Since pioneering our first mobile, solar-powered units, our commitment to scrappy, hands-on innovation has made us an established leader and one of the fastest-growing companies in intelligent site technology. We are building the next generation of solutions—from our physical units in the field to a powerful Agentic AI platform—that allows our customers to gain unprecedented visibility and control over safety, compliance, and operations. This is your chance to join a cutting-edge team that isn't just watching the world change, but actively building the technology that is changing it.

We’re a team that’s focused on growth and innovation, and we’re proud that our crew, products, and leadership are being recognized for it.

A Top-Tier Growth Company: Named one of the Financial Times’ Fastest Growing Companies 2025 and #10 on the Inc. 5000 Rocky Mountain Regional list for 2025.
Innovative Leadership: Our CEO, Ryan Porter, was named an EY Entrepreneur of the Year 2025, and our CTO, Steve Lindsey, was inducted into the Silicon Slopes CTO Hall of Fame in 2024.
Product & Software Excellence: We were named one of The Software Report’s Top 100 Software Companies of 2023 and are a winner of the Security Today Govies Award for 2025.

ABOUT THIS ROLE

As a Software Engineer II at LVT, you will build, scale, and maintain the core server-side services and APIs that power our cutting-edge IoT and Agentic AI platforms. Working within a collaborative, fast-paced team, you will focus on high-performance Node.js architecture, robust database integrations, and reliable data delivery pipelines. This is an exceptional opportunity to sharpen your backend mastery, partner closely with senior engineers on complex system designs, and deliver critical software that bridges our physical field hardware with cloud intelligence.

This role is based full-time in-office out of our Headquarters in American Fork, Utah.

ROLE RESPONSIBILITIES

Backend Feature Delivery: Write clean, well-tested, and maintainable server-side TypeScript code utilizing Node.js and modern backend frameworks.
API Development & Integration: Design, build, and maintain scalable RESTful and GraphQL API endpoints that ensure secure, efficient data communication between edge devices, internal microservices, and client interfaces.
Data Layer Management: Work extensively with relational databases (such as MySQL), optimizing queries, managing schemas, and implementing ORM tools like Knex to maintain high data integrity and performance.
Bug Resolution & Debugging: Investigate, reproduce, and resolve backend defects across the server architecture, ensuring continuous service stability and seamless platform performance.
Testing & Quality Assurance: Write and execute robust unit and integration tests to guarantee server-side reliability, performance under load, and zero-regression deployments.
Performance Monitoring & Observability: Utilize modern observability and logging tools to track backend system health, monitor API latencies, and proactively identify performance bottlenecks.
Collaborative Teamwork: Actively participate in Agile ceremonies, backend design reviews, sprint planning, and constructive code reviews to elevate engineering quality across the team.

OUR IDEAL CANDIDATE

3-5 Years of Professional Software Engineering Experience: A proven track record of shipping production-grade, server-side code within a modern software engineering environment.
Strong Server-Side TypeScript & Node.js Mastery: Hands-on experience building backend applications, microservices, or asynchronous architectures using Node.js and TypeScript.
API Architecture Experience: Practical experience developing, documenting, and consuming APIs using REST patterns, GraphQL schemas, or gRPC.
Solid Data Layer Competency: Strong working knowledge of relational databases (e.g., MySQL, PostgreSQL) and experience utilizing ORMs or query builders (e.g., Knex, Prisma).
Development & Infrastructure Tooling: Comfortable working with version control (Git), containerized environments (Docker), and participating in automated CI/CD deployment pipelines.
System Testing & Reliability Practices: Practical understanding of backend testing frameworks, API testing methodologies, and basic application monitoring/logging strategies.
Curious & Collaborative Mindset: A strong team-first attitude with a proactive drive to solve complex technical problems, expand backend skills, and accept mentorship from senior team members.
