Requirements
Requirements
  • Proven experience writing software that talks to physical devices — you understand hardware communication protocols (USB, serial, REST/HTTP, vendor SDKs) and debugging at the hardware-software boundary
  • TypeScript and Node.js proficiency — production-grade backend services, not just scripts
  • AWS familiarity — enough to design systems that bridge on-prem hardware with cloud infrastructure
  • Experience building monitoring, alerting, or automation tooling in operational or manufacturing environments is a strong plus
  • Operationally grounded: comfortable getting your hands dirty and troubleshooting on the floor at 7am if that's what it takes
  • A clear communicator who can translate messy operational problems into clean technical solutions — and talk fluently in both directions
  • Ownership mentality: when something breaks, you're the one who figures out why and makes sure it doesn't happen again
  • Mission-motivated: you want to build systems that change lives, not just move metrics

  • Collaborate with the Boston/SF engineering team to translate operational needs into well-architected backend services and APIs
  • Act as the on-the-ground technical authority for floor initiatives — scoping, coordinating, and driving execution
  • Identify and eliminate failure points in the physical-to-digital loop, from print job creation through to fulfilment
