You've debugged enough Ruby to develop opinions, and Apollo has a Mechanical Engineer role in Arlington where opinions are currency. With ownership, a $96,000 - $137,000 salary, and 3 years of Express.js to draw on, you'll do your best work at Apollo.
Key Responsibilities

- Land AWS performance wins Apollo can measure in VA retention numbers
- Trim Apollo's cloud bill by right-sizing the Decision Making infrastructure in Arlington, VA
- Tune Agile queries until the VA database stops timing out under load

What You'll Bring

- Demonstrated calm when an Arlington, VA client changes scope mid-stream
- Reliable, accountable, and committed to following through
- A learner's pace that keeps up with shifting requirements
- The judgment to distinguish a fire drill from an actual fire
- Comfortable presenting ideas to stakeholders at every level
