Instrumental technology is used by the world’s most admired electronics brands — including Meta, NVIDIA, Bose, and Cisco — to significantly reduce the $12T lost every year to downtime, scrap, and mistakes in manufacturing. Our system collects data directly from the factory floor and uses proprietary AI to automatically identify and resolve issues, helping teams improve yield, quality, and time to market.

We’re looking for a Senior Software Engineer to join our Edge Computing team owning the software and systems that power Instrumental’s in-factory stations — the edge computing deployment extending our SaaS platform to the factory floor with cameras, sensors, high end CPU/GPU, computer vision algorithms and AI inferencing. You will have a direct and highly visible impact on the company’s growth and customer satisfaction.

Our company values are Play to Win, Be Helpful, and Work with Joy. Individuals who are interested in moving fast, collaborating hard, and taking ownership of their work and growing their skills will thrive at Instrumental. In this role, you’ll be part of the engineering team working closely with Product, SRE and customer facing field engineers for both pre- and post-sales engagements, giving you plenty of chances to stretch yourself, learn quickly, take ownership, build impactful products, and make a difference for Instrumental and yourself!

What you will do:

Take ownership of our Edge Computing platform.
Extend its functionality with new features.
Continuously improve its performance, scalability and reliability.
Collaborate with stakeholders to improve the deployment, SaaS integration and ongoing operational efficiencies in an incremental way that enables quick, iterative feedback loops.
Exercise curiosity and initiative. Always looking for better ways to build, to run and to learn.

We’d love to chat if you have:

5+ years of experience delivering production code and solid educational background.
Proficiency in Javascript or Typescript and building server codes with Node.js.
Team leadership and project leadership skills and experience.
Great communication and collaboration with internal and external stakeholders.
Interest in learning embedded systems.
Extreme open mindset. New technologies, new frameworks, AI tools, bring them on!
A genuine interest in understanding customer problems — you’re serious about what problems customers are facing, use cases, how to build solutions, how to engage with stakeholders to seek feedback and act on the feedback.
Passion for the startup do-er culture: own it, figure things out, win as a team, do whatever it takes.

Bonus points if you have experience with:

One or more systems programming languages: C, C++, Rust, etc.
Embedded systems.
Experience with Angular or React frameworks.
