The opportunity

At LinkedIn, the best Node.js Developer isn't the one who writes the most code but the one whose MongoDB decisions age the gracefully. The mid-level role rewards what you've built — 5 years of TypeScript — with $85,000 - $120,000 and a voice in LinkedIn strategy.

Key Responsibilities

  • Document the Leadership system so the next mid-level engineer onboards in days, not weeks
  • Tune AWS caching so LinkedIn survives the Wilmington launch spike on the same hardware
  • Architect fault-tolerant distributed systems leveraging JavaScript and Time Management
  • Drive adoption of best practices in testing, security, and observability
  • Hunt down the latency spikes nobody at LinkedIn can explain
  • Maintain and improve CI/CD infrastructure across DE engineering teams
  • Own the full lifecycle of technology systems from prototype to production
  • Integrate third-party services and internal tools into the LinkedIn stack

What You'll Bring

  • Authorized to work in the United States without sponsorship
  • A growth mindset and openness to constructive feedback
  • Self-motivated and able to work independently with minimal oversight
  • Fluency across Python and REST API, with strong opinions on both
  • A collaborator's reflex to share credit and absorb blame
  • Critical thinking skills and sound, independent judgment

We built LinkedIn in Wilmington, DE to give technology teams the learning-obsessed tools they actually deserve. At LinkedIn feedback has a short half-life, delivered close to the moment it can still help.

Here in Wilmington, you'll enjoy $85,000 - $120,000, commuter benefits, and a mentor matched to your technology ambitions.

Reposted with today's stamp, the Wilmington, DE opening still needs filling.
