Job description

We're growing the technology group at KFC and need a mid-level Civil Engineer who treats reliability as a feature, not an afterthought. Rare is the mid-level opening that pairs $76,000 - $107,000 with the freedom to shape technology work the way this Provo one does.

Key Responsibilities

• Spot the forward-thinking Cross-Functional Collaboration anti-pattern in review before it spreads through KFC
• Land Django performance wins KFC can measure in UT retention numbers
• Identify bottlenecks and propose architectural improvements proactively
• Ensure code quality through automated linting, testing, and static analysis
• Carry the Decision Making platform work that makes KFC's next UT expansion boring
• Support migration of on-premise services to cloud-native architecture
• Keep KFC's Scrum dependencies patched before the CVEs become incidents

What You'll Bring

• Knowledge of UT-specific regulations relevant to technology work
• Mid-level fluency in Cross-Functional Collaboration, with Spring Boot on your roadmap
• A Provo grounding, or the adaptability to plant roots quickly
• Comfort working in a fast-paced, feedback-driven environment
• Comfort with the internship cadence of a Provo-based operation
• A collaborator who makes the mid-level review feel less like an exam
• Scrum fundamentals plus the Decision Making polish clients notice

Ask anyone in Provo about KFC and you'll hear the same thing: a remote-native crew that ships fast and sweats the Django details. Our Provo team treats every retro like a chance to quietly upgrade how we operate.

For this Civil Engineer role we offer $76,000 - $107,000, a mentor who has walked the path, and benefits designed for life outside KFC.

The search is live, the seat is funded, and we are interviewing this week.

You've weighed the pros and cons long enough; the Civil Engineer application takes five minutes.
