Job summary

Amtech is seeking a Software Engineer III to take end-to-end ownership of modules on the EnCore ERP platform. You will tackle non-routine problems, focus on concurrency, and mentor peers while driving architecture and system-wide improvements.

You will guide design decisions, strengthen test coverage, and ensure safe, scalable database changes. A strong emphasis on maintainability and production reliability is required in this role.

Responsibilities

• Own modules or significant components end-to-end, including design, implementation, testing, documentation, and incremental improvement.
• Solve non-routine problems that require understanding of concurrency, transaction design, database locking, state machines, and production behavior.
• Design safe concurrent systems including queue claiming, background processing, multi-instance coordination, and idempotent operations.
• Trace and understand complex legacy code across module boundaries, identify bottlenecks, and improve it incrementally without full rewrites.
• Lead database design and migration for large production tables, consider blocking, deployment order, rollback, and customer schema differences.
• Diagnose and fix production issues using logs, execution plans, database locks, and systematic tracing—not guessing.
• Create testable boundaries around legacy UI logic, extracting pure business logic that can be tested independently.
• Guide peers informally through code review, design discussions, and mentoring; contribute to technical hiring.
• Strengthen test coverage and reliability by identifying failure modes, designing retry and cancellation, and improving system observability.
• Evaluate trade-offs between pessimistic and optimistic concurrency, locking strategies, and deployment safety.

At this level, you are a trusted owner who balances correctness, performance, and maintainability‑and who improves legacy systems incrementally without fear.

This role emphasizes module ownership with clear accountability for quality and efficiency, concurrency design, production debugging, safe database changes at scale, and the ability to trace and understand complex, event‑driven code. You will guide peers, strengthen test coverage, and make sound technical trade‑offs.
