Senior Software Engineer

The Hiring Advisors LLC

Senior Software Engineer (AI + Manufacturing)

Los Angeles, CA (on-site with very cool machines)

Let's skip the buzzwords for a second.

This is not your average "build another SaaS dashboard" role.

This is:

Writing code that talks to real machines

Processing insane amounts of data (think millions of sensor events per second)

Helping build a factory that manufactures physical parts... almost as fast as someone can think of them

Yes, really.

What You'll Be Building

We're a well-funded, quietly ambitious team working on next-gen manufacturing systems powered by AI.

Our platform sits at the intersection of:
  • Software
  • Hardware
  • Physics (the fun kind, not the exam kind)
Your work will power a fully automated, industrial-scale production system - the kind that makes traditional manufacturing look... slow.

⚙ What You'll Do
  • Architect and scale backend systems that ingest massive real-time sensor data
  • Build data pipelines that feed cutting-edge ML models (GPU-heavy, data-hungry, very cool)
  • Design infrastructure for both real-time and historical analytics
  • Develop services that unify machines, data, and decision-making across the factory floor
  • Write production-grade code that directly impacts physical output (no pressure )
  • Partner with ML + hardware teams to turn raw data into intelligent systems
What You Bring
  • 5+ years building serious backend systems (not just CRUD apps)
  • Strong experience with languages like Go, Rust, C++, or Java
  • Proven ability to design and scale data-intensive systems
  • Experience with data pipelines, streaming, or distributed systems
  • Comfort working close to hardware (or curiosity to learn fast)
Bonus Points If You've Touched:
  • Kafka, Spark, Iceberg, Parquet, Arrow
  • Time-series databases or large-scale data warehousing
  • Kubernetes + containerized systems
  • High-throughput, real-time data environments
  • Anything involving 3D data, simulation, or graphics
Why This Role
  • Work on something actually novel (not just incremental)
  • Backed by serious funding, but still early enough to make a dent
  • Tight-knit, highly technical team that moves fast and builds real things
  • Competitive comp + meaningful equity
  • Full benefits (medical, dental, vision covered)
  • Daily meals, flexible hours, and a "builders first" culture
Who Thrives Here

You're probably the type who:
  • Gets bored optimizing dashboards and wants to build systems that do things
  • Enjoys solving ambiguous, first-principles problems
  • Thinks "that sounds hard" = "I'm in"

If you've been waiting for a role where software meets the real world in a big way... this is it.

Apply now - or send it to the smartest engineer you know who's secretly tired of moving pixels around.
