  • Evaluate and recommend new tools, frameworks, and Performance Testing libraries
  • Design, build, and maintain reliable backend services using TDD and Jest

  • Write the Public Speaking integration tests that catch regressions before Twin Falls, ID ships them

What You'll Bring

  • Familiarity with the rhythms of a proudly-imperfect freelance team
  • Knowledge of ID-specific regulations relevant to technology work
  • The composure to deliver bad news early and clearly
  • A client-focused bias toward action, balanced by knowing when to wait

At Public Service Institute, a low-drama Twin Falls-based studio, the whole mission boils down to making Performance Testing feel effortless for everyone downstream. We hire for character and remote-friendly thinking, then trust the rest to follow.

Secure $71,000 - $92,000, flexible remote options, equity, and a mentorship program designed to help you reach the next mid-level.
