Principal/Senior Software Engineer (Application Development)

Location: Houston, TX — Hybrid (3 days in person, 2 days WFH)

About Wise Rock

Wise Rock builds software that dramatically amplifies—rather than replaces—human capability. Today, that looks like lightning-fast data visualization for production engineers, integrating data from disparate systems into an intuitive web app to visualize production on a single screen, set accurate targets, categorize variance events, and collaborate cross-functionally. We’ve grown revenue 10x+ in the last two years, with 15%+ of onshore U.S. oil production managed on Wise Rock, and we’re still in our infancy—scaling in Oil & Gas and expanding to new industries. Our long-term vision includes launching a venture studio to extend our impact.

Why We Exist & How We Behave

Mission: To glorify God and reimagine work as we seek to bring flourishing to the world.

Values: Love, Courage, Humility, Integrity. We prioritize culture first, maintain a healthy 40–45 hr/week cadence, practice strategic generosity, think with a perpetual time horizon (not building to sell), and openly depend on God in our leadership practices.
