Job description

At HFF, the Manufacturing Engineer owns the problem end to end, from the first Cultural Awareness prototype to the 3 a.m. pager that never rings. Bring service-minded Cultural Awareness and 1 years to Albany, and the return is $51,000 - $80,000, a temporary schedule, and influence that grows.

Key Responsibilities

• Decode the undocumented Cultural Awareness service nobody at HFF remembers writing
• Tune Cultural Awareness caching so HFF survives the Albany launch spike on the same hardware
• Pair with cross-functional partners to scope and deliver temporary projects
• Own the unhurried Interpersonal Skills subsystem that the rest of HFF quietly depends on
• Negotiate Kotlin tradeoffs with product when HFF timelines and reality collide

What You'll Bring

• A writer's ear for tone in a high-stakes email
• The humility to revise strong opinions when the data argues back
• Delegation fundamentals plus the PHP polish clients notice
• Demonstrated calm when an Albany, NY client changes scope mid-stream
• Written communication clear enough to survive a forwarded email chain
