About the Role

We’re looking for a passionate and experienced Ruby on Rails Engineer to join our growing product engineering team. This is a hands-on development role where you’ll work on building reliable, scalable, and performance-oriented backend systems. As part of a product-first company, you’ll have the opportunity to shape features from the ground up and take ownership of your code from design to deployment.

You will be involved in building robust APIs, designing efficient data models, and integrating with external services, all while contributing to a clean and maintainable codebase. If you’re excited by the challenge of creating backend systems that power real-world applications — and you enjoy working in a fast-paced, collaborative environment — this role is for you.

Key Responsibilities

• Develop and maintain backend services using Ruby on Rails, ensuring code quality, performance, and scalability.
• Design and implement RESTful APIs that interface seamlessly with frontend and third-party systems.
• Work closely with product managers, designers, and frontend engineers to translate requirements into technical specifications.
• Write and optimize SQL queries to interact efficiently with large datasets, ensuring data integrity and performance.
• Implement unit, integration, and performance tests to maintain high system reliability.
• Participate in code reviews, share knowledge, and uphold engineering best practices.
• Troubleshoot and debug complex backend issues quickly and effectively.
• Contribute to architectural decisions and help improve the overall system design.
• (Bonus) Deploy, monitor, and maintain services using AWS cloud infrastructure, ensuring high availability and scalability.

What We're Looking For

• 3+ years of professional experience working with Ruby on Rails in a production environment.
• Strong command of SQL — you should be comfortable writing complex queries, optimizing performance, and designing efficient schemas.
• Solid understanding of web application architecture, security practices, and RESTful service design.
• Experience in working with tools such as PostgreSQL, Redis, Sidekiq, or similar.
• Familiarity with Git, CI/CD pipelines, and agile development workflows.
• Strong communication skills and the ability to collaborate across teams.
• A proactive and ownership-driven mindset — you care about shipping high-quality code and continuously improving the product.
• Bonus: Exposure to AWS services (such as EC2, S3, RDS, Lambda) or DevOps experience is a plus.

Why Join Us

• Ownership from Day One – Build and launch features end-to-end in a supportive and fast-paced environment.
• Product-Driven Culture – Work closely with design and product teams to build meaningful experiences.
• Growth-Focused – Learn, lead, and grow your technical and product skills alongside a high-caliber team.
• Flexible Work Environment – We support remote work, async communication, and trust-driven autonomy.
