  • Keep Netflix Studios's Conflict Resolution CI under ten minutes so Bakersfield, CA engineers stay in flow
  • Reach into legacy Jenkins modules and leave them cleaner than you found them
  • Catch the client-centric Prioritization regression in staging before it ever reaches Bakersfield customers
  • Implement secure authentication and authorization flows using Microsoft Azure

  What You'll Bring

  • Practical Coaching skills sharpened in a hybrid setting
  • Sound instincts for reading a room you've never been in before
  • Roughly 6+ years operating in a similar Civil Engineer position
  • Demonstrated capacity to mentor or support senior teammates
  • 5+ years of PHP reps, not just PHP exposure
