About the role
You'll take an enterprise from kickoff to a live IOI node, then put that node to work. You'll sit with IT, operations, and supply chain teams, map their ERP, warehouse, transportation, and sensor data into IOI's primitives, and build the automations that replace their manual coordination. Then you'll turn what you learned into connectors and playbooks so every next deployment goes faster.
You'll work with Phillip, our engineering leads, and our enterprise commercial team.
Your first 90 days
Ship a production integration that brings a major enterprise or fleet system into IOI, and know our primitives and node architecture cold.
Lead an IOI node deployment from discovery to production, with the first automated workflow live for that customer.
Own the technical relationship for two or three enterprises, and ship a reusable connector for a system you've now integrated more than once.
What you’ll do
- Deploy IOI nodes. Connect ERP, WMS, TMS, MES, and telemetry sources to customer-owned nodes in the cloud.
- Translate operations into primitives. Model a company's inventory, facilities, assets, and flows in IOI's common language.
- Automate industrial stacks. Find the manual coordination hiding in an operation and replace it with agent-driven workflows on IOI.
- Build what's missing. Write production-quality connectors, transforms, and EDI and API integrations.
- Be the customer's engineer. Run technical discovery, scope work, and earn trust with IT and operations leaders.
- Feed the protocol. Bring field insight back to the IOI and applications teams, and turn repeated work into product.
Skills you’ll need
- Hands-on integration with enterprise systems: ERP (SAP S/4HANA, Oracle), WMS (Manhattan, Blue Yonder), TMS (Oracle OTM, MercuryGate, or similar), or MES.
- EDI X12 (204, 210, 214, 856, 990) and transport methods such as AS2 and SFTP.
- REST and SOAP APIs, webhooks, and authentication schemes used in enterprise environments.
- Data mapping, ETL/ELT pipelines, and strong SQL.
- Production code in Java or TypeScript, plus Python for scripting and data work.
- Cloud deployment and infrastructure as code (Azure, Terraform).
- Technical discovery, scoping, and clear written documentation for customer stakeholders.
Nice to have: industrial telemetry protocols (MQTT, OPC UA); fleet telematics platforms (Samsara, Motive); workflow automation and LLM agent tooling; supply chain consulting or solutions engineering; manufacturing or warehouse operations experience.
Who you are
- 4+ years of production engineering, with significant customer-facing or implementation time.
- You stay calm in a room of skeptical IT architects and leave with a plan everyone agrees to.
- You like being the person who makes it actually work, on site if that's what it takes.
- You see patterns across deployments and want to turn them into product.
Compensation
$170K to $220K plus meaningful equity. Health, dental, and vision. San Francisco based, with 30 to 50% travel.
How we hire
- Meet Phillip, Oway's founder.
- Meet our engineering leads, usually one call with one or two people.
- A technical evaluation built around a real integration scenario, with details shared after step two.
About Oway
Oway is building the coordination OS for the physical economy. IOI connects the legacy systems industry runs on with fleets, factories and robots through one open schema, Juno is the industrial AI that acts on it, and Oway OS is where the work runs. We’re backed by Y Combinator and General Catalyst.
