Software Engineer II

Description:

Lead Software Engineer Specialist - DIRECT HIRE (Grant Funded)


Salary: 160k - Non-Negotiable


This is a repost of JP 13545. While there was an offer made and accepted this team has the exact same need however has a strict budget of 160k and this is not negotiable. They recognize this is not competitive with the market however they operate on a strict budget since their projects are research based but feel confident they will eventually find the right fit at this salary. Please make note that the interview process for this need is quite lengthy and can result in 2-3 interviews that might average 3-4 hours an interview. If your candidate is still on the market and meets the minimum requirements for this role please feel free to submit. During their project kickoff, they were able to communicate with their sponsor about the Unreal challenges, and it's now not as critical. It would be nice if candidates have Unreal experience, but it isn't mission critical anymore. However, they do need to be experts in Unity. WHEN SUBMITTING THE CANDIDATE PLEASE TAKE THE SALARY AND DIVIDE BY 2080 AND THEN APPLY THAT ST RATE X 40% Mark-Up and you can list the salary in the comments as well.
