The opportunity timeline

• Overview

  DE Shaw is hiring a React Developer in Raleigh, NC.

• Role description

  We believe great engineers ship great software, so we are hiring a React Developer who lives and breathes Unit Testing. Strip away the buzzwords and here's the deal — $102,000 - $141,000, temporary hours, and a technology team at DE Shaw that actually hands you the keys.

  Key Responsibilities

  • Carry the Tailwind CSS platform work that makes DE Shaw's next NC expansion boring
  • Own the senior Presentation Skills workstream that unblocks the rest of DE Shaw's Raleigh, NC roadmap
  • Set the Rust coding standards the rest of DE Shaw engineering follows
  • Profile Innovation memory use and chase down the leaks crashing Raleigh nodes
  • Cut Elasticsearch cold-start times so DE Shaw functions wake before NC users notice
  • Configure and manage infrastructure as code across staging and production

  What You'll Bring

  • The communication discipline to over-share early and trim later
  • Senior fluency in Unit Testing, with Scrum on your roadmap
  • A communicator who can disagree without making it personal
  • Real curiosity about why DE Shaw customers do what they do
  • Clear thinking under the kind of pressure Raleigh, NC deadlines bring
  • The reliability that lets a manager stop checking in

  At DE Shaw, a mission-soaked Raleigh-based studio, the whole mission boils down to making Presentation Skills feel effortless for everyone downstream. At DE Shaw, asking for a day off doesn't require a doctor's note or a guilt trip.

  Compensation lands at $102,000 - $141,000, mentorship is built in, and the path from here to senior technology work is mapped, not vague.

  The DE Shaw team is expanding in Raleigh, NC this quarter, and this seat is part of that growth.
