Software Developer

This is an onsite only role based out of Erie, PA.

For over 75 years, Purvis Industries is proud to be a family-owned and operated industrial distributor that does business the old-fashioned way: sell quality, top-tier manufacturers, know the products and the application challenges the products solve, and have the product available on the local branches' shelf. Today, the company has 101 locations in 17 states and is one of the largest independent bearing and power transmission distributors in the country. As we grow and continue to expand, our customers find that we stay true to what George Purvis told us more than 75 years ago: if you sell the best products, know the products and how to apply them, and keep those products on your shelf so you can take care of your customer, you will be successful. Let Purvis Industries show you how we put these principles into practice every day!
