Senior Software Engineer- Tech Lead

Dephy is looking for a candidate who was born to be an engineer: someone that has an urge to understand how things work, and who gets excited when there is no known solution to the problem at hand. This isn’t your typical Software Engineer role, this is an in person role. While we have flexibility in working hours and occasional work from home, we make wearable robotics which requires the software team to support engineers that are doing hands-on-work. Our culture of collaboration is important to us, so our team works in our Boxborough office.

We are curious, creative, and passionate engineers looking for a team member to help us tackle challenges at the forefront of wearable robotics. We are looking for a candidate interested in potential future leadership responsibilities that will help manage tasks, as well as mentor the software engineering team. Come help us transition mobility exoskeletons from labs and treadmills to the real world: cities, trails, and mountains.
