Job description

We believe great engineers ship great software, so we are hiring an Environmental Engineer who lives and breathes PostgreSQL. Where most technology jobs cap your reach, this Nestle one in Tucson pays $56,000 - $77,000 and widens it the longer you stay.

Key Responsibilities

• Reproduce the warm-yet-rigorous bug from the Tucson field report, then make it impossible again
• Translate unpretentious business requirements into technical specifications and tasks
• Prototype rough Project Management ideas fast, then decide which earn a place in Nestle's stack
• Keep the technology PostgreSQL service humming through Tucson's holiday traffic surge
• Trace a craft-focused technology bug across three PostgreSQL services to the one bad line
• Ship the safety-first Java features that move Nestle's technology roadmap forward
• Translate technology compliance rules into Flask guardrails baked into the build
• Drive the Docker incident postmortem that stops the Tucson outage from recurring

What You'll Bring

• Familiarity with the rhythms of an ego-light internship team
• The kind of ownership that treats the company's money like your own
• Demonstrated Java expertise in a fast-moving technology environment
• Comfort with internship arrangements and the rhythms of a refreshingly-candid workplace
• A growth mindset and openness to constructive feedback

The team at Nestle is small, high-growth, and entirely convinced that Tucson is the best place to reinvent technology. We'd rather hear hard truths in the hallway than polite fictions in the all-hands.

The salary is $56,000 - $77,000, the mentorship is hands-on, the benefits are real, and the flexibility is the part you will brag about.

We just reopened this Environmental Engineer req and are eager to meet new people.
