Job description

We're growing the technology group at Financial Advisors Plus and need a VP of Engineering who treats reliability as a feature, not an afterthought. A hybrid VP of Engineering post in St. Joseph that values TypeScript over 14 years, pays $199,000 - $315,000, and never boxes you in.

Key Responsibilities

• Untangle the React dependency knots that have slowed St. Joseph releases for months
• Re-architect the technology flow so Initiative handles ten times St. Joseph's current load
• Stress-test Goal Setting systems until they bend, then harden where they cracked
• Stand up observability so Financial Advisors Plus sees failures before customers in MO do
• Lead Kotlin design reviews that catch the costly mistakes before St. Joseph, MO builds them
• Sketch Goal Setting sequence diagrams that make the technology flow obvious to everyone

What You'll Bring

• Vp mastery of Goal Setting, validated by people who'd hire you again
• Comfort owning the unglamorous middle of a hybrid project
• Clear thinking under the kind of pressure St. Joseph, MO deadlines bring
• Fluency across Initiative and JavaScript, with strong opinions on both
• A mission-soaked bias toward action, balanced by knowing when to wait
• Track record that proves you can ownership-driven ship under deadline pressure
• Willingness to commute to St. Joseph, MO or work flexibly as needed

With roots in St. Joseph, MO and a quick-to-ship outlook, Financial Advisors Plus delivers software that scales with our customers. We believe great React work comes from people who feel safe to experiment and occasionally fail.

The package speaks for itself: $199,000 - $315,000, coaching, coverage, and the flexible hybrid hours that client-focused technology pros expect.

Live this hour, the technology role remains open and unclaimed.

If steady hybrid work with real stakes appeals to you, the VP of Engineering chair is waiting.
