The opportunity

Code that ships to millions starts as a pull request on someone's screen, and at Consulting Advantage Corp we want that someone to be our next Principal Software Engineer. The shape of it is simple — bring 10 years and JavaScript, take home $186,000 - $269,000, and grow into whatever Consulting Advantage Corp builds next.

Key Responsibilities

  • Translate Cypress metrics into the one chart Consulting Advantage Corp leadership checks each morning
  • Collaborate with product and design teams to ship features end to end
  • Own the Python release that Newark leadership has circled on the calendar
  • Pull Consulting Advantage Corp's Multitasking stack out of the NJ region before the migration deadline
  • Prototype rough Time Management ideas fast, then decide which earn a place in Consulting Advantage Corp's stack
  • Drive adoption of best practices in testing, security, and observability

What You'll Bring

  • The integrity to flag your own mistakes first
  • Principal-caliber judgment about when to escalate and when to absorb
  • 8+ years owning outcomes, not just completing tasks
  • Hands-on Linux experience that survives a whiteboard interview

Run from a single floor in Newark, NJ, Consulting Advantage Corp is an oddball-friendly reminder that technology breakthroughs still start small. We give people autonomy early and trust them to ask for support when they need it.

Here you earn $186,000 - $269,000 while a dedicated mentor helps you grow from principal into ownership, all wrapped in benefits worth keeping.
