Job description

We're after a Software Engineer whose idea of a good day is a proudly-nerdy pull request that closed three tickets and opened zero. With $103,000 - $154,000 on the table, this mid-level role rewards 3 years of Ruby with autonomy and team-driven growth.

Key Responsibilities

• Own data integrity across Retail Excellence Corp's Facilitation stores so Santa Rosa numbers never lie
• Turn Retail Excellence Corp's Ruby on-call noise into alerts that actually mean something
• Containerize applications and manage deployments with .NET Core and Facilitation
• Mentor junior engineers and contribute to a strong code-review culture
• Write the Rust integration tests that catch regressions before Santa Rosa, CA ships them
• Resurrect flaky REST API tests until the Santa Rosa, CA suite is trustworthy again
• Walk technology stakeholders through Ruby tradeoffs in language Retail Excellence Corp execs grasp
• Pair with technology analysts so Retail Excellence Corp's Resilience models match real behavior

What You'll Bring

• Comfort steering technology conversations toward a decision
• Comfort being accountable for a sharp-but-gentle outcome in a part-time role
• Mid-level mastery of .NET Core, validated by people who'd hire you again
• The discipline to document while it's fresh, not after it's forgotten
• Comfort with the part-time cadence of a Santa Rosa-based operation

Retail Excellence Corp exists for one stubborn reason: the technology tools everyone settled for were never good enough, so we rebuilt them from Santa Rosa, CA. The pace is energetic but humane, and we treat protecting your time off as part of the work.

We hand you $103,000 - $154,000, a growth plan, a mentor, and benefits, then let you flex your week to fit Santa Rosa the way you like.

Our hiring manager is personally reviewing every Software Engineer application that comes in.

We're looking for the person who reads technology job posts and thinks I could fix that.
