## Description (the employer's text)

### About Us

Foundry Robotics is building an AI-native robotics manufacturing company focused on deploying advanced assembly and production capability for leading robotics companies and national-security-critical hardware. Basically, we’re building robots that build robots.

Factory OS is building software that runs factories. Our platform spans cloud backends, on-prem services, and edge devices deployed on the factory floor. The operators, supervisors, and managers who use our tools need interfaces that are fast, reliable, and intuitive—even when network conditions aren’t perfect and the environment is demanding.

### The Role

We are hiring a Staff Full-Stack Software Engineer to build end-to-end features across the Factory OS web and edge applications. You will work from responsive frontends to backend APIs, delivering software that runs both in the cloud and directly on factory-floor edge devices. You will ship features that real operators use every day to run production lines.

### Key Responsibilities

### Full-Stack Feature Development

Develop and ship features across web and edge-deployed applications using modern frontend frameworks and backend services

Build responsive, intuitive user interfaces for factory operators, supervisors, and managers

Design backend APIs and services that support both cloud and edge deployment targets

Ship production-grade systems end-to-end

### Edge + Reliability

Implement offline-capable and low-latency features for edge environments with intermittent connectivity

Design systems that tolerate degraded network modes and factory-floor conditions

Write comprehensive tests (unit, integration, E2E) and participate in code reviews

### Collaboration + Platform

Collaborate with designers, product managers, and backend engineers to deliver cohesive user experiences

Contribute to shared libraries, component systems, and developer tooling used across Factory OS

Troubleshoot and resolve production issues across the full stack

### What We're Looking For

Founder mentality: We love people who build like it’s their own company. You move fast, take ownership, and find a way through when the path isn’t obvious. You have the drive to make big things happen and the judgment to take smart risks along the way. If you prefer a clearly defined lane, a predictable pace, and all the answers before you start, there’s nothing wrong with that—but Foundry might not be the right fit.

8+ years of professional full-stack development experience, building and shipping real production software

Strong proficiency in a modern frontend framework (React, Vue, or Svelte) and TypeScript

Backend experience with Node.js, Python, Go, or a similar server-side language

Understanding of RESTful and/or GraphQL API design

Comfort with relational databases, caching layers, and message queues

Experience deploying applications to cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, or Azure)

Comfortable operating independently in a fast-paced, cross-functional environment

### Nice to Have (Not Required)

Experience building progressive web apps (PWAs) or offline-first applications

Familiarity with Docker, Kubernetes, or edge computing frameworks

Exposure to manufacturing, logistics, or industrial environments

### Growth Opportunities

Own major product surfaces used by factory teams every day

Gain deep exposure to edge computing and industrial software patterns

Influence frontend architecture and developer experience across the platform

Grow into technical leadership within the application team

### Why Join Us?

This is one of the only places where world-class manufacturing operators, mechanical engineers, robotics researchers, and software engineers sit in the same room — building production systems together.

We are committed to being deeply embedded in the U.S. industrial base. Our focus is simple: build adaptive robotic assembly systems that make American manufacturing scalable, resilient, and competitive again.

If you want to run a mature, well-defined commercial org, this may not be the role.

If you want to build the commercial engine that brings AI-driven manufacturing to every industrial and energy customer in America — this is it.
