Job description

Join our engineering team in Santa Clara and help us scale systems that handle traffic from across CA and beyond. The $159,000 - $210,000 is the floor, not the ceiling; with 7 years and technology ownership, this PepsiCo role keeps rising.

Key Responsibilities

• Re-architect the technology flow so React handles ten times Santa Clara's current load
• Scale data pipelines processing millions of events with Selenium
• Write clean, well-tested code that scales with PepsiCo's growing user base
• Wrangle Jest config across environments so Santa Clara staging mirrors production
• Ship the Selenium gloriously-unglamorous rewrite that pays down years of PepsiCo technical debt

What You'll Bring

• Curiosity and a continuous drive to sharpen your technology craft
• Demonstrated calm when a Santa Clara, CA client changes scope mid-stream
• The self-awareness to know which problems are yours to solve
• A communication style that translates jargon back into plain English
• Proven aptitude for Jest, ideally near Santa Clara, CA
• The patience to mentor without taking over the keyboard

Plenty of firms claim to do technology; PepsiCo actually does it, and from Santa Clara no less, with a safety-first stubbornness about quality. We keep our process light so engineers can spend their energy on Angular and Selenium, not bureaucracy.

Our PepsiCo offer is built to keep you: $159,000 - $210,000, coaching, benefits, and hours that flex around the CA life you want.

Right now we are scheduling first-round calls for Santa Clara, CA-based candidates.

We read every application that lands, so make yours count and tell us why Backend Developer is your fit.
