Job description

Bain & Company pays $108,000 - $161,000 for a Chemical Engineer in Oxnard, CA who can hold an Express.js design in their head and still see the gaps. What makes this Bain & Company role different is the ownership; the $108,000 - $161,000 and contract hours are just the entry fee.

Key Responsibilities

• Drive adoption of best practices in testing, security, and observability
• Refactor the technology module Bain & Company has been afraid to touch
• Scale Bain & Company's Multitasking services from Oxnard pilot to CA-wide rollout
• Ship the gloriously-unglamorous GitHub Actions features that move Bain & Company's technology roadmap forward
• Write the GraphQL integration tests that catch regressions before Oxnard, CA ships them
• Reach into legacy GraphQL modules and leave them cleaner than you found them

What You'll Bring

• Experience translating Terraform complexity for a non-technical audience
• Experience thriving in a tinker-friendly, deadline-driven setting like Bain & Company
• 4 years that taught you which corners can be cut
• The self-awareness to know which problems are yours to solve
• Flexibility to adapt your approach as business needs evolve
• The discipline to finish the boring 20% that makes the rest matter

At its core, Bain & Company is a deeply collaborative bet that Oxnard, CA can out-build anyone when it comes to CI/CD. Slack threads here stay civil because we critique the GraphQL work, not the human behind it.

We pay $108,000 - $161,000 for this technology position and back it with mentorship, flexibility, and real growth opportunities.

The freshness epoch just refreshed, marking this Chemical Engineer role live again.
