About Us


We are a forward-thinking and rapidly expanding engineering team dedicated to building innovative, scalable, and high-performance applications. Our team thrives on exploring new technologies and pushing the boundaries of software development.


Position Overview


We are seeking a passionate and experienced Senior Full-Stack Engineer Team Lead with expertise in Ruby on Rails. The ideal candidate will have a strong background in developing and scaling applications, a deep love for coding, and an eagerness to experiment with new technologies and tools. This developer has strong opinions loosely held and is not married to their ideas or beliefs about programming.


If you don’t currently use VIM, you wish you did every time you watch Aaron Patterson fly through a live coding exercise. You want to attend Rails World every year and are disappointed if you can’t make it, trying to catch up on YouTube. You are excited by open-source development and try to contribute where you can. You love design patterns, hate leaky concerns, and can pick up on code smells.


Key Responsibilities


  • Leadership: Lead and mentor a team of engineers, fostering a collaborative and high-performance environment.
  • Application Development: Design, develop, and maintain robust, scalable, and secure web applications using Ruby on Rails.
  • Feature Implementation: Collaborate with cross-functional teams to define, design, and implement new features.
  • Code Quality: Write clean, maintainable, and efficient code, ensuring high performance and responsiveness.
  • Development Lifecycle: Oversee all stages of the development lifecycle, from initial concept to final delivery.
  • Best Practices: Implement best practices for test-driven development, continuous integration, refactoring, and code standards.
  • Continuous Learning: Stay informed about new technologies and drive their continuous adoption and integration into our development processes.
  • Code Reviews: Conduct and participate in code reviews to maintain high code quality and provide constructive feedback.

Qualifications


  • Experience: 7+ years of experience in Ruby on Rails development, including leadership roles.
  • Technical Skills:
    • Proficiency in modern Ruby on Rails development.
    • Experience with PubSub, Postgres, RSpec, Redis, and Sidekiq.
    • Solid understanding of object-oriented programming and Ruby on Rails Asset Pipeline (WebPacker, TypeScript, HotwireJS, etc.).
    • Familiarity with concepts of MVC, Mocking, ORM, and RESTful design.
    • Ability to integrate multiple data sources and databases into one system.
    • Understanding of fundamental design principles behind scalable applications.
    • Experience building and integrating APIs.
    • Proficient in GIT code versioning tools.
    • Familiarity with development tools such as VSCode, VIM, and continuous integration tools like GitHub Actions.
    • Knowledge of AWS, Docker, and design patterns within software development.
    • Experience with front-end technologies such as JS, HTML, CSS, and frameworks like Hotwire.js.
    • Understanding of CSS frameworks like TailwindCSS or equivalent.

Desired Qualities

  • Passion for Development: Loves coding and enjoys experimenting with new technologies and tools.
  • Open-Mindedness: Strong opinions loosely held, adaptable, and open to new ideas.
  • Community Involvement: Regular attendee of Rails World or similar conferences, staying engaged with the Rails community.
  • Open-Source Advocate: Excited by open-source development and eagerly anticipates new Rails releases.
  • Code Quality: Strong understanding and appreciation for design patterns, and keen on identifying and fixing leaky concerns and code smells.

Nice to Have

  • Industry Experience: Experience in gaming or highly regulated industries.
  • High Availability: Experience in 100% SLA uptime environments.
  • Educational Background: BS or MS degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field.
  • Additional Skills: Experience with RPC, microservices, and front-end frameworks like NextJS and ReactJS.

Benefits

  • Competitive Salary: Attractive compensation package.
  • Professional Growth: Continuous learning and development opportunities.
  • Flexible Work: Flexible working hours and remote work options.
  • Conference Support: Support for attending professional conferences and events.
  • Innovative Environment: Work with a talented and motivated team in a dynamic and innovative setting.
