Job description

Our next Performance Engineer will spend less time in meetings and more time in Laravel, which is how TC Energy prefers to operate. This AR role reads like an upgrade — $57,000 - $80,000, part-time hours, 4 years valued, and a path that does not dead-end.

Key Responsibilities

• Identify bottlenecks and propose architectural improvements proactively
• Build Negotiation dashboards so TC Energy's technology team stops asking engineers for numbers
• Automate the manual Laravel chores that quietly drain Little Rock, AR engineering hours
• Document technical decisions, architecture, and APIs for the broader org
• Lead technical design reviews for mid-level technology initiatives
• Negotiate Spring Boot tradeoffs with product when TC Energy timelines and reality collide
• Own the mid-level Flask workstream that unblocks the rest of TC Energy's Little Rock, AR roadmap
• Reach into legacy Negotiation modules and leave them cleaner than you found them

What You'll Bring

• Mid-level mastery of Kotlin, validated by people who'd hire you again
• Self-direction that survives a quiet Slack channel
• At least 3 years building expertise within the technology space
• Flexibility to adapt your approach as business needs evolve

Out of a converted warehouse in Little Rock, TC Energy has quietly grown into an inclusive force shaping how technology gets done. Politics die fast at TC Energy because we put the awkward stuff on the table early.

For your Presentation Skills and 3 of grit, we offer $57,000 - $80,000, mentorship, benefits, and the flexibility to do Little Rock on your terms.
