Preferred Locations: Charlotte, NC, Plano, TX or Kitchener, Ontario - Remote Workers will be considered.

About Us

Building Robotics, Inc. is a Siemens-owned business on a mission to connect employees to the people, places, and things they need to do their best work. Our SaaS platform combines building intelligence, space analytics, and a consumer-grade mobile app technology to improve the workplace experience for Fortune 500 companies around the globe. Headquartered in the San Francisco Bay Area, our fast-growing team balances the dynamic energy of a small company with the backing of a global powerhouse.

Overview

We are looking for Software Engineering Managers to help build the next generation of our smart building products. This is an opportunity to make difference by developing products that make offices, hospitals, factories and warehouse into energy efficient, interactive and efficient spaces in which to work. Come join our startup culture and participate firsthand in designing the future of workspaces.

Having successfully deployed the first generation of our products, we are putting together teams to build the next generation to address a range of IT, OT, and IoT use cases (including real-time location, wayfinding, people counting, room booking, access control, and visitor management); and are exploring ways to leverage machine learning across our product. Simultaneously, we are aggressively growing our user base, with some of our largest-ever deployments currently in flight.

We value clean architecture and modern approaches to software development and testing. Our products consist of cloud-based micro-services and modern web and mobile applications. You will work closely with a tight, agile team that ships features continuously, and you will be able to see the impact of your work on real customers.

We are building systems that integrate IoT, real-time data and web/mobile apps and we are doing it with a micro-service architecture to facilitate independent scrum teams. As a Software Engineering Manager, you will be working with one or more scrum teams as both a technical and people leader, helping those teams to build great products that make our customers happy. You need to have technical depth, great people skills, the ability to grow and mentor emerging leaders, and the ability to work as part of a distributed team. This is the ideal role for someone who wants to be part of a cutting-edge cloud development team while improving the lives of people in buildings all over the world.

About You

• First and foremost, you love building great software that make your customers happy. Your teams write code that is comprehensible, well-structured, highly performant, and you are equally comfortable in talking architecture with your seniors, reviewing pull requests or mentoring your team to develop great code.
• You are curious and passionate about knowing “why”, whether it is why a use case is important for a customer, or why something strange happens one time in a hundred tries.
• You have built high-performing teams through hiring great people and developing your team members into the best version of themselves
• You love both learning and teaching. In this role, you will be interfacing with design, front-end, back-end, platforms, analytics, as well as our PM and QA teams; towards that end, you enjoy working across teams to solve hard problems.
• Agile development is second-nature. Not only will you be expected to participate in daily scrums, sprint planning, and retros; you will be expected to help improve our ceremonies.
• You strive for quality, and are obsessed with unit tests, automation, and squashing any bugs that sneak through. But it is more than that: you'll use our product, realize "hey! that's not what I expected!" and figure out how to make it better for everyone.

Your Skills and Experience

• Bachelor’s degree in computer science, engineering, or other related discipline required or equivalent experience
• Deep knowledge of at least one modern programming language (Java and/or Python preferred)
• 2+ years of team leadership building consumer-facing products with high-reliability and quality
• Experience building either high-performing backend systems or customer-facing web/mobile applications
• You are obsessed with performance, and have experience with instrumentation and monitoring services to ensure the application is behaving as expected
• You have a basic knowledge of computer science fundamentals, including data structures, algorithms, and object-oriented design
• 10+ years of industry experience developing large-scale applications in either the backend or the frontend
  • Experience with delivery of IoT systems in the cloud
  • Experience incremental delivery of enterprise systems with CI/CD
  • Understanding of micro-service development
  • Understanding of web service development
  • Knowledge of multi-tier architectures across multiple technology stacks .net, Java, J2EE, web servers, caching, application servers, RDBMS/NoSQL: Postgres, Dynamo DB
• Proactive business skills and strong collaborative skills are required.
  • Self-Directed, High Energy
  • Demonstrated leadership skills; ability to work independently with minimal supervision as part of a globally distributed virtual team
  • Proven ability to collaborate effectively across disciplines, product lines, roles and geographical and time zone boundaries
  • Excellent oral/written communication & listening skills will be necessary to present information, analysis & recommendations to all levels of employees, including management, and customers.
  • High degree of organization to manage & maintain project plans, road maps & provide accurate updates as part of the review cycle.

Bonus Points For

• Experience building complex, scalable, high-performance software systems that have been successfully delivered to customers
• Experience designing and deploying dynamically scalable, highly available, fault tolerant and reliable cloud applications (AWS preferred)
• Experience with Cordova, Android, iOS development
• Experience working with third-party / IoT integrations
• Experience working with platforms for Big Data or Machine Learning solutions
