Job Description

Senior/Staff/Principal Software Developer

INNOVASEA | Aquatic Solutions Built for Life

Innovasea is revolutionizing aquaculture by combining technological skill with hands-on industry expertise to deliver innovative, end-to-end solutions that maximize grow-out from egg to harvest – whether on land or in the open ocean.

While our systems are precision engineered around each customer’s unique setting, production, and monitoring needs – and built to withstand the harshest environments – the outcomes of our work are uniform: Optimized species health. Scaled-up operations. Stable equipment costs. And a partner who’s invested in seeing the customer succeed. Today. Tomorrow. For life.

Role and Responsibilities

We are looking for a savvy Software Developer to join our growing team where you’ll participate in application development from ideation to deployment. You’d be joining a team which builds the entire stack of our web and mobile products we deliver to our customers. That gives us flexibility in onboarding a new member towards either backend or frontend areas depending upon your expertise – we are a very collaborative team.

  • You are self-directed and comfortable working within a team
  • You want to build solutions that people use
  • You are excited to always be learning and growing your skills
  • You give and take feedback graciously

We interact with valuable team members across time zones, so we are always operating digitally, but we also value in-person collaboration, aiming to get just the right balance of focus and interaction with a hybrid work schedule.

Reporting to the Director of Software Engineering of our Aquaculture Intelligence division, the level of this role can be flexed according to the right applicant. We are looking for someone with a great track record of experience that would lend to a senior or higher role.

The developer will support initiatives to ensure the delivery and operation of our solutions by:

  • Creating and maintaining SaaS offerings
  • Work with stakeholders to drive and meet requirements
  • Work with stakeholders to innovate and create smart applications
  • Automate, optimize and design scalable infrastructure and services
  • Build consensus around patterns and technologies our team uses
  • Look for opportunities to evolve our software architecture to remain nimble and efficient
  • Mentor and support other members of the team

Our team builds a backend system primarily in Java and frontend apps primarily in Angular. We have space on our team for this role to target one of those areas specifically or could also onboard someone who wants to work across the full stack.

Required Skills and Experience Education

  • Development experience for both mobile and cloud-based solutions
  • Understand the fundamentals of front-end languages such as HTML, CSS and JavaScript
  • Knowledge of RESTful Web Services, APIs using JSON, and WebSocket communication
  • A solid handle of C-style programming languages
  • Knowledge of cloud services (e.g., AWS, Azure, GCP)
  • Effective communication

Education

Degree in Computer Science or Engineering. Relevant experience and skillset will be considered.

Preferred Technical and Professional Expertise

  • Angular experience
  • Java, particularly in combination with Springboot/Project Reactor
  • Message queuing, stream processing and scalable data stores, particularly around Kafka
  • Knowledge of MongoDB and time series databases
  • A long history with building on the web – you’ve seen where our tools have come from and know which upcoming ones are a passing fad
  • Masters or Higher Degree in an applicable field

Benefits of the Job

  • Competitive salary commensurate with experience
  • Comprehensive benefits including medical, dental, vision, life and disability
  • Paid time off and holidays
  • Employee Assistance Program (EAP)
  • Pension plan
  • Hybrid schedule
