  • You’re pragmatic and iterative in building software. You can simplify and get things done quickly with a demonstrated track record of building and delivering high quality software.

  • You’re a team player. You recognize the accomplishments of the team before the individual and actively foster an innovative and inclusive work environment

To qualify for the role, you must have

  • Bachelor’s Degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, or a related field

  • 3+ years of professional engineering experience

  • Hands-on experience with modern full-stack JavaScript development including Node.js and frameworks such as React and Express

  • Experience building cloud native/microservices architecture applications and platforms

  • Experience with Agile software development (like Scrum or Kanban)

  • Knowledge of professional software engineering practices and the full software development life cycle, including coding standards, code reviews, source control management, build processes, testing, and operations

  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills

  • Willingness and ability to travel to meet client needs

Ideally, you’ll also have

  • Passion for blockchain technology and experience with Ethereum, Quorum, and/or Solidity

  • Experience with containerization technologies such as Docker and Kubernetes

  • Previous experience deploying and configuring environments using infrastructure-as-code provisioning tools like Terraform and Ansible

  • Experience with traditional enterprise technologies including SaaS and ERP systems (like SAP)

What we look for

We strongly value diversity and inclusion. Your energy for new challenges and your interest in growth is more important than any specific skills or other attributes. If you read through the qualifications and felt discouraged from applying because you don't check all the boxes, even though you think this might be a job you would love, please apply anyway. None of us had all these skills when we started here, and we value your ability to learn, grow, and work with others more than any pre-conceived notion of the kind of person who should fill these roles.

What we offer
We offer a comprehensive compensation and benefits package where you’ll be rewarded based on your performance and recognized for the value you bring to the business. The base salary range for this job in all geographic locations in the US is $101,500 to $186,000. The salary range for New York City Metro Area, Washington State and California (excluding Sacramento) is $121,700 to $211,300. Individual salaries within those ranges are determined through a wide variety of factors including but not limited to education, experience, knowledge, skills and geography. In addition, our Total Rewards package includes medical and dental coverage, pension and 401(k) plans, and a wide range of paid time off options. Join us in our team-led and leader-enabled hybrid model. Our expectation is for most people in external, client serving roles to work together in person 40-60% of the time over the course of an engagement, project or year. Under our flexible vacation policy, you’ll decide how much vacation time you need based on your own personal circumstances. You’ll also be granted time off for designated EY Paid Holidays, Winter/Summer breaks, Personal/Family Care, and other leaves of absence when needed to support your physical, financial, and emotional well-being.
  • Continuous learning: You’ll develop the mindset and skills to navigate whatever comes next.
  • Success as defined by you: We’ll provide the tools and flexibility, so you can make a meaningful impact, your way.
