• Carry the Ruby platform work that makes LinkedIn's next WV expansion boring
• Build the Continuous Learning tooling that makes every other Charleston engineer faster
• Support migration of on-premise services to cloud-native architecture
• Evaluate and recommend new tools, frameworks, and REST API libraries
• Stress-test Continuous Learning systems until they bend, then harden where they cracked
• Partner with QA to define test coverage and catch regressions early
• Translate delightfully-weird business requirements into technical specifications and tasks
• Walk technology stakeholders through REST API tradeoffs in language LinkedIn execs grasp

What You'll Bring

• Proven aptitude for REST API, ideally near Charleston, WV
• Solid Jenkins grounding, plus Ruby you can pick up on the fly
• Self-direction that survives a quiet Slack channel
• Comfort being measured against a clear mid-level bar

What began as two engineers and a whiteboard in Charleston is now LinkedIn, a data-driven team obsessed with getting Redis right. We keep the Charleston, WV office quiet on Wednesdays so deep REST API work actually gets a fighting chance.

Our talent team is live and responsive, screening new resumes as they land.
