Role Summary

We are developing a manufacturing data and applications platform to support digitalization and automation across the organization. The role begins with building the foundational data layer—designing databases, pipelines, and system integrations—and progressively expands into developing business logic, backend services, and user‑facing applications on a modern manufacturing app platform. This position is well‑suited to an engineer who has demonstrable experience delivering production web applications to internal users, is comfortable working close to operations, and is eager to grow into a full‑stack role spanning data engineering, backend/API development, and front‑end application development.

Responsibilities

1) Data Foundations & Engineering

• Design and evolve a maintainable relational or structured data model suitable for hierarchical manufacturing data.
• Build and maintain data ingestion and transformation processes.
• Establish reliable technical integrations with manufacturing applications, including:
• Understanding source data structures and interfaces
• Implementing stable connectors for recurring data acquisition
• Handling schema or data format changes
• Setting up integrity checks, alerting, and automated recovery

2) Backend & Business Logic Development

• Develop backend services that implement core business logic for manufacturing business process flows.
• Collaborate with solution and application developers to translate requirements into actionable business logic design for prototyping.
• Build and maintain APIs or service endpoints used by downstream applications.
• Create reusable software components for consistent data access, validation, and transformation.
• Ensure backend components are secure, performant, and scalable.
• Ensure audit trail functionalities for data transformation events.

3) Front-End
