Job description

Our Backend Developer opening rewards depth over breadth: pick MySQL, go deep, and let Manufacturing Technologies handle the rest of the stack. Bring Terraform and Change Management; we'll bring $150,000 - $226,000, a strong team, and the ownership that turns experience into impact.

Key Responsibilities

• Troubleshoot and resolve production incidents across Decision Making-based applications
• Sketch Go sequence diagrams that make the technology flow obvious to everyone
• Pair Go and Django in a pipeline Manufacturing Technologies can extend without your help later
• Carry the Webpack platform work that makes Manufacturing Technologies's next CA expansion boring
• Wrangle Webpack config across environments so Fremont staging mirrors production
• Profile and refactor legacy code to reduce technical debt over time
• Wire Webpack APIs to React consumers so data lands where Fremont teams expect it
• Lead Change Management design reviews that catch the costly mistakes before Fremont, CA builds them

What You'll Bring

• Comfort steering technology conversations toward a decision
• Professionalism, integrity, and discretion with sensitive information
• Judgment seasoned by at least 6 years of real consequences
• The kind of empathy that makes hard feedback land softly
• Sharp written and verbal communication, tested under scrutiny
• Detail-oriented approach with a commitment to accuracy

Half the technology platforms in CA quietly depend on something Manufacturing Technologies built in Fremont with fun-loving care. Inclusion isn't a poster on the Fremont, CA wall; it's who gets pulled into the room and heard.

Salaries here begin at $150,000 - $226,000, complemented by stock options, learning budgets, and weekly one-on-one coaching.
