Job description

We don't need a Lead Software Engineer who knows everything about Vue.js; we need one curious enough to find out what they don't. Set against the usual technology listings, this part-time role at Production Technologies stands out for one reason — it pays $110,000 - $151,000 and trusts you.

Key Responsibilities

• Re-architect the technology flow so Negotiation handles ten times Rapid City's current load
• Pair with cross-functional partners to scope and deliver part-time projects
• Keep Production Technologies's CI/CD CI under ten minutes so Rapid City, SD engineers stay in flow
• Push Spring Boot changes safely behind flags so Rapid City, SD rollbacks take seconds
• Translate fuzzy product wishes from Production Technologies stakeholders into shippable Vue.js services
• Backfill Vue.js test coverage on the riskiest corners of Production Technologies's codebase
• Ship the high-growth Jest features that move Production Technologies's technology roadmap forward

What You'll Bring

• Comfort navigating ambiguity when the brief arrives half-written
• Comfort working in a fast-paced, gently-demanding environment
• Hands-on command of Jest, with Vue.js as a close second
• A Rapid City network, or the hustle to build one from scratch
• A candor-rich bias toward action, balanced by knowing when to wait

We started Production Technologies in a Rapid City garage because the technology status quo deserved a ruthlessly-focused reckoning. Trust, transparency, and steady momentum are the three things we protect above all else.

Think competitive $110,000 - $151,000, full benefits, a clear runway to grow your Spring Boot, and the latitude to work the way you work best.

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