Senior Ruby on Rails Engineer in San Francisco

Fri, 03 May 2013 10:46:56 GMT

A Senior Ruby on Rails Engineer at thredUP is a leading member of the engineering team focused primarily on building new features into the product and optimizing the current system. This person will be involved not only in working individually but also helping others on the team build their back end competency. They will be heavily involved in technology strategy and system architecture and will be responsible for the implementation.

The engineering environment at thredUP is fast paced and very agile. We use a modified scrum framework for our project management on a 2-week sprint cycle. We are looking for a hard-working, energetic developer that can handle some of the chaos that comes with the speed we move. We need a quick decision maker that can see more than just the roots of the trees.

We are looking for someone with a great work ethic and strong self-management skills. They must be a strong communicator and be comfortable with uncertainty and a little chaos. Experience in a fast paced team development environment is a must.

The job is hard and you must be comfortable with the uncertainty of a small agile team. Bugs and problems rarely come one at a time. They usually come all at once right at the most busy times. You should not be worried or panicked under pressure and in fact thrive.

We do like to have fun too! We regularly have happy hour events and are strong believers in "beer o'clock" near the end of the workday. Hump-day got you down? We have work from home Wednesdays! We also host coffee & espresso machines (with all the fixings too!) as well as a fridge completely dedicated to soda and beer.
