Lead Software Engineer - Hardware/3rd Party Integrations

Company Description

At Alertus, protecting people from harm is our mission and our passion. As the leader in mass notification, we are committed to providing customizable, scalable, and cost-effective solutions, as we know even a few seconds of warning can help save lives during an emergency.

Our employees are integral to the company’s success and impact countless people's lives, safety, and well-being. We aim for a positive, collaborative environment that allows employees to work across departments easily and effectively.

Job Description

In a crisis, information is the most valuable asset. When an emergency alert is triggered, the underlying technology must be invisible, instantaneous, and infallible. As the Lead Software Engineer for hardware/3rd party integrations, you aren’t just writing code; you are building the digital nervous system that protects lives.

You will lead a high-impact team responsible for the final, critical mile of our service: the delivery of audio via SIP, multicast data streams, and real-time alerts to a massive fleet of connected devices and desktop agents. This role sits at the intersection of complex SaaS architecture and physical hardware integration. If you are a systems thinker who enjoys bridging the gap between cloud services and real-world devices, your work here will have a direct, tangible impact on public safety.

Candidates must be located within driving distance from our Baltimore HQ.
