Python Go Developer Jobs in Fort Wayne, IN (NOW HIRING)

We are seeking a highly motivated, self-driven Senior Full Stack Platform Developer to join our Data, DevOps & Infrastructure team. This individual will play a key role in designing and developing the next generation of internal applications, dashboards, operational tools, and platform services that support every aspect of the organization.

This is not a traditional development role. We are looking for someone who enjoys solving business problems, working directly with stakeholders, and building complete solutions from concept through production. The ideal candidate is equally comfortable gathering requirements from executive leadership and end users as they are designing architecture, writing code, and deploying production-ready applications.

The successful candidate will help establish a unified application framework that enables rapid development of future internal tools while partnering closely with our Infrastructure and DevOps teams to build a scalable enterprise platform.

• Meet with business leaders and operational teams to gather and document functional requirements.

• Design, architect, and develop modern full-stack applications from concept through production.

• Build customer-facing portals, internal operational dashboards, reporting systems, and workflow automation tools.

• Design reusable application frameworks and development standards for future projects.

• Select and evaluate modern development frameworks, libraries, and supporting technologies.

• Build scalable distributed applications and services.

• Design RESTful APIs and backend services that integrate with internal systems.

• Develop intuitive, responsive, and visually polished user interfaces with strong UI/UX principles.

• Document application architecture, deployment procedures, and operational runbooks.

• Partner closely with the DevOps and Infrastructure teams to automate deployments and establish CI/CD pipelines.

• Cross-train DevOps engineers so they can maintain, extend, and deploy applications developed within the platform.

• Participate in architectural planning and technology roadmap discussions.

• Continuously evaluate emerging technologies that improve development velocity, maintainability, and scalability.

• 5+ years of professional full stack software development experience.

• Strong experience with modern front-end frameworks (React, Vue, Angular, or similar).

• Strong experience developing backend services using modern languages such as C#, Java, Go, Python, or Node.js.

• Experience designing REST APIs and service-oriented architectures.

• Experience with SQL and NoSQL databases.

• Strong UI/UX design skills with the ability to build intuitive user experiences.

• Experience with Git and modern software development practices.

• Strong written and verbal communication skills.

• Ability to work independently with minimal supervision.

• Excellent organizational and documentation skills.

• Comfortable interacting with technical and non-technical stakeholders across all levels of the organization.

• Experience with containerized applications (Docker/Kubernetes).

• Experience working with DevOps practices and CI/CD pipelines.

• Familiarity with Infrastructure as Code tools such as Terraform or Ansible.

• Experience with cloud platforms and hybrid infrastructure.

• Experience building enterprise dashboards and reporting platforms.

• Experience with authentication platforms such as OAuth, OpenID Connect, or SSO.

• Experience designing scalable distributed systems.

• Experience working in manufacturing, industrial automation, logistics, or operations environments.

We're looking for someone who:

• Is a true self-starter.

• Thrives with ownership and autonomy.

• Enjoys building systems from the ground up.

• Thinks like an architect rather than simply a programmer.

• Has a passion for clean, maintainable software.

• Communicates effectively with executives, engineers, and operational teams.

• Enjoys solving complex business problems with elegant technical solutions.

• Takes pride in delivering polished, production-quality software.

• Occasional travel to company facilities may be required.

• Preference will be given to onsite or hybrid candidates; however, exceptional remote candidates will be considered.

This role offers the opportunity to help define the company's long-term application platform strategy. You'll have the freedom to influence architecture, technology selection, development standards, and the design of systems that will be used across the organization for years to come.
