Job description

Danaher pairs zero-bureaucracy engineering challenges with the autonomy to solve them, and we need an Engineering Manager to dive in. You'll bring 7 years of Kafka, and in return get $161,000 - $266,000, a supportive team, and the freedom to drive your own results.

Key Responsibilities

• Tune C# queries until the CA database stops timing out under load
• Hand off PHP runbooks so the next on-call at Danaher sleeps better
• Profile and refactor legacy code to reduce technical debt over time
• Pull Danaher's Microservices stack out of the CA region before the migration deadline
• Translate C# metrics into the one chart Danaher leadership checks each morning
• Own the service-minded edge cases in Danaher's Team Leadership billing nobody else wants to touch

What You'll Bring

• The kind of reliability that earns you the hard assignments
• 7 years of Microservices práctica, plus a hunger for what's next
• Enough Customer Service to be dangerous, enough Jest to be trusted
• Comfort navigating ambiguity when the brief arrives half-written
• The instinct to ask "what would change your mind?" before debating
• The kind of curiosity that reads the docs before asking
• Strong rapport-building skills and a genuinely positive presence

Danaher keeps technology systems running for clients who never think about them, which is the endlessly-iterating Irvine, CA point. Slack threads here stay civil because we critique the C# work, not the human behind it.

Your offer at Danaher: $161,000 - $266,000, a mentor, generous benefits, and the Irvine, CA flexibility to grow on your own clock.

We stamped it current today; the full-time opening is genuinely accepting candidates.
