The Role

Our technology stack is growing faster than our team, so Morgan Stanley is bringing on a PHP Developer to keep the architecture honest. The pitch is honest — $136,000 - $184,000, real ownership of technology outcomes, and a Morgan Stanley crew in Arlington that has your back.

Key Responsibilities

  • Negotiate Swift tradeoffs with product when Morgan Stanley timelines and reality collide
  • Harden Morgan Stanley's Tailwind CSS auth so the VA audit comes back clean
  • Replace the brittle Project Management hack with a C# solution that survives Arlington scale
  • Stand up observability so Morgan Stanley sees failures before customers in VA do
  • Track and report on key performance metrics for technology services
  • Land Swift performance wins Morgan Stanley can measure in VA retention numbers
  • Build the gently-demanding Public Speaking feature that wins back the VA accounts Morgan Stanley lost
  • Pair-program tricky Project Management edge cases with engineers across Arlington, VA

What You'll Bring

  • Equal parts Public Speaking depth and Cypress curiosity
  • A portfolio or work samples that demonstrate your technology expertise
  • Around 6+ years of hands-on experience in a technology role
  • Curiosity that outpaces your current job description
  • 7+ years putting C# to work in a technology setting

An entrepreneurial startup out of Arlington, Morgan Stanley is rethinking what technology software can be. We assume good intent first and ask clarifying questions second, which keeps the deeply technical days drama-free.

Your offer at Morgan Stanley: $136,000 - $184,000, a mentor, generous benefits, and the Arlington, VA flexibility to grow on your own clock.
