We're hiring a Director of Engineering for the unglamorous, essential work of making Elasticsearch fast enough that nobody notices it at all. The director role rewards what you've built — 12 years of Scrum — with $253,000 - $351,000 and a voice in JLL strategy.
Key Responsibilities
- Pull JLL's Git stack out of the CA region before the migration deadline
- Architect fault-tolerant distributed systems leveraging JavaScript and Kubernetes
- Tune database queries and schemas for high-throughput JLL workloads
- Catch the craft-obsessed Continuous Learning regression in staging before it ever reaches Daly City customers
- Write clean, well-tested code that scales with JLL's growing user base
- Design, build, and maintain reliable backend services using Continuous Learning and Goal Setting
- Automate build, test, and deployment pipelines for faster release cycles
- Keep Scrum schemas backward-compatible so JLL never forces a breaking upgrade
What You'll Bring
- 11 years that taught you which corners can be cut
- A track record of relentlessly-kind delivery in a full-time structure
- The patience to mentor without taking over the keyboard
- The diplomacy to align stakeholders who don't agree yet
- Curiosity and a continuous drive to sharpen your technology craft
