The opportunity timeline

• Overview

  Energy Transfer is hiring a Principal Software Engineer in Hartford, CT.

• Role description

  This is a Principal Software Engineer position for the person who automated their own job once and immediately wanted to do it again. A remote Principal Software Engineer post in Hartford that values Docker over 8 years, pays $165,000 - $233,000, and never boxes you in.

  Key Responsibilities

  • Monitor system health and set up alerting for metrics-driven production environments
  • Pair with cross-functional partners to scope and deliver remote projects
  • Cut Prioritization cold-start times so Energy Transfer functions wake before CT users notice
  • Turn vague technology tickets into crisp, testable TypeScript acceptance criteria
  • Reverse-engineer the forward-thinking Jenkins format Energy Transfer inherited and never documented
  • Negotiate PostgreSQL tradeoffs with product when Energy Transfer timelines and reality collide
  • Read the REST API stack traces others skim past, and trace bugs to their root
  • Build the quietly-relentless TypeScript feature that wins back the CT accounts Energy Transfer lost

  What You'll Bring

  • A CT sensibility, or genuine curiosity about this market
  • Proven Flask results, ideally seasoned in Hartford, CT
  • The judgment to say no to good ideas at the wrong time
  • Curiosity that outpaces your current job description
  • Familiarity with Docker and related tools or frameworks
