We are looking for a Ruby on Rails Architect to work on a new startup project in a CTO/Architect-like role, taking it from paper-idea into a real product. It is a salaried position, and you will also enjoy the upside of equity compensation. You’ll be working with the latest and greatest technologies, building new products from beginning to end, and learning many different aspects of the business.
You need to have several years of Ruby on Rails and general web software development experience. In addition to your development skills, you’ll have to be comfortable working in an entrepreneurial and innovation-oriented environment, which means being able to self-direct, take initiative and manage your own project and schedule.
It’s our belief that we live in the age of great user experience. Although this is a development position, you either have to be good at the UX, or be capable of learning how to build technology products that delight users.
