• Design, build, and optimize Node.js services and APIs using TypeScript .
• Develop cloud-native applications leveraging AWS Lambda, API Gateway, S3, and DynamoDB .
• Build platform services that integrate with audio products, mobile apps, and web clients .
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams in cloud, firmware, and product development .
• Implement CI/CD pipelines, automated testing, and observability tooling .
• Ensure reliability, performance, and security in all deployed services.
• Explore and integrate emerging technologies to extend Shure’s cloud ecosystem.

What You’ll Bring

• 5+ years of professional software development experience.
• Strong experience in TypeScript and Node.js (modern ecosystem).
• Deep understanding of RESTful API design , event-driven systems , and asynchronous programming .
• Hands-on experience with AWS serverless frameworks (Lambda, API Gateway, S3, DynamoDB).
• Familiarity with Angular or similar front-end frameworks (for integration and collaboration).
• Experience with CI/CD, Git-based workflows, Docker, and automated testing .
• Solid foundation in software design principles , performance tuning , and cloud reliability .

Nice to Have

• Exposure to C++ or embedded systems integration (for collaboration with IoT and firmware teams).
• Experience with GraphQL or WebSocket-based architectures.
• Knowledge of audio, communications, or hardware-integrated products .

Who You Are

• You build systems with clean architecture and long-term maintainability in mind.
• You’re comfortable owning complex services end-to-end from design through deployment.
• You enjoy collaborating across disciplines - from firmware engineers to product designers.
• You stay current with emerging technologies and find elegant ways to apply them.

Why You’ll Love Working Here

• Build software that powers industry-defining audio products used by millions globally.
• Work in a culture that values technical excellence, curiosity, and innovation .
• Join a company that’s employee-first and built to last - nearly 100 years of engineering heritage.
• Enjoy flexible hybrid or remote work , professional development, and international collaboration opportunities.

In Summary

This is a senior back-end / platform engineering role focused on TypeScript, Node.js, and AWS - not embedded programming.
If you’re passionate about building scalable, high-performance systems that connect physical products to the cloud, this is where your work will be heard.
