About this job
Software Engineer | Nox Metals | Detroit, MI
About Nox Metals. American factories deserve a supply chain that moves as fast as they do. Nox Metals is building it, along with the tools that run it. We’re a technology company in Metro Detroit supplying aluminum plate, bar, and rounds to aerospace and defense manufacturers. We use software and automation to supply metal to American factories faster than the industry thought possible.
The role. We're hiring a Software Engineer in Detroit to build the platform that runs our factories. Our stack is TypeScript end to end: NestJS, Next.js, React, and Supabase. You will write the software that quotes orders, nests parts, drives machines, manages inventory, and gives customers a live window into their work. You will ship to production constantly and watch your code move metal on the floor the same day.
You will:
· Own features end to end across the stack, from database schema to the screen
· Build and extend our core systems: the factory command platform, the nesting and quoting engine, the customer portal, and inventory and demand intelligence
· Wire software directly into saws, automation, and shop floor hardware
· Turn messy real world operations into clean systems that run themselves
· Use AI tooling aggressively to ship more in a day than most engineers ship in a week
· Spend real time on the factory floor so you understand the problems you are solving
· Take big, ambiguous problems and bring them all the way to done without being told how
You are:
· High agency and able to own large items alone, while asking for help when you need it
· Fast. You feel urgency and you move with it
· Organized enough to keep a lot of moving pieces straight at once
· Raw smart, with the horsepower to pick up new domains quickly
· Cracked with AI tools and always finding new ways to push them further
· Low ego and obsessed with the customer
· The kind of person who takes work off other people's plates and never says "that's not my job"
· Always bringing new ideas, often from outside the world of metals and manufacturing
· Mission driven, the kind of person who could see themselves building this for the next 30 years
· Wanting to be working outside normal hours to pursue our mission
Benefits:
· Equity in Nox Metals
· Company-paid medical, dental, and vision insurance
This role is full time, in person in Detroit.
Nox Metals is an equal opportunity employer. We hire based on skill, attitude, and fit for the work, and we do not discriminate on the basis of race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, age, disability, veteran status, height, weight, marital status, or any other protected status under federal, state, or local law.
