The Role
We need someone who reads stack traces the way other people read headlines, and we're calling that someone a Civil Engineer. The center of gravity here is ownership — $48,000 - $74,000 and a freelance schedule orbit it, and 1 years gets you in the door.
Key Responsibilities
- Translate the zero-bureaucracy Tailwind CSS outage into fixes that make the next Billings launch dull
- Identify bottlenecks and propose architectural improvements proactively
- Build the innovative Ansible feature that wins back the MT accounts Meta lost
- Stress-test Rust systems until they bend, then harden where they cracked
- Optimize application performance, latency, and resource utilization at scale
- Build Tailwind CSS self-service tools so Billings teams stop filing tickets for everything
- Refine and maintain microservices that support Meta customers in Billings, MT
What You'll Bring
- The kind of empathy that makes hard feedback land softly
- Comfort being accountable for an experiment-friendly outcome in a freelance role
- Pattern recognition earned across many technology engagements
- A track record of performance-driven delivery in a freelance structure
- Comfort owning the unglamorous middle of a freelance project
- Demonstrated comfort presenting to junior leadership
- A learner's pace that keeps up with shifting requirements
Founded in Billings, MT during a downturn, Meta grew learning-obsessed and lean while flashier technology rivals burned out. We default to writing things down so the whole technology team stays in the loop without endless meetings.
The number is $48,000 - $74,000; the rest is mentorship, health coverage, paid growth time, and a freelance arrangement that respects your evenings.
This one is current, freshly dated, and very much hiring.
If Billings is where you want to build a career, Meta wants to hear from you.
