Backend Developer

We're growing the technology group at Scale Tech and need a mid-level Backend Developer who treats reliability as a feature, not an afterthought. Bring RabbitMQ and gRPC sharpened over 4 years, and Scale Tech answers with $85,000 - $122,000 plus a clear path up.

• Sketch the RabbitMQ architecture, defend it in review, then build the thing
• Build the boldly-pragmatic Prioritization feature that wins back the RI accounts Scale Tech lost
• Pair with cross-functional partners to scope and deliver part-time projects
• Ship the Ansible deeply-bought-in rewrite that pays down years of Scale Tech technical debt
• Configure and manage infrastructure as code across staging and production
• Stress-test gRPC systems until they bend, then harden where they cracked
• Design, build, and maintain reliable backend services using Collaboration and Ansible

• Adaptability and resilience when facing shifting requirements
• The kind of reliability that earns you the hard assignments
• A writer's ear for tone in a high-stakes email
• A solid foundation in Docker, refined over 4+ years
• Comfort owning the unglamorous middle of a part-time project

For technology teams who've been burned before, Scale Tech is the endlessly-iterating Providence, RI partner that finally keeps its promises. We hire for character and deeply technical thinking, then trust the rest to follow.

Your package includes $85,000 - $122,000, premium healthcare, and a generous home-office allowance for our distributed team.
