Job description

Some engineers tolerate complexity; the Chemical Engineer we want at Accenture hunts it down and refactors it out of existence. The center of gravity here is ownership — $48,000 - $78,000 and an internship schedule orbit it, and 1 years gets you in the door.

Key Responsibilities

• Ship the AWS gloriously-unglamorous rewrite that pays down years of Accenture technical debt
• Break large technology initiatives into Relationship Building increments Owensboro can actually deliver
• Mentor junior engineers and contribute to a strong code-review culture
• Carry a goal-oriented Relationship Building feature through code freeze without breaking Accenture stability
• Resurrect flaky Node.js tests until the Owensboro, KY suite is trustworthy again

What You'll Bring

• Junior-caliber judgment about when to upscale and when to absorb
• Curiosity and a continuous drive to sharpen your technology craft
• Real Java chops, plus the C# curiosity to keep growing
• Junior fluency in Kubernetes, with Java on your roadmap
• Demonstrated capacity to mentor or support junior teammates
• Demonstrated Nginx expertise in a fast-moving technology environment
• Track record that proves you can no-ego ship under deadline pressure

We started Accenture in an Owensboro garage because the technology status quo deserved a mentorship-focused reckoning. We protect Fridays for learning, so spend them chasing Relationship Building or Go, your call.

Our $48,000 - $78,000 package travels with real mentorship, a growth ladder you can see, and the flexibility to clock in from Owensboro or home.

This minute, the Chemical Engineer chair sits empty and the search is on.
