Job Description:

Your Work Shapes the World at Caterpillar Inc.

When you join Caterpillar, you're joining a global team who cares not just about the work we do – but also about each other. We are the makers, problem solvers, and future world builders who are creating stronger, more sustainable communities. We don't just talk about progress and innovation here – we make it happen, with our customers, where we work and live. Together, we are building a better world, so we can all enjoy living in it.

Cat Digital is the digital and technology arm of Caterpillar Inc., leveraging the latest technologies to build industry leading digital solutions for our customers and dealers. With over 1.5 million connected assets worldwide, our teams use data, technology, advanced analytics, telematics, and AI capabilities to help our customers build a better, more sustainable world.

Job Summary We are seeking a Lead Angular Developer to drive the design and development of next-generation, tablet-first applications that enable and visualize autonomous systems. This role serves as a technical leader across multiple teams, shaping scalable frontend architecture and delivering intuitive, high-performance user experiences.

You will work at the intersection of real-time systems, interactive visualization, and industrial autonomy, leveraging modern web and hybrid mobile technologies to build applications used in the field, including integration with advanced simulation platforms such as NVIDIA Omniverse for digital twin and 3D visualization experiences.

What You Will Do:

  • Own and define frontend architecture across teams, including UI frameworks, state management, and application structure
  • Design and deliver tablet-first applications using Angular and Ionic/Capacitor, with support for mobile and console-like environments
  • Build interactive, real-time user interfaces that visualize and control autonomous systems using live data and AI-driven outputs
  • Drive performance optimization for responsive, low-latency behavior across constrained devices (tablets and mobile)
  • Establish engineering standards, reusable components, and best practices for long-term scalability
  • Lead technical design reviews, guide implementation, and mentor engineers across teams
  • Collaborate with product, UX, backend, and AI/robotics teams to deliver integrated solutions
  • Ensure quality through automated testing, CI/CD pipelines, and application observability
  • Drive AI-augmented delivery using Spec-Driven Development (SDD) and coding assistants such as Claude Code/Claude to accelerate design, implementation, review, and testing while maintaining engineering rigor
  • Establish team practices, guardrails, and quality gates for AI-assisted engineering — including prompt/spec patterns, review workflows, and verification standards for AI-generated code

What you will have:

  • Decision Making and Critical Thinking: Knowledge of the decision-making process and associated tools and techniques; ability to accurately analyze situations and reach productive decisions based on informed judgment.
  • Software Integration Engineering: Knowledge of software integration processes and functions; ability to design, develop and maintain interfaces and linkage to alternative platforms and software packages.
  • Software Product Design/Architecture: Knowledge of software product design; ability to convert market requirements into software product design.
  • Software Product Technical Knowledge: Knowledge of technical aspects of a software product; ability to design, configure and integrate technical aspects of software products.
  • Software Product Testing: Knowledge of software product testing; ability to design, plan, and execute testing strategies and tactics to ensure software product quality and adherence to stated requirements.

Consideration for top candidates:

  • Experience in software engineering, with strong expertise in frontend architecture
  • Experience leading a team of engineers
  • Strong experience with Angular, RxJS, and state management (NgRx or similar) JavaScript/TypeScript and modern frontend design patterns
  • Hands-on experience building hybrid mobile applications using Ionic + and capacitor performance optimization for mobile/tablet environments
  • Experience integrating real-time data systems (WebSockets, event-driven architectures)
  • Experience with cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, GCP) and backend systems (Node.js or similar)
  • Hands-on experience leveraging AI coding assistants (Claude Code, Copilot, Cursor, or similar) in production delivery, including agentic workflows and tool/MCP integrations
  • Experience with Spec-Driven Development (SDD) or equivalent spec-first methodologies that pair executable specifications with AI-generated implementations

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
