About the Role:

We’re hiring a Staff Software Engineer to help lead our growing full stack teams. In this role, you'll build and maintain high-quality web applications using React and TypeScript, ensuring seamless integration across the stack. You’ll collaborate cross-functionally, contribute to agile development processes, and play a key role in optimizing performance, scalability, and code quality. We're looking for someone with 7+ years of experience, strong front-end and API development skills, and a passion for clean, maintainable code. If you thrive in fast-paced environments and enjoy solving complex problems with a team-first mindset, we’d love to meet you

Key Responsibilities:

• Develop and maintain web applications using React and Typescript

• Collaborate with cross-functional teams to ensure seamless integration of front-end and back-end functionalities

• Optimize website performance and ensure scalability

• Write clean and maintainable code that adheres to industry standards and best practices

• Troubleshoot and debug issues that arise during development and testing

• Continuously improve the quality of the codebase through code reviews and refactoring

• Participate in agile ceremonies such as sprint planning and retrospectives

• Stay up-to-date with emerging trends and technologies in full-stack development

Requirements:

• You have at least 7 years of experience in software development and are highly skilled in React, Typescript, and APIs

• You possess strong problem-solving skills and can think critically and creatively to find solutions to complex problems

• You have excellent communication skills and can articulate technical concepts to both technical and non-technical stakeholders

• You are detail-oriented and take pride in writing clean, maintainable, and reusable code

• You are comfortable working in a fast-paced environment and can adapt to changing priorities and requirements

• You are a self-motivated individual with a passion for building high-quality web applications

• You are a team player and enjoy collaborating with others to achieve common goals

Who You Are:

You’re a builder and operator who thrives in fast-moving, high-accountability environments. You take pride in getting things done — thoughtfully, efficiently, and without drama. You’re energized by ambiguity, skilled at bringing clarity, and comfortable flexing between strategy and execution.

You value feedback — giving it, receiving it, and acting on it — and you see collaboration as a competitive advantage, not a burden. You’re low-ego but high-agency: you care about winning as a team more than being right individually. You move quickly, communicate directly, and make decisions grounded in impact and data.

You don’t need constant direction — you create momentum. You take ownership for outcomes, and you expect the same from those around you.

How We Operate:

We move fast, work smart, and hold ourselves to a high bar. Axion isn’t a 9–5 — it’s a place for people who take pride in their craft and are motivated by meaningful work. We respect time off and boundaries, but we’re also realistic: hard problems sometimes require weekend pushes or late-night thinking sessions. We support that balance — intensity with respect for recharge.

We stay highly collaborative and connected throughout the day — much of our communication happens over Slack. We move quickly, share feedback often, and keep discussions open so decisions and context flow freely. If you value crisp communication, rapid iteration, and a steady hum of collaboration, you’ll fit right in.

We:

• Collaborate deeply. Feedback is part of how we build — everyone has a voice, and ideas win on merit.

• Leave ego at the door. Titles don’t define value; contribution does.

• Bias toward action. We iterate fast and favor progress over perfection.

• Communicate with clarity. Direct, transparent, and always in service of the mission.

• Act like owners. Everyone is accountable for outcomes, not just tasks.

• Sustain excellence. We push hard but don’t glorify burnout — we’re in this for the long game.

If you want to help shape a company redefining how manufacturing operates — and you thrive in a culture that rewards ownership, speed, and candor — you’ll feel at home here

What We Offer:

• Work with cutting-edge AI technology making a tangible impact in manufacturing

• Collaborative, mission-driven team and supportive leadership

• Generous time off

• Competitive compensation, equity, and benefits

• Lunch stipend…. And much more
