Self-motivated and inspired, you thrive in an environment where you are empowered to work your craft, never settling for the bare minimum.

What You Will Be Doing:

1\. Develop, test, deploy and support full-stack applications that enable production operations use cases. 2\. Design data pipelines and database solutions to integrate manufacturing systems and automate workflow processes. 3\. Build full-stack web applications to streamline data collection and management across production systems. 4\. Create real-time dashboards and data visualizations that enable leadership and floor supervisors to make informed decisions. This role involves directly interfacing with technical and non-technical users to truly understand their needs and then rapidly iterating to develop an application that they will love to use. Must be a US Citizen. This position is located at a facility that requires special access. Eligibility for a U.S. security clearance and a clean background check in accordance with Defense Contractor requirements.
