Role Description Firestorm is building the next generation of uncrewed aircraft and the advanced manufacturing systems that deliver them at speed. The Software Integration & Operations department owns the software layer that spans factory floor to cloud - the applications, automation, edge systems, and intelligence that make it possible to iterate product designs, automate advanced manufacturing, and scale production with uncompromising quality and rigor. As a Senior Full Stack Engineer, you will own end-to-end application development across the manufacturing software platform - API, frontend, data model, background jobs, and the integration points to other systems. You will ship features that technicians, supervisors, engineers, and quality teams rely on every day on the factory floor, and the quality of your work will be visible in how manufacturing runs. This is a hands-on IC role with heavy domain complexity - work orders, engineering change orders, effectivity, defect disposition - and we expect you to get deep on the problem, not just the stack. What You'll Do - Own features end-to-end from product brief to production: data model, API, frontend, tests, and rollout. - Design and evolve the core domain model - work orders, engineering changes, effectivity, defect records - and the APIs that operate on it. - Build React interfaces that are fast, accessible, and designed for operator use on the factory floor, not just a web browser. - Write and review Postgres schemas and migrations; own data integrity across schema evolution. - Partner with product, design, and manufacturing stakeholders to translate real operational needs into shipped software. - Contribute to architectural decisions and raise the bar on testing, observability, and operational excellence. Qualifications - 5+ years of full-stack engineering with production systems at non-trivial scale. - Strong proficiency in TypeScript, React, and Node.js-based backends. - Deep experience with relational databases (Postgres preferred) and ORMs (Prisma preferred); you understand indexing, migrations, and transactional consistency. - Track record of shipping production-quality features in close collaboration with product and design. - Demonstrated ability to reason about complex domain models and turn them into maintainable software. - Demonstrated history of holding yourself and your teammates to a high standard, even when it creates discomfort. Preferred Qualifications - Prior experience building manufacturing, supply chain, ERP / MES / PLM, or other industrial software. - Familiarity with container-based deployments (Docker) and cloud infrastructure (AWS or Azure). - Experience with observability tooling (Datadog, Grafana, OpenTelemetry). - Background that includes both startup and scale-stage product engineering.
