Performance Engineer

We're growing the technology group at Best Buy and need a mid-level Performance Engineer who treats reliability as a feature, not an afterthought. This is $74,000 - $112,000 for 4 years of People Management, an internship schedule, and a mid-level stake in where Best Buy heads next. Key Responsibilities Pair gRPC and Java in a pipeline Best Buy can extend without your help later Break large technology initiatives into Java increments Mankato can actually deliver Design gRPC APIs other Mankato, MN teams will still thank you for next year Ship the data-driven Agile features that move Best Buy's technology roadmap forward Identify bottlenecks and propose architectural improvements proactively Spike an Agile proof of concept fast when Best Buy needs a yes-or-no answer Catch the Java race conditions that only surface under Mankato peak traffic Wrangle Swift config across environments so Mankato staging mirrors production What You'll Bring Ability to learn new technology systems quickly and apply them effectively Familiarity with Best Buy-scale workflows, or the appetite to reach them Prior experience working on-site in Mankato, MN, or willingness to relocate The grit to debug at 4pm on a Friday without complaint The kind of empathy that makes hard feedback land softly Every product at Best Buy reflects the mission-soaked standards our Mankato, MN team holds itself to. We build psychological safety the boring way: by actually following through on what we say. You get $74,000 - $112,000, a robust benefits suite, and hands-on mentorship aimed at making you a stronger technology professional. Still warm and still open, this internship listing just got updated. Your background in Python could be exactly the missing piece here in Mankato, so reach out. #J-18808-Ljbffr
