Full Job Description
Your Job

Georgia-Pacific's Software Engineering & Integration (SE&I) team is looking for a Sr. Software Engineer to help solve environmental and sustainability challenges through modern software engineering, AI, and data-driven decision making.

You will partner with Environmental business leaders, engineers, and compliance teams to take ideas that prove their value and make them systems Georgia-Pacific can operate at scale. You will own architecture, security, and production readiness - designing solutions that are reliable, supportable, and built to grow.

You will work alongside environmental subject matter experts on problems such as permit intelligence, compliance workflows, data quality, environmental reporting, and AI-powered agents - and help take those capabilities from a first working version to enterprise scale.

This role is based at our HQ in Atlanta, GA with an expectation of three (3) days in the office per week.

Our Team

We are software engineers, data practitioners, and business technologists focused on how Environmental capabilities are delivered across Georgia-Pacific.

Through our cobuilder operating model, environmental business partners help create solutions, while engineers provide architecture, governance, and the path to scale. We use AI, cloud, data platforms, and reusable enterprise assets to move faster without giving up cybersecurity, compliance, or architectural integrity. We value ownership, experimentation, knowledge sharing, and continuous learning.

What You Will Do
  • Embed directly with environmental partners to learn real plant conditions and translate ambiguous operational problems into digital solutions
  • Rapidly Co-build with business partners and forward-deployed engineers, and own what happens next - taking solutions that prove their value and making them secure, supported, and production-ready
  • Set the architecture for environmental applications: data boundaries, integration patterns, identity and access, observability, and cost - designed for growth rather than a single use case
  • Design and build production applications with React and .NET that put critical data and workflows in the hands of frontline workers, when and where they need them
  • Apply AI-first engineering across the lifecycle, using GenAI tools responsibly and leveraging judgment, quality controls, and cyber security insights to stand behind AI-generated output
  • Provide feedback and mentorship to less experienced engineers


Who You Are (Basic Qualifications)
  • Demonstrated experience rapidly prototyping with GenAI and AI-assisted development tools, producing solutions that generated positive business results
  • Proven experience building and supporting production applications with AI capabilities, Python, React, .NET, and relational and non-relational databases (strong SQL proficiency)
  • Proven experience and results from collaborating with non-technical partners to solve business problems
  • Hands-on experience supporting and modifying business-critical applications in production environments
  • Experience querying, analyzing, and manipulating unfamiliar datasets
  • Experience applying Agile principles, DevOps, CI/CD practices, and cloud-based development
  • Must have legal authorization to work permanently in the United States for any employer without requiring a visa transfer or visa sponsorship


What Will Put You Ahead
  • Environmental, sustainability, environmental reporting, environmental management systems, compliance workflows, or regulatory data
  • Experience translating operational problems into digital solutions for frontline workers - mobile-friendly UX and offline or low-connectivity considerations
  • Experience with IIoT and Industry 4.0 concepts and manufacturing data sources
  • Experience with cloud-native design and hybrid (plant plus cloud) architectures
  • Docker or Kubernetes container experience, and DevSecOps experience


At Koch companies, we are entrepreneurs. This means we openly challenge the status quo, find new ways to create value, and get rewarded for our individual contributions. Any compensation range provided for a role is an estimate determined by available market data. The actual amount may be higher or lower than the range provided, considering each candidate's knowledge, skills, abilities, and geographic location.

We provide essential resources and support to build and maintain physical, financial, and emotional strength, focusing on overall wellbeing so you can focus on what matters most. Our benefits plan includes medical, dental, vision, flexible spending and health savings accounts, life insurance, accidental death and dismemberment insurance, disability, retirement, paid vacation and time off, educational assistance, and may also include infertility assistance, paid parental leave, and adoption assistance. Specific eligibility criteria are set by the applicable Summary Plan Description, policy, or guideline, and benefits may vary by geographic region.

About Koch Industries

Koch Industries, Inc. is an American privately-held multinational conglomerate corporation based in Wichita, Kansas. Its subsidiaries are involved in the manufacturing, refining, and distribution of petroleum, chemicals, energy, fiber, intermediates and polymers, minerals, fertilizers, pulp and paper, chemical technology equipment, ranching, finance, commodities trading, and investing. Koch owns Infor, Invista, Georgia-Pacific, Molex, Flint Hills Resources, Koch Pipeline, Koch Fertilizer, Koch Minerals, Matador Cattle Company, i360, and Guardian Industries. The firm employs 120,000 people in 60 countries, with about half of its business in the United States. The company is the largest non-Canadian landowner in the Athabasca oil sands. With annual revenues of $110 billion by 2014, the company is the largest privately held company in the United States. In 2007, it was ranked as the largest privately held company. If Koch Industries had been a public company in 2013, it would have ranked 17th in the Fortune 500. The company was founded by its namesake, Fred C. Koch, in 1940 after he developed an innovative crude oil refining process. Fred C. Koch died in 1967 and his majority interest in the company was split amongst his four sons. In June 1983, after a bitter legal and boardroom battle, the stakes of Frederick R. Koch and William "Bill" Koch were bought out for $1.1 billion and Charles Koch and David Koch became majority owners in the company. Charles owns 42% of the company; trusts for the benefit of Elaine Tettemer Marshall and Elaine's children, Preston Marshall and E. Pierce Marshall Jr., own 16% of the company. The heirs of David Koch, who died on August 23, 2019, own the balance, 42%, of the corporation.
