McKinsey hiring remote engineers
McKinsey is recruiting fully remote software engineers through its Chicago office, offering about $186k and accepting applicants with just two years' experience—applications by email only, according to a recent post reported. That pay-and-remote combo signals Big‑3 firms competing for tech talent beyond traditional consulting profiles—relevant for candidates blending engineering and advisory ambitions.
McKinsey filed the trademark "ECLIPTOS" with the EUIPO on February 6, 2026, signaling a branded platform build beyond ad-hoc internal tooling. (trademarkelite.com) Public job listings for the platform describe a product team scaling to roughly 130 technologists, specifying an explicit headcount target for the build-out. (canarywharfian.co.uk) A recent Full‑Stack Engineer — Platform (Defense) posting appeared on aggregator pages dated March 3, 2026, listing the role as focused on Defense-customized platform work. (diversityjobs.com) The same listings require Python, React, Next.js and LLM experience for data retrieval and API work. (canarywharfian.co.uk) Principal/lead platform roles shown on aggregator copies carry posted compensation bands around $214k–$218k for U.S. offices including Chicago and Boston. (canarywharfian.co.uk) Independent salary aggregates report McKinsey Chicago tech pay clustering near a $208k average across submitted profiles. (6figr.com) Several aggregator pages for these openings include "Apply Now" flows and list multiple U.S. hubs — Boston, Chicago, New York, San Francisco/Silicon Valley and Washington, D.C. — indicating distributed hiring rather than a single-office intake. (canarywharfian.co.uk) Rivals are expanding comparable tech rosters: BCG’s careers site shows hundreds of Technology & Engineering listings (319 results in one view), and Bain maintains dedicated Technology & Engineering teams and remote postings. (careers.bcg.com) Trademark filings for ECLIPTOS list Software‑as‑a‑Service and Platform‑as‑a‑Service offerings plus AI-enabled business consultancy features, which frames the hires as product‑engineering roles intended to embed consulting workflows into a software platform.
