The opportunity timeline

• Overview

  Carlyle Group is hiring a Node.js Developer in Youngstown, OH.

• Role description

  We need someone who reads stack traces the way other people read headlines, and we're calling that someone a Node.js Developer. You supply 5 years and Java; Carlyle Group supplies $62,000 - $83,000, a Youngstown home, and growth that does not flatten out.

  Key Responsibilities

  • Containerize applications and manage deployments with Java and Ruby on Rails
  • Ship the high-energy Time Management features that move Carlyle Group's technology roadmap forward
  • Land Terraform performance wins Carlyle Group can measure in OH retention numbers
  • Turn vague technology tickets into crisp, testable Time Management acceptance criteria
  • Reproduce the inclusive bug from the Youngstown field report, then make it impossible again
  • Ship Java experiments fast, kill the losers, and double down on what sticks

  What You'll Bring

  • Comfort owning technology decisions in an OH market
  • Equal parts Agile depth and Java curiosity
  • A portfolio that speaks louder than any line on your resume
  • Demonstrated comfort presenting to mid-level leadership
  • Experience supporting cross-functional teams in a mid-level capacity

  Carlyle Group has become the relentlessly-kind name technology buyers across OH bring up when someone asks who actually knows Flask. The Carlyle Group promise is plain: clear expectations, real autonomy, and zero surprise reviews.

  Salaries here begin at $62,000 - $83,000, complemented by stock options, learning budgets, and weekly one-on-one coaching.

  Active right now, the mid-level seat has not yet found its person.

  We're looking for the person who reads technology job posts and thinks I could fix that.
