Full Stack Engineer Ruby on Rails

My client, based in London, is looking for a Full Stack Engineer (RoR)

About the role:

We’re continuously improving our product, building key features that will move the needle in a big way. Instead of an endless product roadmap, we run short development cycles to test assumptions and make smart decisions quickly. This isn’t a sprint and there’s no project managers, we work closely with the rest of the business to make sure we deliver the most value to our customers.

Our stack uses Ruby for most of the backend, with Rails, PostgreSQLand Redismaking up the majority of our core product. We use modern front end tooling, with ES6, Reactand Tachyons.

When it comes to shipping code, we love GitHubcode reviews and making CircleCIhappy before anything gets into production. We mostly deploy to Heroku, with some heavy lifting on AWS. We favour feature flags over staging environments and deploy to production as often as we need to; deployment cycles shouldn’t get in the way of delivering value.

About you:

We’re looking for an experienced Ruby developer who thrives in small, fast-moving engineering teams.

Essential skills:

Additionally, You’re humble, you lap up feedback, and you want to learn and teach. You roll with it. You understand that startups are unpredictable environments, and are comfortable with a degree of chaos. You fit right into our culture of supporting and helping each other.

Not essential, but nice to have:

You practice test-driven development. You’ve worked with relational databases at scale, and had to carefully consider schema design for query performance. You have a computer science related degree.

Competitive salary dependent on experience plus generous share options. We work from a beautiful co-working space near Old St in central London. The office has a gym and showers, bike storage, free snacks and drinks, and a programme of social events.
