Hey everyone. AppStack is continuing to grow, and as such, I'm looking for additional Ruby engineers. We have several positions available, but at the moment I'm primarily hiring engineers to work on the next iteration of our core technology stack (SOA, Sinatra, etc.). More information on the position is provided below. If you're interested, please email me at [email protected].
*The Company* Appstack is a fast-growing startup based out of Temecula, CA who’s goal is to build simple, intelligent tools that allow small businesses to effortlessly acquire and interact with their customers. Our core technology stack includes Ruby 1.9.2, Rails 3.2, Sinatra, MongoDB and Backbone.js with interfaces developed using HAML, SASS, Coffeescript and principles of OOCSS. Having a passion for these technologies, regardless of your level of experience, is a huge plus. We have several positions available for developers meeting the following criteria: *Responsibilities* - Maintain and optimize our core technology stack (Rails, Sinatra, MongoDB, Heroku) - Write tests and documentation for core technologies - Integrate third-party tools, services and APIs - Develop administrative interfaces and functionality *Requirements* - BS in Computer Science or 3+ years experience - Solid understanding of the full web technology stack from interface to database - Experience using an MVC framework such as Rails, Backbone.js or CodeIgniter - Experience using Git, SVN or Mercurial in a team-based environment - Ability to develop complete interfaces using HTML, CSS and JavaScript - Ability to test, debug, identify and document issues *Bonus Points* - Experience designing and implementing REST APIs - Experience working with MongoDB (or another Document-Store DB) - Experience developing interfaces with HAML, SASS and CoffeeScript - Experience developing mobile web applications - Familiarity with Google APIs (such as Analytics, AdWords and Maps) - Knowledge of visual design principles (grids, typography, color theory, etc.) *Perks* - Competitive Salary - Health Benefits (Medical, Dental & Vision) - Flexible Hours - Weekly Company Lunches - Full Snack and Drink Bar (aka Free Beer) - Casual Ping Pong Games (unless you play Jed, then that sh*t gets real!) - Company BBQ's & Paintball Trips While we certainly value technical ability and experience, we're most interested in good communication, hard work, and the lack of an ego. Local candidates are preferred, but telecommuting is also an option. -- SD Ruby mailing list [email protected] http://groups.google.com/group/sdruby
