🚀 ABOUT THE ROLE
We are looking for full-stack rails developers to help build our customer-facing hiring platform and internal tools that allow our teams to support our growing roster of skilled workers. You are excited to be an integral part of a small team that works quickly and dynamically in a startup environment.
What do we mean by full-stack? You may have specialized in front-end or back-end development over the course of your career but you have a solid understanding of the complete application stack. You keep up-to-date with new ecosystem trends and have opinions. In our case, we believe that not every application needs to be a Single Page App and it is faster and more efficient to keep our business logic on the server. We want to empower our engineers to build complete features, work closely with the product team, and have ownership of their work. We believe in the power of test coverage to allow us to move quickly and deploy often. We believe in using just the right amount of technology to solve business problems at hand, and not more.
Most of the team is located in New York City but our engineering team is remote-first. The team works US east coast hours and gets together onsite quarterly.
🏋️‍♀️ WHAT YOU’LL DO
- Work with the other members of the development team to produce clean, scalable, tested code
- Participate in code reviews and architectural meetings to produce the best solutions to the task at hand
- Own your projects and be responsible for asking questions, finding edge cases, and executing quickly and efficiently
- Continually improve and modernize our existing code base
🧬 WHO YOU ARE
- Technical: You have 5+ years of experience building modern web applications (or a really good story about why you don’t). On the front-end, you build modern websites with semantic HTML and CSS and modern javascript frameworks. You’re excited to see how far you can push Hotwire to produce modern, reactive interfaces. On the back-end, you have experience building production Ruby on Rails applications. You love ActiveRecord, but know how to drop into SQL when needed.
- Social: You enjoy collaborating both with other engineers as well as your non-technical teammates to understand a problem and explore / compare solutions.
- Entrepreneurial: You enjoy smaller work environments where you get to wear multiple hats. You like that what you get out of your work is directly tied to what you put in.
- Experienced: You have done this before. You are ready to jump into an early stage startup and understand that it is a messy, challenging, and fulfilling experience.
