Everyone's looking for great devs, and of course so are we. But aren't you sick of job listings which say "Kick-Ass" or "Ninja" or "Brilliant" or "Best of the Best"? I am.
We need devs, senior or junior, who want to work in a small but high-class team that gets shit done. We're good at making software and we're fairly agnostic and flexible about the technology we use to do it - eighteen months ago we decided we hated PHP and since then we've moved about 70% of our code to Rails. The two apps share a MySQL DB.
Jenkins runs tests for us. "bundle exec cap deploy" takes our code straight to AWS and into production, where it's served by a clever mixture of nginx, varnish, perlbal, unicorn, and apache. Around the edges there's memcache, redis/resque, sphinx. No Mongo at this point. Our newer apps are often on Heroku, using Postgres instead of MySQL and maybe DataMapper instead of ActiveRecord.
Your role in this is to slot into the team and bu! ild quality software. Mostly this means writing Ruby and RSpec specs, but there might be a bit of PHP in there as well until we eradicate it. You'll probably have strong opinions on tech choices and dev process, and that's a good thing.
Oh yeah, brogrammers, corporate types, and emacs users probably shouldn't bother applying.
