Vention helps some of the most innovative manufacturing companies automate their production floor in just a few days. Vention's online-first manufacturing automation platform (MAP) enables its clients to design, automate, order, and deploy manufacturing equipment directly from their web browser.

Vention is headquartered in Montreal, Canada, with offices in Berlin and Boston, and is used in over 3,000 factories on 5 continents. As one of Canada’s Most Admired Cultures and Great Place to Work, we are a performance driven culture that cares deeply about happiness. We like ambitious goals, facts & data, and constructive debates. But at the same time, we know that we can’t repeatedly push ourselves if we are not surrounded by an uplifting and caring work environment. Those two sides of our culture, feed each other and are safeguarded with the same level of attention. Our values & principles include:

• We make our clients successful - we do what’s right for our customers, even when it makes our roles more challenging.
• We execute and deliver - we set ambitious goals for ourselves and are energized about meeting them.
• We debate, then commit - we challenge our own perspectives and ideas in pursuit of the best solutions.
• We innovate to inspire - we value innovation in products, user experiences, and business practices.
• We collaborate to achieve more - we work as one team to achieve more than we would on our own.
• We empower our people to reach their full potential - we hold ourselves to high standards but know when to celebrate progress & achievements

One of our most dynamic and exciting software teams is looking for a Senior Software Developer, to guide us in technology choices and architecture design as our department grows.

Joining the “Digital Workflow” team, you will design and implement web-based applications to automate industrial machines - from simulating them in the Cloud, all the way to operating them on the shopfloor - including backend and databases, user interfaces, CI/CD pipeline, and everything in-between.

You will get the chance to work with our robot systems (including robotic arms and three-axis machines) and the tablet that shop-floor operators use to control and interact with their equipment.

As a Senior Software Developer, you will participate in the most critical tasks of our department: injecting velocity in the most important ones, problem-solving the most complex ones. You will collaborate closely with our team leads, product managers, QA developers and Technical Directors, and also provide mentorship to our more junior members.

What you'll do:

• Participate in all aspects of the software lifecycle, from defining requirements, designing models, to implementing and testing, and finally, deployment and maintenance.

• Do hands on full stack web development (Typescript): implementing the back-end engine needed to interact with the existing Vention tech stack, as well as our graphical user interfaces that allow customers to interact with their industrial machine in a code-free way.

• Develop and maintain thorough documentation for all developed models and associated code.

• Design and lead crucial technical projects and initiatives across teams and departments.

• Work closely with leadership: software team leads, product managers, etc.

• Provide mentorship and technical guidance to junior team members.

• 7+ years experience in software development (preferably with typescript)

• Experience with Typescript, Python, and with web development frameworks such as React

• Experience in designing responsive systems (embedded and cloud/web)

• Understanding of distributed system design and the related technical challenges

• A strong ownership of all aspects throughout the SDLC and beyond

• Strong sense of responsibility, to show ownership over full, end-to-end solutions

• Love of new challenges and ability to work in fast-paced environment
