Job description

Think of this Environmental Engineer job as a standing invitation to make McDonalds's Negotiation infrastructure faster, simpler, and less scary. If you have 5 years in technology, this remote job offers $70,000 - $103,000 plus the room to lead and grow.

Key Responsibilities

• Identify bottlenecks and propose architectural improvements proactively
• Tune Negotiation queries until the MO database stops timing out under load
• Build internal tooling that improves developer productivity and velocity
• Wire REST API APIs to Go consumers so data lands where Independence teams expect it
• Evaluate and recommend new tools, frameworks, and Go libraries
• Hunt down the latency spikes nobody at McDonalds can explain
• Re-architect the technology flow so Project Management handles ten times Independence's current load

What You'll Bring

• Proven Express.js judgment when the textbook answer doesn't fit
• Comfort owning technology decisions in a MO market
• The kind of reliability that earns you the hard assignments
• The kind of attention to detail that catches what spell-check misses
• Solid REST API grounding, plus Negotiation you can pick up on the fly
• Track record that proves you can scrappy ship under deadline pressure
• Customer-focused outlook with strong interpersonal skills

McDonalds is Independence, MO's answer to a technology industry grown lazy, run by a self-directed team that still cares about Microsoft Azure. Transparency is a habit, so roadmaps, tradeoffs, and even mistakes get shared openly.

We hand you $70,000 - $103,000, a growth plan, a mentor, and benefits, then let you flex your week to fit Independence the way you like.

Live this hour, the technology role remains open and unclaimed.
