Job description

Strategic Advantage is on a mission to scale, and a sharp Software Engineer with 5 of MySQL experience is exactly who we need. The deal favors the seasoned — 3 years earns $69,000 - $95,000, a hybrid arrangement, and a technology charter you'll actually own.

Key Responsibilities

• Wire Express.js APIs to Networking consumers so data lands where Lubbock teams expect it
• Own the mid-level Microservices workstream that unblocks the rest of Strategic Advantage's Lubbock, TX roadmap
• Develop and maintain RESTful APIs powering core Strategic Advantage products
• Decode the undocumented Rust service nobody at Strategic Advantage remembers writing
• Deliver mid-level-quality features within the $69,000 - $95,000 Software Engineer mandate
• Own the low-drama edge cases in Strategic Advantage's Microservices billing nobody else wants to touch
• Collaborate with product and design teams to ship features end to end

What You'll Bring

• 3+ years building trust the slow, unglamorous way
• A track record of autonomy-driven delivery in a hybrid structure
• Self-direction that survives a quiet Slack channel
• A growth mindset that treats feedback as fuel, not threat

Strategic Advantage is the metrics-driven Lubbock, TX company that technology insiders recommend but rarely the one that advertises. Around Strategic Advantage, the loudest voice never automatically wins the technology argument.

Beyond the $69,000 - $95,000 headline, we hand you a mentor, room to grow into mid-level work, and the freedom to shape your own week.

As of today's date, this Software Engineer req has not been filled.
