and the databases, APIs, and MCPs provided by the core team to
power those applications.
• Own OSM application delivery and maintenance: design, implementation, testing, deployment,
observability, documentation, user support, and issue triage. Coordinate with the help desk and core
platform teams when issues cross system boundaries.
• Work with the corporate Dev team on architecture, shared components, engineering standards, and
reusable solutions.
• Validate software with users and improve it based on evidence and feedback.
Position Requirements
What we need
Software Engineer - Off-Site Manufacturing
• 3-5 years of professional software-engineering experience and a track record of shipping and
supporting production software.
• Strong TypeScript and modern web-application experience. You can build and ship maintainable
web applications and consume existing APIs and services.
• Strong GitHub experience. You have used repositories, branches, pull requests, code review,
Issues, GitHub Actions, and releases in a team environment. You are comfortable with repository
access, branch protections, and practical review standards.
• Experience shipping reliable web applications, including user flows, authentication, accessibility,
testing, deployment, and error handling.
• Practical knowledge of CI/CD, logging, metrics, and evidence-based debugging.
• SQL and relational-data experience.
• Comfort with AI-assisted development tools, with the judgment to review their output and take
responsibility for the result.
• The ability to work directly with project managers and other non-technical partners, turning an
operational need into a clear software design.
• Willingness to work from corporate and make limited travel to OSM shops and DSI facilities in Texas,
with more travel possible during onboarding.
Nice to have
• Python experience, particularly for AI or data services.
• React, Next.js, or another modern TypeScript framework; Azure, containers, or infrastructure-as
code.
• Experience building AI/LLM applications or internal tools people actually adopted.
• Manufacturing, industrialized construction, fabrication, or production/operations experience.
How we work
We use modern development tools, including AI-assisted tooling, to move quickly while keeping the
quality bar high. We expect engineers to review code, test behavior, explain their decisions, and own
what ships.
Software that acts on company systems follows real governance: appropriate access, managed secrets,
testing, observability, and review before release. We value demonstrated work over titles or buzzwords.
What we offer
• A stable, established company with real commitment behind this work.
• A core software-engineering role with meaningful ownership of production software supporting OSM.
• A corporate home base in Buda, with limited, purposeful access to the shops where the work
happens.
• Competitive compensation and a full benefits package.
