Software Engineers at Bright Machines are responsible for defining and implementing the systems that make Software Defined Manufacturing possible. Our platform is deployed across factory sites around the world, supporting manufacturing operations for some of the biggest names in the industry.
As an Software Engineer, you will take meaningful ownership of features and small projects across our factory software stack — including Shopkeeper (our version for a better MES), the Assembly Dashboard for Observability, Metrics and Reporting, and the infrastructure connecting the factory floor to the cloud. You will independently design and implement solutions to moderately complex problems, collaborate with cross-functional partners, actively contribute to the technical direction of the team, and mentor junior engineers. You may also lead small cross-functional projects or initiatives.
If you are ready to take ownership and contribute to a platform that changes manufacturing, this is your opportunity to Be Bright.
