Job Summary
Sunderstorm is leading the technology charge in cannabis, one of the most exciting and fast moving industries today. We are expanding rapidly both domestically and internationally, and our technology team plays a critical role in keeping us ahead of the curve. We are seeking a full stack Software Engineer to join our team, reporting to the Data Science & Systems Manager, who will maintain and enhance critical internal tools while also taking on new projects that drive innovation and efficiency across the company.
This role is designed for someone who thrives on variety and creativity. You will work on tools that are core to our operations, such as production scheduling automation, Slack based applications, and user friendly ERP interfaces that allow non technical users to interact with Acumatica. At the same time, you will have the opportunity to create new solutions including integrations and custom AI applications, exploring ideas that make our systems smarter, faster, and more connected. Many of your projects will be self driven, giving you the space to learn new technologies and propose tools or features that improve how we work.
This is a hands-on full stack development position with exposure to backend and frontend technologies and cloud environments including AWS and GCP. You will partner with the Data Science Manager to shape priorities and may collaborate with the Analytics Engineer when data requirements are needed for web tools or features. If you enjoy solving problems, building creative solutions, and having a direct impact on a growing and innovative business, this role will give you the freedom to own projects, explore ideas, and make a difference.
