Software Developer

Position Summary

Factory6 is a cGMP dietary-supplement and nutraceutical contract manufacturer that builds its own software in-house rather than buying off-the-shelf systems. Our flagship is a live, Quality Management System (QMS) covering incoming-material verification, finished-product release, in-process checks, environmental monitoring, stability, deviations and CAPA, supplier qualification, internal audits, and 21 CFR Part 11 electronic signatures.

Around that core we are building a connected estate of systems on one shared platform: an internal ERP that serves as our operational source of truth, a pre-sales and R&D workspace, a front-of-house visitor and floor system, a mobile AI assistant, and an analytics warehouse. We are seeking a full-stack developer to continue building this platform alongside the team, shipping new modules end-to-end and hardening the regulated core the business relies on every shift. This is a hands-on build role, onsite with the quality, sales, warehouse, and production teams who use the software daily, and a central part of the job is translating “how we actually do this on the floor” into well-designed, compliant features.

Systems You’ll Support & Build

One platform, several focused apps on their own subdomains so each can evolve without destabilizing the others. Some are in production today; others are mid-build or on the roadmap — that is where this role comes in.

Key Responsibilities

Feature Development & Delivery

• Own features end-to-end: database schema and Row-Level Security, server API routes, and the React UI, across the platform, not just one layer.
• Design and write Postgres migrations: apply to staging then production and maintain an explicit migration ledger. Schema mistakes on a regulated system are expensive. The use of AI code writing is strongly encouraged but knowledge of code is fundamental.
• Review, test, and ship through pull requests with CI. (deploy to production frequently and deliberately. Testing in staging deployment environment.

Data Integrity & Compliance

• Treat the audit trail as a feature: every record change attributable, audit-logged, and, where required, electronically signed.
• Protect regulated data: build features that cannot quietly lose or alter records, and design for “what happens if this fails halfway.”
• Translate compliance into software: turn cGMP and 21 CFR Part 11 / Part 111 requirements into concrete controls.

Systems Integration

• Build the seams between systems. QMS to ERP, ERP to QuickBooks, every app to the analytics warehouse, and transactional email, so the estate stays one coherent system instead of disconnected silos.
• Design tenant and role isolation with RLS, for example a customer portal where each brand sees only its own COAs and orders, and nothing internal.

Collaboration & Domain Partnership

• Work directly with non-technical domain experts (QA managers, lab technicians, line operators) to scope requirements and design the right workflow.
• Partner with the VP Operations on architecture, own integration seams, and progressively take load off.
