Job description

We ship fast and break very little, and we want a Senior Software Engineer who shares that obsession with RabbitMQ. What makes this ByteWorks role different is the ownership; the $104,000 - $151,000 and temporary hours are just the entry fee.

Key Responsibilities

• Wrangle PHP config across environments so Frederick staging mirrors production
• Build PostgreSQL self-service tools so Frederick teams stop filing tickets for everything
• Mentor newer senior hires on how ByteWorks actually wires Collaboration together
• Pull Jenkins telemetry into dashboards ByteWorks leaders actually open
• Land JavaScript performance wins ByteWorks can measure in MD retention numbers
• Harden ByteWorks's Time Management auth so the MD audit comes back clean
• Carry features from whiteboard sketch to Frederick, MD production without dropping the baton
• Re-architect the technology flow so Time Management handles ten times Frederick's current load

What You'll Bring

• Pattern recognition earned across many technology engagements
• The instinct to ask "what would change your mind?" before debating
• A communication style that translates jargon back into plain English
• A team player who lifts up colleagues and shares credit
• Comfort with a ByteWorks pace that rarely sits still
• Written communication clear enough to survive a forwarded email chain
• A Frederick grounding, or the adaptability to plant roots quickly

ByteWorks doesn't sell technology so much as guarantee it, a people-centered distinction the Frederick, MD team takes personally. Trust, transparency, and steady momentum are the three things we protect above all else.

From the $104,000 - $151,000 starting line, expect coaching that grows your PostgreSQL and benefits that quietly cover the rest of life.

As recently as today, ByteWorks reopened the doors on this one.
