YourCode Recruitment is working with an innovative, technology-led organisation that is transforming the way homes are designed, manufactured and constructed.
We're looking for an experienced Lead Software Engineer to take technical ownership of software platforms that connect engineering, manufacturing and factory operations.
This is not a traditional Software Engineering Manager position.
You'll remain highly hands-on while taking responsibility for software architecture, technical direction and delivery. You'll build APIs, integrations, data infrastructure and internal applications that allow engineering and manufacturing information to move seamlessly from design through to production.
For a senior engineer who enjoys solving complex real-world problems and wants their software to have a tangible impact on physical products and manufacturing operations, this is a particularly interesting opportunity.
You'll lead the development and evolution of software supporting engineering and manufacturing workflows, including:
Designing scalable software architecture and technical solutions
Remaining hands-on with software development using a Microsoft/C#/.NET technology stack
Building APIs, integration services and internal software platforms
Developing data infrastructure connecting engineering and manufacturing systems
Connecting BIM, CAD, PLM, MES, ERP and other engineering platforms
Building tools that improve the flow of data from design through fabrication and factory execution
Developing internal applications and workflow automation
Improving interoperability, data quality and system reliability
Using AI-enabled development tools to accelerate prototyping, testing, documentation and delivery
Identifying opportunities for AI-assisted engineering and manufacturing workflows
Supporting deployment, monitoring, testing, CI/CD and production reliability
Providing technical direction to external development partners
Helping shape the future internal software engineering function as the team grows
You'll work closely with Engineering, Manufacturing, Product, Quality, Construction and Operations teams.
We're particularly interested in candidates with:
7+ years of software engineering/development experience
Strong C# / .NET development experience
Previous technical leadership experience
Hands-on software architecture experience
API and systems integration experience
Experience designing scalable applications and data infrastructure
Cloud experience, ideally AWS
CI/CD, automated testing and modern software engineering practices
Strong understanding of software reliability, monitoring and production support
Experience working with technical and non-technical stakeholders
Importantly, we're looking for someone who still wants to build.
This isn't a role for someone looking to move completely away from coding into people management.
Experience developing software within any of the following would be highly relevant:
Manufacturing
Construction Technology / ConTech
Engineering
Industrial Automation
Factory / Production Systems
MES
CAD / BIM
PLM
Industrialised or Modular Construction
Experience with Revit, SOLIDWORKS, Ignition MES or similar engineering/manufacturing platforms would be advantageous but isn't essential.
This is an opportunity to take significant technical ownership at the intersection of software engineering and the physical world.
Rather than developing another standalone SaaS product, you'll build systems that directly influence how products are designed, manufactured and ultimately constructed.
You'll have the opportunity to influence architecture, technology choices, engineering standards and the future growth of the software team.
Salary up to $180,000 USD depending on experience, with some flexibility for an exceptional candidate.
The wider benefits package includes:
Medical, dental and vision insurance
401(k) with matching contributions
Paid vacation, sick leave and holidays
Life insurance
Short and long-term disability insurance
Pre-tax commuter account
Subsidised EV charging
Professional growth and development opportunities
