The Tech Stack
Our Tech Stack is constantly evolving as we try to stay dynamic and utilize the best tools out there. Below you’ll see some of the current technology, both development wise and company wise, we utilize but it is by no means an exhaustive list:
· Python
· MySQL
· Claude Code
· MarkSystems
· HubSpot
· Microsoft365
· Power Platform (Power BI, Power Automate etc)
Role Overview
This is a hands-on, in-office Software Engineer role reporting directly to the CTO. You’ll join a small technical team building internal software, data tools, automation workflows, and AI-enabled business applications. You’ll work closely with the CTO, our Software Engineer – Automation & AI, and IT & Data Support Specialist to maintain and improve existing tools while also building new features and applications for departments across the company.
The ideal candidate is early-to-mid career: experienced enough to debug existing code, ship features, work with APIs and SQL-backed applications, and communicate clearly with non-technical users, while still eager to learn, take feedback, and adopt modern AI-assisted development practices.
This is a practical software engineering role. You will be expected to handle bugs, developer requests, feature additions, application maintenance, internal tools, and scoped project work. Some work will be greenfield; some will involve improving, extending, or refactoring existing applications. You should be comfortable taking a partially defined business problem, asking good questions, producing a working first version, and iterating based on feedback.
We value curiosity, coachability, good judgment, practical problem solving, and willingness to use AI coding tools responsibly. This role requires flexibility: you should be willing to move between application development, automation, documentation, troubleshooting, and user support as the business needs evolve.
Focus Areas
· ~50% internal application development, feature additions, and business tools
· ~15% application maintenance, bug fixes, and production support
· ~25% automation, integrations, APIs, and data workflows
· ~10% technical documentation, cleanup, and internal development standards
Key Responsibilities
Application Development & Feature Delivery
· Design, build, and maintain internal business applications used across departments
· Support and improve current internal business applications, dashboards, and workflow tools
· Add features, resolve bugs, and improve usability in existing software systems
· Translate loosely defined business requests into practical technical solutions
· Develop data-backed tools that support operations, reporting, decision-making, and accountability
· Implement role-based access, workflows, forms, filters, exports, and basic authentication where needed
· Iterate quickly based on real user feedback and evolving requirements
Automation & System Integration
· Build automation workflows that reduce manual processes and operational friction
· Integrate third-party APIs, webhooks, internal databases, files, and business systems where appropriate
· Support scheduled jobs, data transformations, exports, imports, and internal reporting workflows
· Work with systems such as MarkSystems, Power BI, Microsoft 365, SharePoint, and other business platforms as needed
· Help improve reliability, maintainability, and documentation for internal tools and automation processes
AI-Assisted Development & Applied AI Support
· Use modern AI-assisted coding tools responsibly to accelerate development while reviewing and validating output carefully
· Assist with applied AI features such as summarization, classification, recommendations, search, and workflow support where appropriate
· Support agent-style prototypes, internal copilots, and AI-enabled tools under guidance from the CTO and Automation & AI Engineer
· Evaluate whether AI is the right solution for a problem or whether a simpler software, data, or process solution is more appropriate
· Help develop repeatable development practices for working with AI coding tools, code review, testing, and documentation
Collaboration, Communication & Support
· Work directly with the CTO on architecture, design decisions, prioritization, and code reviews
· Communicate technical concepts clearly to non-technical stakeholders across the business
· Ask clarifying questions, surface tradeoffs, and provide realistic updates on progress and blockers
· Document systems, workflows, assumptions, and decisions to ensure maintainability
· Help troubleshoot issues in applications you build or support
· Contribute to internal development standards and best practices as the team grows
Growth & Development
· Direct mentorship from the CTO with frequent feedback and guidance
· Exposure to the full lifecycle of internal software, from idea to production support
· Opportunity to work closely with automation, AI, reporting, operations, and business leadership
· Room to grow into larger project ownership as judgment, speed, and business context develop
Qualifications
· 1–4 years of experience in software development or a similar technical role; strong early-career candidates will be considered
· Strong fundamentals in at least one modern programming language; Python preferred
· Comfort working with SQL, APIs, integrations, files, and data-driven applications
· Experience building or maintaining web applications, dashboards, internal tools, scripts, or automation workflows
· Ability to debug existing code and improve systems you did not originally build
· Familiarity with Git-based development, code review, and basic software delivery practices
· Ability to work independently on scoped problems while asking good questions when requirements are unclear
· Strong curiosity and willingness to learn new technologies quickly
· Clear communication skills and openness to feedback
· Interest in using AI-assisted coding tools while maintaining ownership of quality, testing, and correctness
Bonus (Nice to Have)
· Experience with Streamlit, FastAPI, Flask, Django, React, or similar frameworks
· Familiarity with SQL databases, data modeling, MySQL, SQL Server, BigQuery, or similar platforms
· Exposure to Power BI, Power Query, DAX, Power Automate, or internal business tooling
· Experience with Azure, Microsoft 365, SharePoint, Entra ID, or cloud-hosted internal applications
· Experience integrating AI/LLM APIs into applications or workflows
· Comfort with scheduled jobs, ETL-style workflows, data cleanup, and operational reporting
· Experience working in small teams, startup-style environments, or business operations-heavy environments
· Background or interest in construction, real estate, manufacturing, ERP systems, CRM systems, or other operationally complex businesses
