The opportunity

Somewhere between the whiteboard sketch and the green deploy badge is the VP of Engineering role we're opening in Owensboro, KY. Read it as a $196,000 - $294,000 invitation to own technology work in Owensboro, backed by a vp title and 13 years of trust.

Key Responsibilities

  • Ship Git experiments fast, kill the losers, and double down on what sticks
  • Wire Git APIs to Creativity consumers so data lands where Owensboro teams expect it
  • Harden GrowthSphere Inc's Creativity auth so the KY audit comes back clean
  • Replace the brittle Linux hack with a Kafka solution that survives Owensboro scale
  • Build the Agile tooling that makes every other Owensboro engineer faster
  • Support migration of on-premise services to cloud-native architecture
  • Stand up observability so GrowthSphere Inc sees failures before customers in KY do

What You'll Bring

  • Hands-on experience with modern Kafka workflows and tooling
  • Strong time-management skills and a bias toward action
  • Comfort with contract arrangements and the rhythms of a delightfully-weird workplace
  • The reliability that lets a manager stop checking in
  • Comfort working in a fast-paced, scrappy-but-steady environment
  • Flexibility to adapt your approach as business needs evolve

Long obsessed with Creativity, GrowthSphere Inc has turned an Owensboro office into one of the high-trust centers of technology innovation in KY. We build psychological safety the boring way: by actually following through on what we say.

The bottom line: $196,000 - $294,000, mentorship, benefits, and flexibility, wrapped into a VP of Engineering role that grows as fast as you do.

We re-validated this opening today; GrowthSphere Inc is still on the lookout.
