Software Engineer – Advanced Machine Tools

at Fairmount Technologies in Derby, Kansas, United States

Job Description

We’re looking for a Software Engineer to design and develop the applications that connect operators, machines, and control systems.

 

 

Regulatory Requirements

 

This position requires access to ITAR/EAR-controlled technologies.

Applicants must be U.S. citizens or lawful permanent residents (Green Card holders) and eligible for employment under U.S. export control laws.

Relocation to the Wichita / Derby, KS area is required.

 

 

What You’ll Be Working On

 

You’ll work on software that directly interfaces with real machines, including:

  • Designing and implementing graphical user interfaces (GUIs) and HMIs for automated machines

  • Developing software that communicates with PLCs and industrial control systems

  • Coordinating closely with Controls and Automation Engineers on system architecture and data flow

  • Writing robust, multi-threaded software for industrial PCs (IPCs)

  • Debugging, testing, and maintaining software running on deployed machine systems

  • Improving software performance, reliability, and security over time

  • Supporting hardware and system integration efforts

  • Collaborating on documentation and user support materials

 

This role focuses on industrial software tied directly to hardware, not purely abstract application development.

 

 

Why This Role Is Different

 

  • Small company → high ownership and visibility

  • Software that directly controls and enables physical machines

  • Close collaboration with controls, mechanical, and integration teams

  • Mix of development, debugging, and real-world deployment

  • Opportunity to influence system architecture as products scale

 

You’ll see your work go from code → machine → factory floor.
