Senior Software Engineer – Full Stack Emulate, Inc.

Location

Boston, MA

Role Description

The Senior Software Engineer (Full Stack) designs, develops, and operates software that connects our scientific instruments with cloud services and user-facing applications. You will work across the stack—front end (TypeScript / React), back end (Go services / APIs), data and messaging, and integration with instrument software—to deliver reliable features that drive scientific workflows and insights. You’ll collaborate with Frontend, Backend, DevOps, and Instrument engineering to “connect the dots” across our architecture and translate user and system requirements into high-quality, validated software.

This role reports to the Director, Software Engineering within the Platform Products department. You will lead design reviews, improve our tooling and paved roads, and help us move faster with confidence. This position is hybrid with an expectation of at least four days per week in the Boston office.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead end-to-end delivery of features that span embedded firmware and ROS / ROS 2 nodes : requirements, design, implementation, verification, release, and sustaining.
• Own end-to-end feature delivery across web front end, back end services, and instrument integrations : requirements → design → implementation → testing → release → operations.
• Partner with Product, Scientists, and cross-functional stakeholders to clarify requirements and translate them into epics, stories, and acceptance criteria.
• Design and build secure, scalable APIs (REST / gRPC) and front-end experiences that are resilient, accessible, and observable.
• Collaborate with instrument and embedded teams to enable robust data and control pathways between devices, desktop utilities, and cloud applications.
• Improve our infrastructure, tooling, and developer experience (CI / CD, testing strategy, monitoring, documentation).
• Conduct design and code reviews; uphold engineering best practices, documentation standards, and validated change control.
• Maintain high bar for security and privacy across the stack; contribute to threat modeling and remediation.
• Create and maintain technical documentation that enables repeatability, auditability, and future development.
