Job Title: Technology Support Specialist
Location: Chicago, IL
Pay: Not sure, but it's non-profit so probably less than you're expecting.
Remote: 2-3 days a week work from home. Otherwise downtown Chicago. Occasional weekend or after-hours support.

Tier 1-2 tech support in a primarily Windows/Microsoft environment, but with some Macs. Google for Email.
Long standing and stable non-profit organization in the performing arts world.
2-3 days work from home is a organization standard, in perpetuity.
Great team and work environment in my opinion, and some great perks if you have an interest in performing arts/music/theater.
Organization and staff are pretty progressive.
Posted position is looking for 4 years IT experience, but I think we could work with someone closer to entry level but tech savy who can be trained up and I have some influence on the hiring process.

PM me for details.

It's early yet as the job description hasn't even come together, but my team (internal IT service desk) will soon be looking for a new manager. I'm stepping down from the role because it's been 2.5 years of slowly driving me crazy, but if you love responsibility and being the "face" of IT -- and have some interest in really shaping the future of the service desk -- then this might be your role.

Team is small at just the 4 of us. I am likely to stick around as your team lead, so you will probably have a fairly easy time with this crew. Two of us are goons.

The CIO you'd report to is legitimately a great guy.

It'll be fully remote and pay >$80k...please PM if you'd like to know more.

Regardless, I'll share the posting here for anybody who might be interested once it goes live.

Okay, so this has been posted: https://recruiting.ultipro.com/NET1...06-d72375d251c5

Still looking for Systems Dev Engineers at Amazon Robotics, full remote or in Boston. Also have some network dev engineer opportunities that could be partially remote but are unavoidably centric to two locations in suburban MA. We build physical things.

We own infrastructure for the largest engineering org in the company plus the largest manufacturing group. That includes a bunch of networks, as well as COTS products for CAD, PLM, ERP, etc. It's a pretty unique space within Amzn as it's more enterprise-IT than most.

Some of the upcoming work facing the team:
-Building/running monolithic enterprise apps like SAP or Solidworks in a zero-trust borderless network.
-Building authZ products in AWS to support the above. Lots of these systems expect AD binds.
-Building products to make floating licenses work in unsecured networks, with the challenges inherent in not controlling the client.
-Operating the networks from both large IT depts within Amzn, and developing our own for the mfg operation.

Looking for sysadmins with automation, coding, AWS experience up to SDEs who want to work on infrastructure products. Really no devops work. Other teams own CICD and it's mature and it works.

Comp is top of market. If the work sounds interesting and you want to know more please PM. We have 3 openings. Check some of my previous posts in the thread for more info, but I wanted to talk a little about the actual work.

Hey everyone, I'm looking for a role in software engineering/frontend development!

I have around 3 years of professional experience as a software engineer where I focused almost exclusively on frontend development. I have worked primarily in the fintech field, both in and out of crypto, though I am interested in all fields.

My skillset revolves around JavaScript, React, Redux and other technologies. I'm comfortable learning on the job and have done so with large frameworks (React-Native) and languages (TypeScript) in a professional environment.

I would like to work for a larger, established company, but it is not a requirement.

Remote is preferable, but a hybrid position within a reasonable distance could work as well. I am located in Northern New Jersey, approximately 30 minutes commute from NYC.

Full benefits are necessary, as is a competitive salary.

I have a personal website which has a copy of my resume attached, as well as a list of my accomplishments and links to projects. You can feel free to reach me via the Contact Me button on my site, by DMing me here, or by reaching out to my email address located on my resume.

If you're small enough that all those things are one job, it's either "CTO" if you have VC backing and are willing to part with equity or "Dude you hired straight out of college and is willing to work unreasonable hours for low pay" if not.

Edit: okay, real answer is either "architect" or "staff engineer" and a salary that starts with the number 2.

Haha, yeah, I don't think I could ask to pin a C to my job title just yet. I was thinking something more mid-level that comes with good salary expectations but isn't managerial. Do CTOs really do much programming?

CTOs at real companies don't do any programming. CTOs at companies run out of their parents' garage do ALL the programming because the only other employee is the CEO.

What I'm trying to say is based on your description, you're either the co-founder of a "company" that makes no money and thinks their app idea is going to be worth billions, or you're the "IT guy" for a plumbing company in Iowa.

Staff Engineer/Architect implies depth, not breadth. If I saw those titles I'd expect a certain amount of deep understanding of your top skills.

I'd just say "Software Engineer" but if you wanted to goose it a little "Software and DevOps Engineer". DevOps isn't really IT-y these days, it's usually on the engineering side of the house.

Depends on the adjective before it. An enterprise architect is probably going to be a mile wide. On the other hand, I would expect a [vendor]-[product] architect to trip over their own beard on the way to the bathroom.

Staff engineer is meaningless beyond the expectation that you are managing/mentoring other, more junior engineers in some capacity.

Yeah, that's not bad. Depends on what you want your next job to be though too. If you really want to dive into development/engineering, as a hiring manager I might rather see Software Engineer than Enterprise Architect. If you want to keep doing a junk drawer of stuff (and I sorta made a career out of that, so no judgement) enterprise architect is pretty good.

I like making things and hate meetings, I want programming to be my career. But I also like being the "knowledge guy" people go to for solutions because I enjoy teaching. I didn't really choose to become a jack-of-all-trades, but my current position has no one else and I'm able to pick things up quickly. I just want to figure out what to call that that would best benefit my career trajectory; like Lockback said, what would look good on my resume if I had the opportunity to more or less choose my own title, and what would allow me to demand the highest salary.

At most larger companies, enterprise architects translate business requirements into technical designs (which sounds like what is happening) but then aren't the ones actually doing the implementation. And then they get bored because they never get to touch stuff and they insist on touching my stuff and gently caress it all up.

They also have to go to a lot of meetings, and actually participate in them. If you don't want meetings, stay a lower level engineer. But the higher up you go on the career ladder, the more your problems are people problems and less computer problems. And those mostly get solved in meetings.
