We’re seeking a Senior Backend Engineer (Ruby on Rails) with at least 5 years of experience on large-scale projects to join our vibrant Engineering team. This is primarily a backend-focused role, so your main goal will be designing and building robust APIs, services, and data-driven solutions.

  • Partner with QA & MLOps to ensure our applications stay reliable, scalable, and efficient
  • Solve challenging technical problems and work with complex data to deliver seamless user experiences
  • Mentor junior engineers (and keep learning a ton yourself!)
  • Dive into internal meetups and discussions on a variety of software engineering topics
  • Leverage online resources and courses—we support continuous learning and growth
  • Have a structured career development path – check out our Engineering Job Ladder.

What You Bring
Backend Focus
  • Ruby on Rails Proficiency: At least 3 years of hands-on experience with Ruby on Rails
  • Relational Databases: Strong SQL skills (e.g., PostgreSQL) and experience working with complex schemas
  • API & Microservices: Familiarity with architecting RESTful APIs, microservices, or asynchronous backend systems
  • Testing Enthusiasm: Experience with TDD, RSpec, or similar testing frameworks is a plus
  • Performance Mindset: Understanding of scalability, performance optimization, and security best practices
(Awesome) Bonus Points
  • React Know-How or Willingness to Learn: Familiarity with React, JavaScript, or TypeScript can help you collaborate across the full stack
  • UI Collaboration: Interest in or experience with bridging backend services to polished front-end experiences
