You will work in a cross functional team together with product and data to conceptualize and develop new features for our product and platform. Work smarter, not harder. Build solutions that enable us to move faster as we scale and not build 1-offs. Iterate quickly towards the best solutions for our customers and business.

  • PostgreSQL, Kafka, Sidekiq, Redis
  • Heroku and AWS
  • Open sourced Ruby gems as part of regular work

That’s you:

4+ years experience in backend development working on complex systems Experience writing robust, scalable, maintainable HTTP and RESTful APIs.
