Senior Ruby Software Engineer

We’re the indie media company helping millions of people succeed at work. And we're on a roll, growing faster than any company you'll have worked at before. For the past five years we've benefited from consistent triple digit growth.

We make content - from in-depth guides, to training courses, to members forums that help people succeed at work. We support organizations through better led, better equipped teams that benefit from smarter buying decisions.

We've built a portfolio of influential online brands with community memberships, products, and strategic partnerships that work together to seamlessly connect people with the knowledge, information and tools they need to succeed.

We’re looking for a Senior Ruby Software Engineer to join our remote team of experienced engineers who develop and maintain our main systems and micro-services architecture. The core Rails applications you will focus on, power our group's media network and form the heart of a mesh of sites that is being used by millions of users and software advertisers across hundreds of industries.

In this role you can work remotely or in a flexible regime, if you are in Curitiba, Brazil. Keep in mind that our teams work in the PST time zone, and your hours should be at least partially compatible with it.

This contract position is available as either a fully remote or hybrid position if you are located close enough to our coworking space in Curitiba. The role offers a competitive daily rate in USD. Compensation is determined through interviews and a review of education, experience, knowledge, skills, abilities of the applicant, equity with other team members, and alignment with market data.
