Senior Software Engineer – Full Stack Emulate, Inc. Location: Boston, MA — Hybrid (minimum four days per week in Boston office). Role Description: The Senior Software Engineer (Full Stack) designs, develops, and operates software that connects scientific instruments with cloud services and user‑facing applications. You will work across the stack—front end (TypeScript/React), back end (Go services/APIs), data and messaging, and instrument integration—to deliver reliable features that drive scientific workflows and insights. You’ll collaborate with Frontend, Backend, DevOps, and Instrument engineering teams to connect the dots across our architecture and translate user and system requirements into high‑quality, validated software. Report to: Director of Software Engineering, Platform Products department. Key Responsibilities Lead end‑to‑end delivery of features spanning embedded firmware and ROS/ROS 2 nodes: requirements, design, implementation, verification, release, and sustaining. Own end‑to‑end feature delivery across web front end, back end services, and instrument integrations. Partner with Product, Scientists, and cross‑functional stakeholders to clarify requirements and translate them into epics, stories, and acceptance criteria. Design and build secure, scalable APIs (REST/gRPC) and front‑end experiences that are resilient, accessible, and observable. Collaborate with instrument and embedded teams to enable robust data and control pathways between devices, desktop utilities, and cloud applications. Improve infrastructure, tooling, and developer experience (CI/CD, testing strategy, monitoring, documentation). Conduct design and code reviews; uphold engineering best practices, documentation standards, and validated change control. Maintain high bar for security and privacy across the stack; contribute to threat modeling and remediation. Create and maintain technical documentation that enables repeatability, auditability, and future development. Qualifications B.S. or M.S. in Computer, Electrical, Robotics, Mechanical Engineering, or related field. 4+ years of professional software engineering experience with senior‑level scope and autonomy; experience leading multi‑component projects. Experience building systems that interact with cloud services and APIs and deliver production web applications. Strong engineering fundamentals and SDLC practices (requirements, design, testing, CI/CD, observability, incident response). Knowledge of software security requirements and common frameworks; ability to design with security in mind. Excellent communication skills; able to collaborate with Scientists, Product, and multi‑disciplinary engineering teams. Hybrid work: able to be onsite in Boston at least 4 days per week. Technical Stack (experience in several of the following) Front end: JavaScript/TypeScript, React web applications. Back end: Go services/APIs (e.g., Echo), REST/gRPC, event‑driven patterns. Desktop: Electron/JavaScript (e.g., UtilityHub). Cloud: AWS (ECS, RDS, S3); infrastructure and CI/CD tooling. Data: Relational and non‑relational stores (MongoDB, Elasticsearch). Messaging/streaming: MQTT, Kafka; integration with connected instruments. Domain: Scientific instrument and data‑analysis applications; life‑sciences workflows. Ideal but Not Required Experience collaborating with embedded/firmware teams (C/C++, RTOS) and integrating device protocols. Experience with ROS. Strong testing practices across unit, integration, contract, and end‑to‑end; familiarity with validated environments. Performance profiling, accessibility, and usability best practices on the front end. Observability (metrics, logs, traces) and SLO‑oriented operations.
