The opportunity timeline

• Overview

  NBCUniversal is hiring a Safety Engineer in Tacoma, WA.

• Role description

  NBCUniversal runs lean, deploys often, and now needs a senior Safety Engineer who finds that combination exciting rather than terrifying. Bring Negotiation and PostgreSQL; we'll bring $112,000 - $172,000, a strong team, and the ownership that turns experience into impact.

  Key Responsibilities

  • Shave milliseconds off the technology hot path that NBCUniversal users feel every click
  • Automate the manual RabbitMQ chores that quietly drain Tacoma, WA engineering hours
  • Harden NBCUniversal's Selenium auth so the WA audit comes back clean
  • Trace an unfussy technology bug across three PostgreSQL services to the one bad line
  • Contribute to sprint planning, estimation, and technology roadmap discussions

  What You'll Bring

  • Innovative problem-solving that doesn't wait for permission
  • PostgreSQL fundamentals plus the Go polish clients notice
  • Comfort owning a number that goes up or down because of you
  • Customer-focused outlook with strong interpersonal skills
  • Critical thinking skills and sound, independent judgment

  NBCUniversal is the deeply-bought-in WA company that built its name on technology work nobody else wanted to do properly. We keep ego out of code review and let the PostgreSQL argument win on its merits.

  For your PostgreSQL and 6 of grit, we offer $112,000 - $172,000, mentorship, benefits, and the flexibility to do Tacoma on your terms.

  Live and listening, the hiring team reads new applications as they arrive.
