• Turn vague technology tickets into crisp, testable CI/CD acceptance criteria


• Build Tailwind CSS self-service tools so Portland teams stop filing tickets for everything


• Apply Express.js and Vue.js to solve nimble engineering challenges


• Map data flow across Merck's RabbitMQ services and spot the leaks


• Identify bottlenecks and propose architectural improvements proactively


• Hand off Self-Motivation runbooks so the next on-call at Merck sleeps better

What You'll Bring

• Equal parts Cypress depth and RabbitMQ curiosity


• Comfortable owning projects from concept through delivery


• Judgment seasoned by at least 1 years of real consequences


• Knowledge of ME-specific regulations relevant to technology work


• The judgment to say no to good ideas at the wrong time

Run from a single floor in Portland, ME, Merck is a deeply-bought-in reminder that technology breakthroughs still start small. We hand new Unreal Developer hires real ownership early because trust given freely tends to be returned.
