About the job
Are you an Engineer with a passion for building user-friendly web applications? Join our dynamic team and contribute directly to the development of our SaaS B2B product. You'll be responsible for designing and implementing scalable, reusable frontend components while collaborating closely with developers, product managers, and designers. You'll have the autonomy to enhance the maintainability and security of our application, ensuring it remains cutting-edge.
We serve our customers through a web app built with React, TypeScript, Webpack, NextJS, and other technologies, which communicates with a REST API built with Ruby on Rails, Postgres, and Redis. We are currently evaluating building parts of our applications using the latest Ruby on Rails frontend technologies such as Hotwire, Turbo and Stimulus. We use GitHub for version control and code reviews, Semaphore and Github Actions for CI/CD, Rollbar for production error tracking, and rely on Heroku for infrastructure management. If you're ready to take on new challenges and make a meaningful impact, we’d love to hear from you!
🎯 What You’ll Do
- Build Scalable Solutions: Design and develop scalable, reusable components and backend solutions that drive our product roadmap.
- Champion Best Practices: Lead by example in encouraging and implementing engineering best practices across the team.
- Enhance Application Integrity: Autonomously improve the maintainability and security of the application, refine software design, reduce technical debt, and ensure dependencies are kept up to date.
- Collaborate Across Teams: Work closely with engineering, product, and design teams to innovate and ensure the timely completion of tasks.
- Foster Cross-Functional Collaboration: Engage with other departments, such as marketing, sales, and customer success, to understand their needs and incorporate their feedback into the product development process.
🌟 What We’re Looking For
You’ll thrive in this role if you:
- 4+ years of coding experience, with at least 3 years of Ruby on Rails experience
- Knowledge of TypeScript, and modern frameworks like React, Next.js, and React Query
- SQL knowledge is a plus
- Experience in designing, developing, and documenting REST APIs and automated Testing, especially unit tests.
- Experience in developing and maintaining design systems, ensuring consistency and high-quality standards across the company’s products.
- A demonstrated ability to work effectively with cross-functional teams, including designers, product managers, and developers.
- Excellent verbal and written communication skills, with the ability to explain complex technical concepts to non-technical stakeholders. Fluency in English, both written and spoken, to succeed in our remote, partly asynchronous work environment.
