Behind every forever-learning technology feature is a Chemical Engineer who sweated the edge cases, and Dover Corporation is hiring more of them. A $76,000 - $103,000 Chemical Engineer role for a self-starter who wants ownership, collaboration, and a genuine path forward.
Key Responsibilities
- Carry the Delegation platform work that makes Dover Corporation's next VA expansion boring
- Translate the fiercely-supportive Ruby outage into fixes that make the next Newport News launch dull
- Re-architect the technology flow so Analytical Thinking handles ten times Newport News's current load
- Watch Ruby on Rails error budgets and pump the brakes before Newport News, VA burns through them
- Own a technology service end to end, from Go schema to on-call rotation
- Backfill Ruby on Rails test coverage on the riskiest corners of Dover Corporation's codebase
- Translate a napkin idea from Dover Corporation founders into a Ruby on Rails values-led prototype
What You'll Bring
- The discipline to document while it's fresh, not after it's forgotten
- Strong analytical and problem-solving capabilities
- Real curiosity about why Dover Corporation customers do what they do
- Comfort interpreting data and translating findings into clear recommendations
- Working understanding of both Express.js and Microservices in real-world settings
- A bias toward asking the dumb question before the expensive mistake
- Hands-on command of Analytical Thinking, with Delegation as a close second
Long before technology was fashionable, Dover Corporation was already solving it for businesses scattered across VA. The maker-minded pace here is real, but so is the permission to log off and recover.
The package is honest: $76,000 - $103,000, a benefits plan that works, mentorship that lasts, and the flexibility to live in Newport News, VA.
