• Build and ship the tech stack that runs our factory of the future. This includes but is not limited to production scheduling, workflow orchestration, real-time integration with industrial machines, etc.
• Own features end to end, with a focus on either frontend or backend but willing to jump in to fill in the other pieces where needed as we're emphasizing a holistic approach to software development
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams to integrate software solutions into a fascinating and challenging business domain
• Ensure the scalability, security, and performance of our software systems

• You have a strong technical and delivery mindset and are comfortable making technical decisions that balance speed, quality, and long-term maintainability

• You have profound experience in using modern technologies to build applications. At Daedalus, we use Python, Django, React.JS, TypeScript, Docker, Kubernetes, and Bazel. However, you don't need to have experience using exactly this stack already; what we look for is someone who can learn new tools quickly and can pick the best tool for the task at hand

What's in it for you

• Work with purpose and ambition in one of the most exciting and innovative manufacturing facilities in Germany
• Close collaboration with an international team from the fields of manufacturing, artificial intelligence, software, robotics, and operations
