Our Ideal Candidate

Is someone who's worked in an Agile engineering team before at a small startup where you also developed a couple solid applications using Ruby on Rails and other MVC frameworks.

You come at issues from a product standpoint, and you get excited about product, company and business challenges.

We're especially looking for engineers who can demonstrate aptitude in the following skills:

Real tech fluency: You can build anything with anything, and you probably have 3+ years of software development experience with a couple of those years working in Ruby on Rails.
Communication skills: You aren't just great at listening, speaking and writing. You are able to convey complex ideas and information regardless of the medium or situation.
Product-Centric Thinking: You come from a tech background but you have opinions about how the product you're building should work. You dig deep and work with customers, the company and our executive team to uncover the ideal way to leverage technology to solve problems.
Self-Directed: Once you've got something, we don't have to worry about it. You have a bias toward action. Our team doesn't have QA, project managers or product managers so we take ownership of what we build.
Passion: You love what you do and can share side projects or open source contributions with a GitHub repository, personal project page or blog.
Just Generally Awesome: You take your work seriously but not yourself. You show everyone respect regardless of the circumstance. Extra points if we think you're funny or if you're already a car enthusiast!

Bonus Points For:

Experience working collaboratively as a team. We use GitHub, Google Hangouts and Asana to get stuff done. We're agnostic about what you've used (and no judging if you're more into BitBucket) and are more interested in the process you like to use.
Experience using pull requests to create rapid prototypes and new features. If we like what you make (and if you like what we're making), we agree to merge it to production!
Unique ways to automate and get things done. For example, if you've created a Ruby gem to complete a task in your projects, tell us about it! :)
