Job description

Ever wanted to build software that does more than sit in the cloud?

I'm working with an established, employee-owned engineering and manufacturing business that's investing in modernizing the software behind its industrial machinery.

They're looking for a Software Engineer who enjoys building modern applications but also understands how software interacts with physical equipment, real-time data and industrial systems.

This isn't a traditional PLC or controls engineering position.

The focus is on modern software engineering, intuitive user interfaces and building reliable applications that operate alongside real machinery.

The opportunity

You'll join a small engineering team working on the next generation of software for industrial manufacturing equipment.

A major focus is modernizing existing HMI/operator interfaces, replacing outdated approaches with intuitive, modern applications that make complex machinery easier to operate.

You also contribute to a preventative-maintenance and machine-monitoring platform, helping customers better understand equipment performance, identify issues and improve reliability.

The software needs to work in real-world production environments, where reliability matters and downtime has genuine consequences.

What you'll be doing

• Building modern operator interfaces and applications using React and TypeScript
• Developing backend services and APIs using technologies such as Node.js, Python and C++
• Working with real-time machine data, telemetry and equipment monitoring
• Integrating software with PLCs and industrial equipment
• Improving the usability of complex industrial systems
• Developing reliable applications for edge/on-premise environments
• Contributing to software architecture, testing, deployment and engineering best practices
• Helping shape the technical direction of new software products

What we're looking for

You'll ideally have:

• Experience building applications with React
• Backend development experience with Node.js, Python or similar
• An understanding of APIs, databases and software architecture
• Experience building and supporting production software
• An interest in software that interacts with physical systems

Experience in any of the following would be particularly interesting:

• Industrial automation, manufacturing or robotics
• HMI / SCADA / operator interfaces
• PLC-connected software
• OPC UA, MQTT, Modbus or other industrial communication protocols
• Industrial IoT, edge computing or embedded-connected applications
• Real-time monitoring, telemetry or machine-control software

You don't need to have worked with every technology listed.

We're particularly interested in software engineers who've worked around industrial systems, rather than traditional controls engineers who have only occasionally written application code.

Why consider it?

• Fully remote within the US, with occasional travel to manufacturing facilities and customer sites
• $90,000–$125,000 base salary, depending on experience
• Annual bonus opportunities
• Employee ownership through an ESOP, subject to eligibility
• Small engineering team with genuine influence over technical decisions
• Opportunity to modernize software used on real industrial machinery
• Exposure to frontend, backend, industrial integration and software architecture
• Scope for technical progression as the software function develops

If you've built software for robotics, manufacturing, automation, IoT or other hardware-connected environments — and enjoy modern React/TypeScript development — I'd be particularly interested in speaking.
