on existing solutions and evaluating identifiable factors.
• Leadership & Impact: Lead small projects with manageable risks and act as a technical
mentor for junior team members.
• System Quality: Perform testing and debugging of applications while completing
documentation for installation and maintenance.
• Collaboration: Explain difficult or sensitive information and build consensus across
related teams to ensure successful project delivery.

What You Bring
• Technical Depth: In-depth conceptual and practical knowledge in your own job family
and a basic understanding of related fields.
• AI-Native Workflow: Mastery of AI agents and coding assistants (e.g., Cursor, GitHub
Copilot) to accelerate the development lifecycle and optimize code quality.
• Modern AI Proficiency: Hands-on experience implementing LLM-powered features
and utilizing RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) within enterprise software.
• Business Acumen: Awareness of the competition and the factors that differentiate
Trimble in the logistics market.
• Experience: Significant experience in software engineering, particularly within materials
management, financial systems, or mobile/cloud applications.
• Interpersonal Skills: The ability to network with senior internal and external personnel
in your area of expertise.

What We Offer

offering long-term influence and professional development.
• Impactful Work: Your work impacts a range of customer, operational, and project
activities across the globe.
