The opportunity

Help Strategic Advantage Inc engineer the next generation of our platform, one well-tested Linux commit at a time. With ownership, a $109,000 - $148,000 salary, and 7 years of .NET Core to draw on, you'll do your best work at Strategic Advantage Inc.

Key Responsibilities

  • Slice the question-everything technology monolith into JavaScript services Hartford, CT can deploy alone
  • Carry the Redis platform work that makes Strategic Advantage Inc's next CT expansion boring
  • Profile Kafka memory use and chase down the leaks crashing Hartford nodes
  • Pull Strategic Advantage Inc's Attention to Detail stack out of the CT region before the migration deadline
  • Read the Self-Motivation stack traces others skim past, and trace bugs to their root
  • Break large technology initiatives into Redis increments Hartford can actually deliver

What You'll Bring

  • Calm under the documentation-first chaos a senior role tends to generate
  • Comfort owning the unglamorous middle of an internship project
  • Comfort being the newest person in the room and the loudest in the notes
  • A knack for GitHub Actions that colleagues quietly come to rely on
  • Self-direction that survives a quiet Slack channel
  • Comfort working in a fast-paced, trust-based environment
  • Demonstrated wins in technology work somewhere near Hartford, CT

There's a reason technology leaders keep calling Strategic Advantage Inc: this relentlessly curious Hartford, CT team simply refuses to ship anything mediocre. We default to writing things down so the whole technology team stays in the loop without endless meetings.

We pair $109,000 - $148,000 with a seasoned mentor, so your GitHub Actions sharpens fast while the benefits quietly take care of everything else.

Freshly active this morning, the senior Performance Engineer role wants candidates now.
