West Lafayette: Software6

Jobs

Open West Lafayette software jobs

Every open software job across West Lafayette and the surrounding Greater Lafayette area — Tippecanoe County (West Lafayette and Lafayette, split by the Wabash) plus the Carroll and Benton county ring — pulled straight from each employer’s own careers feed and laid out plainly, with no aggregator noise in between. “West Lafayette” is just the name: the board is Greater-Lafayette-wide, so Purdue and the Research Park sit alongside the Lafayette-side employers. I keep it local and primary-sourced so wherever you are in the search, the next step is a little easier.

About this page

Every posting is classified into one of three AI buckets: AI required when the description names specific AI tools as required skills (GitHub Copilot, Claude Code, Cursor) or names LLM/agent/RAG/embeddings as core to the day-to-day; AI mentioned when the description mentions AI tooling in passing without it being the core skill; No AI mention when the description contains none of the relevant keywords. Each row shows the matched keyword evidence inline and surfaces named AI developer-productivity tools as expanded-row chips, so you can judge the signal for yourself.

The geographic filter is opinionated, and “West Lafayette” is only the label — the geography covers the whole Lafayette–West Lafayette MSA. Tippecanoe County postings — West Lafayette (Purdue, the Research Park / Discovery Park District), Lafayette (Subaru, Caterpillar, Wabash, State Farm), and the surrounding towns such as Battle Ground, Shadeland, Dayton (IN), Clarks Hill, and Americus — are always included and collapse to “West Lafayette.” So are postings across the MSA ring in Carroll County (Delphi, Flora, Camden, Burlington) and Benton County (Fowler, Oxford, Otterbein, Boswell). The neighboring Frankfort (Clinton County) and Kokomo (Howard County) areas are separate labor markets and intentionally out of scope. Remote postings are included only when the employer also has a Greater Lafayette office — otherwise anywhere-in-the-US remote noise would swamp the page. Use the Location filter to narrow to a specific city.

This page is an independent aggregation. Mungomash is not affiliated with or endorsed by any of the employers listed. Application-status tracking and email alerts are out of scope. Per-posting salary ranges are surfaced inline when the employer discloses one — structured ATS fields first, JD-body prose as a fallback; rows with no disclosed range render no chip.
