Job description

You can write Emotional Intelligence that works or Node.js that lasts; our Game Developer role at Retail Excellence Corp is for engineers who insist on both. Put your 3 years of experience to work in a $109,000 - $147,000 role with ownership, mentorship, and room to grow.

Key Responsibilities

• Integrate third-party services and internal tools into the Retail Excellence Corp stack
• Translate fuzzy product wishes from Retail Excellence Corp stakeholders into shippable Node.js services
• Automate build, test, and deployment pipelines for faster release cycles
• Refactor the technology module Retail Excellence Corp has been afraid to touch
• Turn Retail Excellence Corp's Multitasking on-call noise into alerts that actually mean something
• Chase down the Emotional Intelligence integration that silently drops Retail Excellence Corp events at midnight

What You'll Bring

• Comfort defending a recommendation in front of skeptics
• Fluency in Node.js earned the hard way, not just from a tutorial
• A collaborator's reflex to share credit and absorb blame
• Sharp written and verbal communication, tested under scrutiny
• The judgment to say no to good ideas at the wrong time
• 5+ years building trust the slow, unglamorous way

Three things define Retail Excellence Corp: a Cambridge address, a data-driven culture, and a near-religious devotion to REST API. Our Cambridge office prizes the quiet contributor who makes everyone around them measurably better.

Expect $109,000 - $147,000, a hybrid Cambridge office, generous PTO, and leaders who treat your development as a real priority.

Pulled forward to the top of the queue today, so your timing is good.
