The opportunity

If you've ever rewritten a function three times because the second version still bothered you, our Lead Software Engineer opening in Boston, MA will feel like home. You won't find a tighter fit if you've got 8 years, want $180,000 - $262,000, and crave a technology team that lets you lead.

Key Responsibilities

  • Evaluate and recommend new tools, frameworks, and Strategic Planning libraries
  • Mentor the lead cohort through their first real Cypress on-call at Strategic Solutions Inc
  • Architect fault-tolerant distributed systems leveraging REST API and Cypress
  • Build responsive, accessible front-end interfaces with Elasticsearch
  • Bridge Teamwork and Elasticsearch so the two halves of Strategic Solutions Inc's platform finally talk
  • Tune database queries and schemas for high-throughput Strategic Solutions Inc workloads

What You'll Bring

  • Willingness to commute to Boston, MA or work flexibly as needed
  • Strong working knowledge of Elasticsearch and Teamwork
  • Proven track record delivering results as a Lead Software Engineer
  • Demonstrated calm when a Boston, MA client changes scope mid-stream
  • Experience thriving in a team-oriented, deadline-driven setting like Strategic Solutions Inc
  • High-growth problem-solving that doesn't wait for permission
  • Familiarity with Cypress and related tools or frameworks

What sets Strategic Solutions Inc apart is a refreshingly-candid team in Boston that treats every customer like a partner. We'd rather hear hard truths in the hallway than polite fictions in the all-hands.

You'll be supported by $180,000 - $262,000, strong health coverage, conference budgets, and a team that promotes from within.

The req cycled to active again moments ago for the Boston office.

We built this technology team on people who said yes, so say yes and apply.
