The Role

Lyft is wiring up its next product line, and the AWS Engineer we hire in Idaho Falls, ID gets to choose half the tools. Lyft frames it as a partnership — $45,000 - $72,000 for your 1 years, ownership of technology work, and growth shared both ways.

Key Responsibilities

  • Cut Adaptability cold-start times so Lyft functions wake before ID users notice
  • Lead Splunk design reviews that catch the costly mistakes before Idaho Falls, ID builds them
  • Translate fuzzy product wishes from Lyft stakeholders into shippable Splunk services
  • Translate empowering business requirements into technical specifications and tasks
  • Pair-program tricky Istio edge cases with engineers across Idaho Falls, ID
  • Negotiate Istio tradeoffs with product when Lyft timelines and reality collide
  • Write the Splunk integration tests that catch regressions before Idaho Falls, ID ships them
  • Ship incremental improvements to Lyft's Idaho Falls platform on a regular cadence

What You'll Bring

  • Track record that proves you can human-first ship under deadline pressure
  • An Idaho Falls network, or the hustle to build one from scratch
  • A collaborative mindset and genuine enthusiasm for teamwork
  • A point of view, held loosely and defended well
  • Written communication clear enough to survive a forwarded email chain
  • 1+ years putting Splunk to work in a technology setting
  • A bias toward asking the dumb question before the expensive mistake

For over 1 years, Lyft has built scrappy-but-steady solutions that help teams in Idaho Falls, ID get more done. Ownership at Lyft means you fix the broken thing even when nobody assigned it to you.

Start strong at $45,000 - $72,000, grow with a mentor, settle into benefits, and enjoy flexibility that finally fits Idaho Falls.
