About the company
Our client is an advanced manufacturing technology company.
The role
Raydar is recruiting for this role on behalf of our client. Join an early engineering group as a hands-on builder, designing and shipping internal software systems from scratch and owning them end-to-end. You will work closely with the people who use the software every day, gathering feedback and iterating quickly. The work focuses on operational software for a physical production environment, built so it can be reused across multiple sites.
What you'll do
- Build an enterprise resource planning system covering inventory, material tracking and workflow across a facility.
- Develop monitoring software that exchanges low-latency data with industrial equipment.
- Create quality management tools that track and improve precision part quality.
- Work directly with floor operators to collect feedback and iterate quickly on the tools they use daily.
- Architect systems so they can be replicated across multiple sites.

- 2+ years of software engineering experience.
- Track record of building and shipping real products at high-intensity technology companies or startups.

- Academic record of a 3.75+ GPA, or 4.0 GPA if from a program outside the top 30.
- Strong Python proficiency.
- Strong machine learning knowledge, including model fine-tuning.
- High agency: able to take ambiguous problems and deliver solutions independently.
- Able to work on-site full-time.
- U.S. citizen or lawful permanent resident, eligible under export-control requirements.
