We are seeking an experienced Software Engineering Manager who thrives as a working manager — someone who leads by example, isn''''t afraid to write code alongside their team, and brings both technical depth and people leadership to the table. This role sits at the intersection of hands-on engineering, team management, and cross-functional collaboration.
The ideal candidate brings a strong background in enterprise software development, on-premise solution deployment, and manufacturing or industrial technology environments. You are a pragmatic, open-minded technologist who values collaboration, continuous improvement, and emerging technologies like machine learning and robotics.
KEY RESPONSIBILITIES • Design and develop C#, Blazor, and RESTful API solutions • Architect scalable on-premises software with strong DB design • Integrate software with PLCs, HMIs, and MES platforms • Conduct code reviews and define engineering standards • Manage project scope, timelines, and Jira tracking • Champion ML/AI and robotics exploration for product roadmap • Translate business requirements into technical specifications | QUALIFICATIONS • 5+ years software engineering experience • Strong proficiency in C# / .NET and Blazor • RESTful API design, implementation, and integration • Relational database experience (SQL Server, PostgreSQL) • On-premises software deployment and maintenance • Agile/Scrum and Jira project management • PLC/HMI and MES integration experience preferred • Exposure to ML frameworks and CI/CD pipelines a plus |
WHAT WE VALUE IN THIS ROLE |
We''''re not looking for someone who rigidly enforces a single methodology or technology stack. We want a leader who thinks broadly, adapts thoughtfully, and brings the team along for the journey. If you believe great software comes from empowered, collaborative teams — and you still love being in the code — this role was built for you.
