Job description

As a full-stack enterprise Software Design Engineer on our development team, you will continue to grow your cloud and Java-EE enterprise application development skills by learning and providing team and user support for our existing cloud-based, full-stack, Java-EE enterprise data collection system. In this position, you will also help the team drive the continued growth and development of the existing system.

The primary component in our infrastructure is the “Factory Information System” (FIS), a cloud-based, custom data collection system, consisting of AWS-deployed Java-EE application servers, high-availability SQL databases, and web applications, both Java and Python-based. Our growth vision includes the enhancement of the existing system and development of new enterprise applications to allow a significantly larger deployment base providing data collection services to more of our manufacturing operations worldwide.

The successful candidate must thrive in a small, tight-team environment, have a strong sense of ownership, and be a driver for learning new cloud-based software development and system administration technologies and skills, and be a mentor to team members and users. Team members are expected to be largely self-directed and able to create reliable, scalable, and maintainable enterprise solutions in a mission-critical environment within budgetary and schedule constraints. This is an opportunity for the successful candidate to be part of a team that is actively growing and applying their skills in the area(s) of cloud-based infrastructure design and support. Come grow with us.

Responsibilities:

• Learn and provide support for the current cloud-based Java-EE application stack and data infrastructure.
• Provide support for our cloud-based PostgreSQL/PGPool databases and the EJB interfaces.
• Be a key part of the team that researches, develops, and implements on-going improvements to our cloud-based (AWS) infrastructure.
• Be a partner in our development and implementation of future technologies and initiatives such as, (but not limited to), integration of our data systems with other corporate data systems, optimizing and improving our cloud architecture, driving cost reduction efforts, implementation of microservices, DevOps, and SCADA integration & adoption.
• Champion software development and dev-ops best practices for other developers on the team and in our user base.
• Work directly with our user base to identify and understand improvements and enhancements to our services that will provide greater benefit to our users.
• Interface with our corporate IT and other functional organizations as necessary.

Additionally:

• Working knowledge of full-stack software development in a Java-EE environment a must.
• Experience with Python web frameworks and development practices in a cloud environment a significant plus.
• Experience with system administration of UNIX-based systems and knowledge of networking protocols a plus.
• Experience with the following networking and cloud technologies a plus:
  • SOAP/REST/Docker/Terraform/Ansible.
• Experience with dev-ops and CI/CD practices a plus.
