Job Summary:

The Manufacturing Systems Software Developer will play a critical role in building the next generation of internal operational tools that support an industrial organization. This role will lead the development of internal software systems that unify production scheduling, ERP workflows, shop‑floor visibility, and leadership reporting.

As the primary owner of an emerging internal systems ecosystem, the developer will transform existing prototypes into stable, scalable, production‑ready applications while continuing to expand the platform across multiple facilities. Key systems include production scheduling and dispatch tools, ERP (M1) dashboards, KPI and performance reporting, product configurators, and machine‑monitoring integrations.

This is not a traditional software development role. The developer will work directly with operations, production, and IT teams to translate real manufacturing challenges into practical, high‑impact digital tools used daily across the business. The ideal candidate thrives in industrial environments.

Key Responsibilities:

• Build and maintain internal operational applications, including scheduling tools, dispatch systems, dashboards, and product configurators
• Develop integrations with ERP (ECI M1) via APIs and data pipelines
• Support operational analytics, including backlog, bookings, on‑time delivery (OTD), inventory, and productivity metrics
• Integrate machine monitoring platforms (Guidewheel) with ERP/job data
• Help define system architecture and long-term platform structure

Required Skills/Abilities:

• Strong experience with Python, JavaScript/TypeScript, and SQL
• Experience working with REST APIs and system integrations
• Experience working with ERP systems (M1, Epicor, Infor, etc.)
• Experience with Power BI or similar analytics platforms
• Ability to work directly with operations teams and translate needs into working systems
• Familiarity with manufacturing environments

Preferred Skills/Abilities:

• Experience working with or alongside AI tools—particularly Claude—is strongly preferred

Education and Experience:

• Bachelor's degree preferred or equivalent years of experience
• 5-8+ years of experience

Supervisory Responsibilities:

• None

Work Environment and Physical Requirements:

Prolonged periods of sitting at a desk and working on a computer.

Must be able to spend extended periods of time working within a manufacturing facility.
