About the role

ABOUT THE ROLE

We are hiring a software engineer to join our core engineering team. Depending on our current product needs and your experience, your work may support warehouse management, order management, supply chain planning, supply chain intelligence, or integrations.

As a software engineer on the core engineering team, you will own well-scoped features and components, contribute to design decisions, and deliver changes through production with support from teammates when needed.

You will join a team of world-class, highly motivated engineers delivering a high-quality software architecture that will help solve the challenges at the scale that our customers trust us to get right, and so communication and ability to work in a team environment are key for this role.

WHAT YOU’LL DO

- Build and maintain Bright Suite features using Java, Spring Boot, Hibernate, TypeScript, Angular, and MySQL.

- Turn customer and business problems into software that is reliable, maintainable, and useful in production.

- Design services, APIs, workflows, data models, and user interfaces that fit the problem and the surrounding product architecture.

- Write automated tests that protect behavior and catch real bugs.

- Investigate defects and performance issues by reproducing the problem, reading logs and traces, testing assumptions, and addressing root causes.

- Participate in design discussions, code reviews, refinement, and retrospectives.

- Collaborate with product managers, quality engineers, professional services, customer experience, and engineers on adjacent teams.

- Document decisions, operational considerations, and anything another engineer would need to support or extend your work.

- Improve the codebase and development process when you see recurring friction, quality gaps, or technical debt.

- Use AI coding tools as part of your engineering workflow. Review generated code carefully and validate its behavior, security, and fit with our systems.

REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS

- Experience building software as part of a collaborative engineering team, with an understanding of what it takes to make code reliable after it ships.

- Experience with Java and object-oriented design. Experience with Spring Boot and Hibernate is important for this role.

- Experience building web applications or APIs with TypeScript and a modern frontend framework such as Angular, React, or a similar framework.

- Experience with MySQL or another relational database, including query writing, data modeling, and performance considerations.

- A habit of writing automated tests and using code review to improve quality.

- The ability to understand a problem before coding, ask focused questions, make reasonable decisions, and raise risks early.

- Clear written and verbal communication. You can explain technical choices to engineers and product partners.
