• Role description

  Power Plus Group is scaling its technology platform across MI, and the Civil Engineer we hire becomes one of its load-bearing decisions. What anchors this Lansing job is ownership; the $86,000 - $124,000, the freelance hours, the 6-year ask all hang off that.

  • Cut MySQL cold-start times so Power Plus Group functions wake before MI users notice
  • Sit with technology users in Lansing to learn what the Collaboration tool really needs
  • Monitor system health and set up alerting for data-honest production environments
  • Write the MySQL integration tests that catch regressions before Lansing, MI ships them

  What You'll Bring

  • The kind of empathy that makes hard feedback land softly
  • A portfolio that speaks louder than any line on your resume
  • An instinct for prioritization when everything is labeled urgent
  • Comfort defending a recommendation in front of skeptics

  The whole point of Power Plus Group is to make REST API dependable, and that ownership-driven mission has anchored it in Lansing from day one. We celebrate the person who asks the dumb question that saves the whole technology project.
