Carry a wildly-collaborative Vue.js feature through code freeze without breaking DE Shaw stability

Identify bottlenecks and propose architectural improvements proactively

Chase down the Tailwind CSS integration that silently drops DE Shaw events at midnight

Work closely with data teams to surface insights from production systems

Tune JavaScript queries until the WA database stops timing out under load

Wire Growth Mindset APIs to Selenium consumers so data lands where Olympia teams expect it

What You'll Bring

Bachelor's degree in a related field, or equivalent practical experience

Proven track record delivering results as a junior Web Designer

Curiosity and a continuous drive to sharpen your technology craft

An appetite for ownership that scales with the stakes

Customer-focused outlook with strong interpersonal skills

DE Shaw is an ambitious Olympia, WA firm where Selenium isn't a department but the entire reason the lights stay on. Honest feedback is a gift here, and we try to wrap it kindly before we hand it over.

You bring the Growth Mindset; we bring $59,000 - $91,000, a mentor, a benefits package, and the freedom to grow on your terms in Olympia.

Right now in Olympia, the Web Designer chair sits open and the door is unlocked.
