Senior Full Stack Engineer

saeki

Responsibilities

  • As a Full-Stack Software Engineer on our manufacturing intelligence team, you'll work wherever the leverage is highest. One week that means turning an operator's spreadsheet into a proper workflow; the next it means wiring machine data into scheduling, or cutting a manual quoting step out of the order flow.
  • Production Acceleration: Finding the bottlenecks between CAD/CAM data submission and shipped parts.

Requirements

  • Experience: 3+ years as a software engineer with proven experience in shipping code to production, across backend and frontend
  • Broad Technical Range: Experience in systems design, architecture and implementation. In general, you don’t shy away from new technologies and pick up whatever the problem requires. Our current tech stack is: Rust, PostgreSQL, React, Python, AWS.
  • Industrial Grit: Comfortable spending time on the shop floor in Germany to understand how work actually happens and how your software interacts with precision machinery.
  • Autonomy: You are comfortable with diving into new topics, coming up with solutions and driving their implementation

The Role

  • You'll own problems end to end across our customer portal, Enterprise Resource Planning / Manufacturing Execution System, and the data layer connecting them to the shop floor.
  • Based at our HQ at “The Circle” (Zurich airport), your work will span:
  • Manufacturing Intelligence: Capturing process, machine, and quality data so knowledge lives in systems instead of in people's heads.
  • Automation: Replacing manual steps in quoting, planning, scheduling, and documentation with software that runs on its own.
  • Tools for People: Building interfaces that make life easier for operators, engineers, and customers, whether that's a work instruction screen, a dashboard, or a self-service portal.
  • Importantly, you do not need prior experience in the manufacturing domain. We value a high level of curiosity and autonomy to find and solve problems.

What We're Looking For

  • End-to-End Ownership: From talking to the user, to schema, to API, to UI, to rollout. You don't hand off "the other half."
  • Bonus points: Knowledge of manufacturing and how factories operate, basic understanding of the Manufacturing Automation Pyramid
  • On-site: Ability to work in person at our HQ in Zurich, Switzerland.

What we're not looking for

  • Engineers who only work on frontend or only work on backend. You must be comfortable across the full stack.
  • People who need detailed specs before they start building. You'll work directly with users and define the solution yourself.
  • Developers who ship code and move on. You own the outcome — not just the PR.
