readMedia is looking for a <superlative> RoR developer to add to our growing team. We are a product company; we are not a consultancy. This means that you will be able to focus your efforts to help grow and evolve a code base over time. Also, our product is real (1000s of users, 100s of paying customers), large (100s of models, GBs of data), distributed and runs on the AWS platform. We deployed our first commercial Rails app in 2006 and we know our stuff. If this intimidates you, please move along, there are plenty of other great gigs listed here. However, if this excites or intrigues you, then we want to hear from you!
Specifically, we’re looking for:
- Real world experience developing, deploying and scaling RoR applications.
- A strong understanding of Object Oriented Programming and design.
- A strong understanding of database design.
- Someone who tests the code they commit.
- A team player with strong communication skills.
Bonus points for:
- Front-end development expertise.
- Distributed systems experience.
- B.S. degree in Computer Science (or equivalent).
We subscribe to the Joel Spolsky criteria for all of our employees: people who are:
- Smart, and…
- Get things done.
Why work for readMedia?
readMedia gives you the chance to make a very big difference in a short time while doing really innovative work in our industry. We offer competitive pay, a workplace that encourages you to have a life of your own, and people who appreciate wh! at you can do. We're not a sweatshop and there's very little e! go here; the asshole quotient is extremely low.
We value people who contribute thoughtfully and well to our efforts and share our commitment to excellence and dedication to our customers. Your career here will only be limited by your desire and ability to contribute to our overall success.
We think it's false and condescending to have "wacky" startup offices but that quiet, comfortable and premium amenities make sense, like free espresso and a few beers on Fridays. You will of course also get health and dental (we pay the premiums), paid holidays, a Simple IRA with a matching plan, paid parking, and the chance to work with talented colleagues.
To apply: If this describes you, please send a resume and cover letter (our CEO loves cover letters) to colin@readmedia.com.
