Senior Software Engineer - Wizard Software Engineering · Salt Lake

Senior Software Engineer – Application Wizard (Software Engineering) – Salt Lake City

Are you driven by curiosity and obsessed with building technology that hasn’t existed before? Do you want to engineer systems that fundamentally change how buildings think, adapt, and operate? At Passive Logic, we’re redefining autonomy and energy efficiency from the ground up—and we’re looking for a Senior Application Engineer ready to build real‑world systems that move the needle on sustainability at scale.

Passive Logic is the first fully autonomous platform for buildings. We’ve reinvented the fundamental principles of automation to democratize technology, optimize buildings, and reduce the world’s carbon footprint. We are a team of technologists, engineers, and creatives dedicated to making a sustainable impact through deployable solutions.

This is a career‑defining opportunity to play a crucial role in a hyper‑scale AI company that is transforming the future of autonomous systems, energy, and the built environment. As our Senior Application Engineer, you’ll play a pivotal role in building an ecosystem of local‑first web applications that enable Passive Logic’s autonomous systems platform. Our software applications enable users to collaboratively create physics‑based models of the components from which autonomous systems are comprised, simulate the buildings in which autonomous systems will run, and generatively design autonomous systems with a human‑centered interface to interact with their systems – no more black box AI.

We empower people to use AI to improve their work, and we encourage anyone who takes on this role to be open to improving their skills and their skills in using AI! At its core, our ecosystem is powered by Quantum, a schema for describing autonomous system Digital Twins, and Data Sync, a real‑time protocol for graph‑based client/server data synchronization.

We use empathetic Human‑Computer‑Interface (HCI) principles in our design, and Type Script, WebGL, SVG, and reactive dataflow in our code. As part of our long‑term vision, we are developing constraint‑based layout engines, AI‑enabled generative design capabilities, and exploring the use of Swift compiled to Web Assembly to improve the usability of our code across many platforms.

• Design and Implement Front End Architecture: Lead the design and implementation of front end architecture to support native‑quality web applications for multi‑platform deployment.
• Contribute Across Teams: Collaborate cross‑functionally to build our technology and celebrate our shared successes. Be impact‑driven, seek to be a good employee, neighbor, and global citizen.
• Optimize Systems‑level Performance: Be a systems‑level thinker who researches before they act and values sound processes and broad thinking.
• Prioritize Execution, Stability, and Velocity: Focus on delivering short‑term wins while maintaining a long‑term vision within our shared architecture. Take pride in the impact of our products and in delivering a "wow" customer experience.
• Nerd Out About Your Craft: Dive deep into the details and continuously refine your expertise.

While we have a set of core qualifications, we are open to candidates who demonstrate passion, learning agility, and a love for the work. Below are the minimum requirements:

• Proven experience
  • Experience in software engineering, computer science, front‑end web‑application development, or a related field.
  • Strong JavaScript, Type Script, or Swift experience.
  • Strong algorithms, data structures, and coding background.
  • Experience with user interface frameworks (e.g., Angular, React, Vue, Swift UI).
  • Extraordinary teammate with excellent interpersonal skills.
• Exceptional communication skills: Ability to collaborate across teams, clearly communicate technical concepts to non‑technical stakeholders, and document solutions effectively.
• Organized and strategic: Experience managing complex engineering projects, including timelines, scope, and deliverables, with attention to detail.
• Collaborative mindset: Use your skillset to work flexibly across multiple teams and applications.
• Adaptability: Com…
