What you should bring:
4+ years of industry experience, ideally working with React and Ruby on Rails but Python and server-side JS experience is welcome. Solid understanding of Agile development practices and Lean Software Development principles. You should be very efficient at understanding different use cases, prioritizing tasks, working with Git and implementing the GitHub flow. We ship new releases every day. Not afraid of taking risks, and vested in making our business a success, together.
Nice to Have:
Open source contributions (please send a link to your GitHub profile). Good knowledge of object-oriented patterns in Ruby — we think it is crucial to apply proper object-oriented principles to grow the application. You are proficient enough to optimize relational databases (PostgreSQL 9.4+), using noSQL databases (we use Redis and ElasticSearch), and scale the application (we use Heroku). Good ElasticSearch knowledge and experience with maintaining performant PostgreSQL databases is a huge plus.
