Job Description

SHI’s IDCS team is hiring a Software Engineer to build and maintain software for an integration and deployment automation platform used by integration technicians and engineers.

Responsibilities

Design, build, and maintain the operator-facing web application, including rack views, pipelines, dashboards, work orders, and approvals.
Develop backend services and REST APIs in Python using FastAPI or similar technologies to expose inventory data, device actions, and run status.
Build and extend a pipeline/DAG engine, including stage ordering, retries, parallel fan-out across devices, run history, and resume-from-failure behavior.
Implement real-time capabilities such as live run output, device status, and rack health using SSE or WebSockets.
Create and maintain CLI tools and a command router that dispatches actions by customer, device type, and OEM.
Build reusable libraries and frameworks with clear module boundaries and per-page front-end separation (avoid one-off scripts).
Own the schema and data access layer for the inventory database, including racks, devices, addressing, credentials, and run results.
Maintain inventory as the single source of truth for addressing and device identity to keep reads/writes consistent across tools.
Produce reporting outputs such as QC coversheets, command logs, and audit evidence for each run.
Integrate with vendor and infrastructure APIs, including Redfish, DHCP server APIs, and device CLIs over SSH.
Support heterogeneous hardware using a common adapter model, including:
- Dell, HPE, Lenovo, and Supermicro servers
- Cisco, Arista, and Juniper switches
- PDUs and console servers
Implement validation, timeout, and error-handling so hung or unreachable devices do not stall the platform.
Build automated checks to scan racks and servers for health issues and open work orders.
Add role-based access, audit logging, and secure credential handling to prevent plaintext secrets from being stored in code, logs, or API responses.
Implement approval gates so device-changing commands run only after explicit operator approval.
Write unit, integration, and end-to-end tests, and use Git branching and code review to deploy safely to production.
Deploy and support services on RHEL using gunicorn/uvicorn behind nginx, systemd, and log analysis.
Write documentation, runbooks, and SOPs.
Mentor junior engineers and interns.

Requirements

5+ years of professional software engineering experience.
3+ years hands-on Python development building production applications, services, or tooling (not primarily scripting).
Experience designing, building, and supporting REST APIs and web applications in production.
Experience designing and maintaining relational database schemas and the corresponding data access layer.
Experience deploying and supporting services on Linux in production.
Experience integrating with external systems through REST APIs and device interfaces such as SSH/CLI (or similar).
Experience writing automated tests and shipping through Git-based code review.
Strong Python skills, including typed, tested, production-quality code.
REST API design experience with FastAPI, Flask, Django, or similar.
JavaScript, HTML, and CSS experience, including modern front-end development without heavy framework dependence.
SQL and relational databases, including MariaDB/MySQL.
JSON/YAML.
Git including branching, pull requests, and code review.
Async and concurrent programming, including threads, async I/O, and parallel fan-out.
Linux administration experience, with RHEL preferred.
Bash/shell scripting.
SSH, systemd services, and package management.
Web server and reverse proxy fundamentals, including nginx and gunicorn/uvicorn.
Log analysis and troubleshooting.
TCP/IP, VLANs, and subnetting.
DHCP/DNS.
Network troubleshooting.
Understanding of enterprise server hardware, BIOS/UEFI, and firmware.
Out-of-band management technologies, including BMC, IPMI, and Redfish.
PXE/network boot concepts.
Secure coding and secrets handling.
Experience mentoring junior engineers.
