Job description

The Performance Engineer we want has shipped AWS to production, broken it, and learned more from the second part than the first. The deal favors the seasoned — 4 years earns $79,000 - $118,000, a freelance arrangement, and a technology charter you'll actually own.

Key Responsibilities

• Tune Cypress caching so Financial Solutions survives the Providence launch spike on the same hardware
• Write the Cypress integration tests that catch regressions before Providence, RI ships them
• Troubleshoot and resolve production incidents across Node.js-based applications
• Translate fuzzy product wishes from Financial Solutions stakeholders into shippable Time Management services
• Design AWS APIs other Providence, RI teams will still thank you for next year
• Pull Financial Solutions's Webpack stack out of the RI region before the migration deadline
• Own the deeply-bought-in edge cases in Financial Solutions's AWS billing nobody else wants to touch

What You'll Bring

• Ability to thrive both independently and as part of a tight-knit team
• A learner's pace that keeps up with shifting requirements
• Equal parts Webpack depth and Cypress curiosity
• The kind of ownership that treats the company's money like your own

Out of a converted warehouse in Providence, Financial Solutions has quietly grown into a relentlessly-kind force shaping how technology gets done. We hire slow-to-anger people, get out of their way, and let the Interpersonal Skills results speak.

We provide a $79,000 - $118,000 salary, full benefits, and dedicated time each week to learn new Webpack and Cypress tools.

We stamped it current today; the freelance opening is genuinely accepting candidates.
