Tasks and Qualifications:

What You Will Do

• Design, implement, and maintain features on the Configure platform used to model and configure automated warehouse solutions.
• Develop high-quality, maintainable code using modern engineering practices including code reviews, automated testing, and CI/CD pipelines.
• Build and extend 3D parametric components and configuration logic used to represent complex warehouse automation systems.
• Analyze technical problems, identify root causes, and implement robust solutions that scale across multiple deployments.
• Collaborate with product owners and solution architects to translate business and engineering requirements into technical designs.
• Contribute to system architecture decisions, including performance optimization, modularization, and framework improvements.
• Write unit tests, integration tests, and automated validation to ensure reliability and maintainability of the codebase.
• Review code from peers and mentor junior engineers on standard methodologies, architecture, and debugging techniques.
• Improve UI architecture and maintain clean separation between UI, configuration logic, and data models.
• Work closely with global development teams to align on architecture, coding standards, and feature implementation.
• Investigate and resolve production issues, performance bottlenecks, and edge cases in complex configuration scenarios.
• Document system behavior, architecture decisions, and development practices to support long-term maintainability.
• Continuously evaluate tools, frameworks, and approaches that improve engineering efficiency and system robustness.

Required Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related technical field.
• 3-7 years of professional software development experience.
• Experience with CM / Configura CET Developer (CM coding), 3D parametric programming, or 3D engine development (e.g., Unity, Unreal, or similar).
• Strong experience with 3D modeling or CAD-based configuration systems.
• Proven experience developing front-end or user interface-based software systems.
• Understanding of object-oriented design, modular architecture, and maintainable code structures.
• Experience building scalable and extensible frameworks or platforms.
• Familiarity with UI architecture patterns and component encapsulation.
• Experience with test-driven development, automated testing, and code quality practices.
• Strong debugging and problem-solving skills in complex technical systems.
• Ability to break down large problems into manageable engineering tasks.
• Experience working in collaborative engineering teams using code reviews, version control, and issue tracking systems.
• Strong written and verbal communication skills, particularly when explaining technical concepts to multi-functional teams.
• Travel up to 10% of the time.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience developing configuration platforms or product configurators.
• Background in warehouse automation, logistics systems, robotics integration, or industrial software.
• Experience with 3D visualization pipelines, geometry engines, or parametric modeling frameworks.
• Familiarity with performance optimization in rendering or complex UI systems.
• Experience mentoring developers or leading technical initiatives within a team.

What We Value

• Engineers who take ownership of systems and outcomes, not just tasks.
• A focus on clean, maintainable code and long-term system quality.
• Practical problem solvers who can balance engineering rigor with delivery timelines.
• Collaboration across global teams and subject areas.
• Continuous learning and improvement.
