• Build foundational application functionality related to specification types, templates, properties, and QA components.
• Translate business and application requirements into scalable technical solutions.
• Work across frontend, middleware, and backend layers to deliver end-to-end functionality.
• Collaborate closely with the Lead Developer and existing development team on architecture, development standards, and implementation.
• Participate in code reviews, troubleshooting, debugging, and performance improvements.
• Communicate effectively with technical team members to understand requirements, discuss challenges, and arrive at solutions.

• Experience working with large or long-standing codebases.

What We're Looking For

The ideal candidate is a strong hands-on full-stack developer who is comfortable moving between frontend and backend development. While specific manufacturing or industry experience is not required, candidates should be able to quickly understand an established application and contribute to a complex development effort.

Strong communication and collaboration skills are particularly important. The developer will work closely with the Lead Developer, and the ability to clearly discuss technical requirements, challenges, and solutions will be critical to success.
