Senior Software Engineer

Amper is an early-stage, VCbacked SaaS technology company on a mission to modernize manufacturing from the ground up. Our platform is designed to transform legacy shopfloor complexity into actionable intelligence that empowers teams across the plant to run operations on reality, and help manufacturers reduce costs, increase visibility, and drive efficiency.

Given the highly collaborative nature of this team, we support remote work but have a strong preference for candidates located in the Chicagoland area who are open to coming into the office for in-person collaboration. We have no set requirement for if or how often team members come in, but being local allows for flexibility to connect in person when it's most valuable.

The role...

We're growing our engineering team and we're looking for a Senior Full Stack Engineer to continue building our customer-facing and internal products.

Working as a full-stack engineer at Amper means working in a wide variety of contexts. We build large APIs as well as microservices. We write a lot of Python. Our front ends are largely React alongside some third party tools. We need to build for the web and for mobile. Sometimes we're working through the challenges of distributed systems, sometimes we're tuning a single database query because we need that extra bit of performance.

Being a Senior Software Engineer at Amper also means being a "product person." Our engineers don't just move tickets from pile A to pile B. Led by a Product Owner, you'll help us work through new ideas and figure out the best way to implement them.

You'll enjoy working at Amper if you :

• Have a strong appetite for the unfamiliar; that includes technical content as well as solving problems our customers face
• Believe that being helpful and humble are just as important as technical know-how
• Can teach the things you know well, and acknowledge what you can learn from others

For our senior-level SWE role, we're looking for :
