We're representing a Pennsylvania-based Software Engineer with 7+ years of software development and MES experience across enterprise and manufacturing environments. He brings a strong combination of modern application development and hands-on knowledge of the systems that keep manufacturing operations connected and moving.
His experience spans C #/.NET, React, Node.js, TypeScript, JavaScript, and REST APIs, along with strong database expertise across Oracle PL/SQL, MS SQL, MySQL, and Azure SQL. More importantly, he understands how those technologies translate to the plant floor, supporting production tracking, work-order ex*****on, traceability, OEE, and shop-floor digitization.
With additional experience across Azure, Azure AI, GitHub, CI/CD, and Agile development, plus a Master's in Information Systems, he brings the technical versatility to help manufacturers modernize MES environments, improve connectivity, and build more scalable solutions.

Work completed isn’t the same as progress made.
The difference is the result it creates.
This week, we’re highlighting the fifth and final value that guides how we show up at Relate Search: Drive Meaningful Results.
What we do makes a difference. We take ownership for delivering outcomes that create real progress for people and businesses.
For us, that means staying focused on the outcome, holding ourselves accountable for the progress we create, and choosing long-term success over short-term wins.
In search, a placement may be the immediate result, but the real impact goes further. It’s the person who strengthens a team, the leader who helps move a business forward, or the opportunity that changes the direction of someone’s career.
Because success isn’t measured simply by how much work gets done.
It’s measured by what moves forward because of it.
What does driving meaningful results look like in your work?

Relate Search has partnered with a growing consumer goods and packaging services company to identify a Software Engineer who will become the primary developer for its internally built business applications.
This is an opportunity to see your work make a visible impact. You'll build technology that connects operations across the business and ultimately helps turn creative concepts into physical products for some of the world's leading consumer brands.
You'll own and evolve internal applications, build new tools, integrate with existing business systems, and work directly with stakeholders to identify where technology can improve workflows and support growth. You'll also have a meaningful voice in the company's broader technology strategy, helping shape the systems and tools it builds next.
The ideal candidate brings full-stack experience with React, PostgreSQL, and AWS, along with the curiosity and ownership mindset to thrive in an entrepreneurial environment. Experience using AI-assisted development tools is also a plus as the organization looks for smarter, faster ways to build.
If you're a Software Engineer who wants more ownership, more visibility, and a closer connection between what you build and the business impact it creates, we'd love to connect.

Relate Search has been retained to identify an HR Manager for a manufacturing organization in Arkansas City, AR.
This is a strong opportunity for an HR professional who wants to broaden their experience and continue developing as a well-rounded HR leader. Working alongside an experienced Senior HR leader who is highly invested in developing talent, you'll gain exposure across nearly every aspect of the function, including employee and labor relations, talent management, recruiting, payroll, benefits, training, and organizational initiatives.
You'll be embedded directly in the operation, partnering with supervisors, employees, and plant leadership to solve problems, strengthen engagement, and support a 24/7 manufacturing environment. The role also provides meaningful exposure to a union environment, making it an excellent opportunity to deepen your labor relations experience while building strong relationships across the workforce.
With a lean HR structure, this isn't a role where you'll operate on the sidelines. You'll quickly take ownership, become an important partner to the operation, and have the opportunity to continue expanding your capabilities and influence.
If you're an HR professional with manufacturing experience who's looking for broader exposure, strong mentorship, and the opportunity to grow, we'd love to connect.

Good guidance doesn’t start with having all the answers.
It starts with knowing which questions to ask.
This week, we’re highlighting another value that guides how we show up at Relate Search: Guide with Insight.
We combine discernment, curiosity, and experience to focus on what truly matters and guide better decisions.
For us, that means looking beyond the obvious. Asking thoughtful questions. Simplifying complexity. And bringing perspective grounded in experience, not assumption.
In search, our value isn’t simply finding talent. It’s helping clients understand the market, challenge assumptions, make informed decisions, and move forward with confidence. The same applies to how we support candidates and one another.
Because expertise matters most when it helps someone see more clearly.
What does guiding with insight look like in your work?
