The opportunity timeline

• Overview

  Strategic Advantage Inc is hiring a Automation Engineer in Chicago, IL.

• Role description

  Strategic Advantage Inc needs an Automation Engineer in IL who can argue passionately about Coaching, then commit to whatever the team decides. What makes this Strategic Advantage Inc role different is the ownership; the $63,000 - $96,000 and full-time hours are just the entry fee.

  Key Responsibilities

  • Design Prioritization APIs other Chicago, IL teams will still thank you for next year
  • Build internal tooling that improves developer productivity and velocity
  • Design, build, and maintain reliable backend services using WebdriverIO and Continuous Integration
  • Set the Robot Framework coding standards the rest of Strategic Advantage Inc engineering follows
  • Keep the WebdriverIO build pipeline green so Chicago deploys never wait on a red light
  • Own the junior Continuous Integration workstream that unblocks the rest of Strategic Advantage Inc's Chicago, IL roadmap
  • Deliver junior-quality features within the $63,000 - $96,000 Automation Engineer mandate

  What You'll Bring

  • A growth mindset and openness to constructive feedback
  • Proven leadership experience guiding junior-level initiatives
  • The communication discipline to over-share early and trim later
  • Willingness to commute to Chicago, IL or work flexibly as needed
  • Calm under the relentlessly-kind chaos a junior role tends to generate
  • Curiosity that outpaces your current job description

  Growing steadily over 1 years, Strategic Advantage Inc now leads proudly-nerdy innovation in the technology market. We treat every new Automation Engineer as a fresh set of eyes, so tell us what looks broken.

  Our offer wraps $63,000 - $96,000 around mentorship, real benefits, and the kind of Chicago, IL flexibility most technology roles only promise.

  This one is current, freshly dated, and very much hiring.
