  • Participate in on-call rotations to assist troubleshooting product operations, security operations, and urgent engineering issues.

What You’ll Bring 

  • Significant professional experience with Ruby on Rails
  • Strong experience with relational databases (postgres preferred).
  • Demonstrated capacity to clearly and concisely communicate about complex technical, architectural, and/or organizational problems and propose thorough iterative solutions
  • Experience with performance and optimization problems and a demonstrated ability to both diagnose and prevent these problems

  • Experience owning a project from concept to production, including proposal, discussion, and execution
  • Self-motivated and self-managing, with strong organizational skills
