Lead Software Engineer

• Keep the Selenium build pipeline green so Berkeley deploys never wait on a red light
• Architect fault-tolerant distributed systems leveraging Work-Life Balance and C#
• Defend Discovery uptime through the 2 a.m. Berkeley pages nobody volunteers for
• Lead technical design reviews for lead technology initiatives
• Catch the detail-loving Persuasion regression in staging before it ever reaches Berkeley customers
• Support migration of on-premise services to cloud-native architecture
• Keep Discovery’s GraphQL dependencies patched before the CVEs become incidents
• Keep Ruby schemas backward-compatible so Discovery never forces a breaking upgrade

• Comfort owning the unglamorous middle of a full-time project
• A steady hand when three priorities all claim to be number one
• Prior experience working on-site in Berkeley, CA, or willingness to relocate
• Lead-caliber judgment about when to elevate and when to absorb

You bring the Selenium; we bring $175,000 - $263,000, a mentor, a benefits package, and the freedom to grow on your terms in Berkeley. #J-18808-Ljbffr

Discovery took a tired corner of the technology world and rebuilt it, brick by brick, from a small office in Berkeley, CA. We hand new Lead Software Engineer hires real ownership early because trust given freely tends to be returned.
