Role Overview

This is a rare and unique opportunity for a technically strong, business-aware developer to build tools that truly move the needle-and then see their impact immediately.

As our Business Intelligence Developer, you'll go beyond just writing code. You'll work directly with Velox leadership to understand company goals and create software tools that empower field teams, reveal real-time performance, and improve decision-making across the organization.

You'll also take ownership of existing internal tools and systems, helping to maintain, improve, and adapt them as our needs evolve. Your work won't sit on a shelf-the tools you support will be used daily across project management, finance, field ops, and customer reporting.

Every solution you create or refine will help real people solve real problems. You'll see the results of your work daily and know that your contributions are helping an organization grow stronger, smarter, and faster.

This is an opportunity to be a core part of a fast-growing construction company, not just a service provider or a cog in the machine. You'll shape the digital infrastructure that underpins our operations and performance.

We value people who take ownership, stay curious, and want to be part of something bigger-and we give them the room and respect to build lasting impact.
