Software Engineer III (Back-end)

<div class="content-intro"><p><strong>Turning Space into a Transportation Layer for Earth</strong></p></div><h3>Who We Are:</h3> <p><span data-contrast="none"><span data-ccp-parastyle="Normal (Web)"><span class="ui-provider a b c d e f g h i j k l m n o p q r s t u v w x y z ab ac ae af ag ah ai aj ak">Eras of humanity can often be defined by a dominant transportation mode - horse drawn chariots, ocean going boats, or aircraft. These were spurred by a small group of people rigorously focused on building technology to achieve faster access to more of the world. We seek to usher in a new era of humanity defined by universal access to the whole globe free of borders and the presence of a routine way from space to Earth. To do this, we are building highly maneuverable re-entry vehicles that can loiter in orbit before precision landing back on Earth. </span></span></span></p> <p></p> <h3 id="About-the-Role" data-renderer-start-pos="686">About the Role</h3> <p data-renderer-start-pos="702">As a Back-end Engineer at Inversion, you will work as part of the simulation team to design, develop, and maintain the architecture and server-side logic of the applications that support the simulation and test environments for our flight systems. The simulation team is responsible for ensuring that flight software and flight hardware can be continuously integrated and tested under realistic flight conditions. You will play a key role in the design and development of data management and self-service tools that will enable fast, repeatable development and deployment workflows across the engineering stack. Your work will empower Inversion’s engineering teams to iterate rapidly throughout the development life cycle and will strengthen Inversion’s ability to put our products into the hands of our customers with unprecedented speed and agility.</p> <h3 id="What-You'll-Do" data-renderer-start-pos="1555">What You'll Do</h3> <ul> <li data-renderer-start-pos="1573">Design, deploy, and maintain the server-side logic and infrastructure of the applications that support simulation workflows, including <strong data-renderer-mark="true">high-performance computing (HPC)</strong>, <strong data-renderer-mark="true">software-in-the-loop (<span data-highlighted="true" data-vc="highlighted-text"><span class="_kqswh2mm"><span class="_5pioz8co _189eyh40 _1il9buyh _19lcevot _d0altlke" data-testid="definition-highlighter">SIL</span></span></span>) testing</strong>, and <strong data-renderer-mark="true">hardware-in-the-loop (<span data-highlighted="true" data-vc="highlighted-text"><span class="_kqswh2mm"><span class="_5pioz8co _189eyh40 _1il9buyh _19lcevot _d0altlke" data-testid="definition-highlighter">HIL</span></span></span>) testing</strong></li> <li data-renderer-start-pos="1820">Select a <strong data-renderer-mark="true">back-end tech stack</strong> that ensures the performance and scalability of our applications</li> <li data-renderer-start-pos="1917">Design and implement a <strong data-renderer-mark="true">back-end architecture</strong> that strikes the right balance between simplicity and flexibility</li> <li data-renderer-start-pos="2031">Design and develop <strong data-renderer-mark="true">databases architectures</strong> and <strong data-renderer-mark="true">data pipelines</strong> to meet <strong data-renderer-mark="true">configuration and data management</strong> needs</li> <li data-renderer-start-pos="2144">Leverage self-documenting API tools and technologies to develop robust and efficient <strong data-renderer-mark="true">APIs</strong></li> <li data-renderer-start-pos="2237">Leverage modern <strong data-renderer-mark="true">web frameworks</strong> to develop <strong data-renderer-mark="true">server-side logic</strong></li> <li data-renderer-start-pos="2300">Work with front-end engineers to <strong data-renderer-mark="true">integrate</strong> the front-end with the back-end and <strong data-renderer-mark="true">deliver</strong> a smooth <strong data-rendere ...
