Exploring a concept.

I'm hiring a former founder for a very important role here at RMFG Head of Factory Software. In person at our factory in Fort Worth, TX. This is an individual contributor role and you will be spending the vast majority of your time building software, not managing others. What are we doing? We're building the fastest contract manufacturer for robotics and advanced hardware companies. We're getting there by launching multiple online-first manufacturing capabilities and letting customers combine those into much more valuable assemblies, eventually full robots. We have a crazy roadmap and we've accomplished a ton with an insanely small non-production team (Me, one mech engineer, one former hardware founder leading growth, and one customer support person). It's very important to me that we keep this lean / scrappy DNA as we scale. Some reasons why you would want to work with us - We're growing incredibly fast. Revenue up ~10x since start of year. All important charts going up and to the right at a compounding m/m rate - We're growing (physically) incredibly fast. More than doubled factory floor space from 17k to 40k sq ft. This time last year we were in 4.5k sq ft. - We have cool customers. People putting stuff into outer space, nuclear technology, countless robot companies, guys making great money selling weird niche components that we make, public companies, and everything in between. - Your work will be immediately impactful and important. There will be days where you will push code changes that you physically can see the effects propagated to the floor quickly. Some days I know that I just made a multi-million dollar commit, seeing how much money it saves us on a process, or what rework it prevents, etc. - Your work will help make the American dream possible for hundreds of factory workers here at RMFG. Today we have ~20 production staff, and multiple are starting families and buying homes because of the work we provide. - Meaningful amounts of equity - We are a venture-backed hardware startup that is making more money than it burns (highly unusual) - A ton of incredibly smart people have backed us. (YC, Patrick Collison, Kyle Vogt, etc). - You will work on hard real world engineering challenges What I'm looking for - evidence of extraordinary software ability - someone who has touched grass - relentless, killer, ambitious founder mindset send me an email w/ evidence of your skills kenneth at domain name

After 7+ years of conducting user research, one of the most useful questions I can ask an expert during usability testing isn't: "What information do you need on this screen?" It's trying to piece out: What did they notice that I, or my team, didn't? Because that's usually where the product starts getting interesting. The oncologist sees something in a patient history that I wouldn't think to connect. The fraud analyst notices a combination of signals that individually look harmless. The security team knows which anomaly is noise and which one means stop everything. The supply chain operator sees one number change and already knows what might happen three steps later. Years of working in a domain creates this almost compressed way of seeing. You don't read everything equally. You pattern-match. You filter. You know what deserves attention. You know what can wait. And sometimes you know something is wrong before you can neatly explain why. A big part of my job is learning that language. Not enough to pretend I'm the expert. Enough to design a product that doesn't get in their way.

All young people entering design would do well to read the essay "250 things an architect should know" and consider why it includes what it includes (very little of which has to do with extracting the maximum value out of constructing a building) readingdesign.org/250-things
