About the employer

• Innovapptive is a category-defining SaaS company building the world’s most advanced AI-powered Connected Worker Platform for the industrial sector.
• Headquartered in Houston, TX, and backed by Vista Equity Partners , Innovapptive is on a mission to reimagine how industrial work gets done — connecting frontline workers, back-office systems, and assets in real time to drive higher safety, reliability, and productivity.
• Our platform is trusted by some of the world’s largest enterprises — including Shell, Hess, Cenovus Energy, W.R.Grace, Westlake Chemicals, UNICEF, Kimberly Clark, Scott Miracle Gro, and Newmont Mining to name a few, and across chemicals, energy, mining, and manufacturing industries.
• These enterprises have achieved tangible, hard-dollar results, such as: Over $40 million in annual EBITDA savings at a single enterprise. 10× frontline productivity improvements through mobile-first and AI-enabled workflows. 15–20% maintenance cost reductions and significant uptime gains across plants and sites.
• Innovapptive is recognized by leading industry analysts for its differentiated value creation model: Named a Leader in the Frost & Sullivan Industrial Connected Worker Radar.
• Featured by Gartner in “Connected Factory Worker” research and the Hype Cycle for Manufacturing Operations Strategy.
• Cited by LNS Research for delivering 3–5× greater value than point solutions through unified OT–IT execution, AI/vision innovation, and field-proven ROI.
• Our growth is backed by Tiger Global Management and Vista Equity Partners , one of the world’s premier software investors, known for scaling high-performance SaaS companies.
• Together, we are building the next-generation AI Powered Connected Worker Platform, combining cutting-edge technologies — SLM’s, Generative AI, Computer Vision, and Intelligent Orchestration — into a unified system that transforms plant operations globally.
• Today, with over 300+ employees across the U.S., India, and ANZ , Innovapptive stands at a pivotal inflection point: with an ambition to scale to $100M ARR within the next 3-4 years by industrializing every aspect of our product, engineering, and customer delivery systems.
• The Opportunity When a technician in a refinery, a mine, or a chemical plant opens one of our apps, they are trusting that it works, every time, on a shift where the stakes are real.
• As a Staff Engineer , you are one of the people who earns that trust.
• This is a hands-on technical leadership role.
• You will not manage a team on an org chart.
• You will lead through the quality of your designs, the depth of your code, and the engineers you make better.
• You will own the technical direction of major areas of our Mobile and Web platform, set the engineering bar for the teams around you, and turn ambiguous business problems into simple, scalable, dependable solutions.
• You will work across our product suite and across the stack, from Node.js microservices and data models to Angular/React and React Native experiences, on AWS.
• You will also help us bring AI-enabled capabilities into products that frontline workers use every day.
• We believe quality depends on the people making the design decisions.
• At Staff level, you own the "-ilities": scalability, reliability, security, performance, and maintainability.
• You build them into the design instead of testing them afterwards.
