The opportunity timeline

• Overview

  Deere & Company is hiring a Penetration Tester in Bakersfield, CA.

• Role description

  Work alongside talented engineers in Bakersfield to ship deeply collaborative features that delight users at every scale. Read it as a $107,000 - $158,000 invitation to own technology work in Bakersfield, backed by a senior title and 6 years of trust.

  Key Responsibilities

  • Stand up observability so Deere & Company sees failures before customers in CA do
  • Own the autonomy-driven Relationship Building subsystem that the rest of Deere & Company quietly depends on
  • Decode the undocumented Kubernetes Security service nobody at Deere & Company remembers writing
  • Catch the Kubernetes Security race conditions that only surface under Bakersfield peak traffic
  • Keep Deere & Company's Penetration Testing CI under ten minutes so Bakersfield, CA engineers stay in flow
  • Pull Data Loss Prevention telemetry into dashboards Deere & Company leaders actually open
  • Build Strategic Planning self-service tools so Bakersfield teams stop filing tickets for everything

  What You'll Bring

  • Fluency in OAuth 2.0 earned the hard way, not just from a tutorial
  • Familiarity with Strategic Planning and related tools or frameworks
  • 6 years that taught you which corners can be cut
  • Comfort with a Deere & Company pace that rarely sits still

  Across CA, the slow-to-anger technology systems people trust most often turn out to be Deere & Company, built quietly in Bakersfield. Ownership runs deep here: you'll own outcomes, not just tasks, from your first week as a Penetration Tester.

  For this Penetration Tester role we offer $107,000 - $158,000, a mentor who has walked the path, and benefits designed for life outside Deere & Company.

  This minute, the Penetration Tester chair sits empty and the search is on.
