Job description

We're a thoughtfully-bold technology shop in IL hunting for an Industrial Engineer who’d rather delete code than add it. Consider it a $49,000 - $74,000 foothold at Industrial Advantage Corp, where 1 years of PostgreSQL converts straight into technology ownership.

Key Responsibilities

• Ship Stakeholder Management experiments fast, kill the losers, and double down on what sticks
• Write the Ansible integration tests that catch regressions before Springfield, IL ships them
• Sketch the Ansible architecture, defend it in review, then build the thing
• Lead technical design reviews for junior technology initiatives
• Ensure code quality through automated linting, testing, and static analysis
• Profile and refactor legacy code to reduce technical debt over time

What You'll Bring

• The kind of ownership that treats the company's money like your own
• An appetite for ownership that scales with the stakes
• Solid understanding of technology best practices and industry standards
• Detail-oriented approach with a commitment to accuracy
• The instinct to ask "what would change your mind?" before debating
• Hands-on proficiency with PostgreSQL, ideally paired with Analytical Thinking
• Junior mastery of RabbitMQ, validated by people who'd hire you again

Industrial Advantage Corp is less a vendor and more a proudly-nerdy Springfield, IL workshop where Ansible and AWS get the attention they deserve. Diverse perspectives make our technology work sharper, and we deliberately seek them out.

You bring the Google Cloud; we bring $49,000 - $74,000, a mentor, a benefits package, and the freedom to grow on your terms in Springfield.

The team just got the green light to hire, and this Industrial Engineer role is first up.
