Lead Frontend Software Engineer

Hi, We&rsquo;re CompanyCam We create simple-to-use, visual-first communication and accountability tools for contractors. Imagine a B2B SaaS app that doesn&rsquo;t look like garbage, built by a <a href="https://companycam.com/team" rel="nofollow">team of capable, laid back people</a>.&nbsp; But don&rsquo;t let the chill throw you off; we&rsquo;re a fast-growing, product-led startup with big plans for the future. The Role We&rsquo;re looking for a sharp, self-motivated, problem-solving Backend Engineer to join our team. Using your knowledge of Ruby on Rails, you&rsquo;ll work alongside other engineers, designers, and product managers to tackle everything from huge company initiatives to modest but important bug fixes, from start to finish. You&rsquo;ll also collaborate with your product team on discovery, helping to assess the direction and feasibility of product changes. And, perhaps most importantly, you&rsquo;ll actively contribute to the evolution of the culture and processes of a growing engineering team. Why CompanyCam? Did you wake up this morning with a burning desire to create apps for contractors? No? I didn&rsquo;t think so. I admit, it&rsquo;s not something one thinks about without some prompting. But bear with me for a moment... Contractors are everywhere. They build our homes, they literally put roofs over our heads, they wire up our electricity, give us access to the internet, fix our plumbing and AC, paint our homes&hellip;the list goes on.&nbsp; At CompanyCam, you&rsquo;ll work with intelligent, kind people to make contractors' work easier. You'll create time for them so they can get shit done and spend more time with their families. Sound corny? You&rsquo;ll find that midwesterner ethos permeate our culture (we&rsquo;re based in Lincoln, NE), so if you can&rsquo;t hang with that, no hard feelings, but this probably isn&rsquo;t the role for you. Working At CompanyCam Our Product and Engineering departments do things a little differently. We use Basecamp&rsquo;s <a href="https://basecamp.com/shapeup" rel="nofollow">Shape Up</a> method (fused with empowered product teams a la Marty Cagan's <a href="https://www.amazon.com/INSPIRED-Create-Tech-Products-Customers/dp/1119387507/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&amp;keywords=inspired&amp;qid=1591733279&amp;sr=8-1" rel="nofollow">Inspired</a>) to organize and execute our work. That means you&rsquo;ll work in a close-knit team consisting of a product manager, a product designer, and other engineers on an area of the product in 6-week cycles. During cycles you'll spend most of your time implementing product improvements, but you'll also work with your team shaping (generating and vetting) product improvements for next cycle. After each cycle you&rsquo;ll get a 1-2 week cool-down where you&rsquo;ll pursue educational opportunities, work on pet projects, or smash some bugs that have been nagging at you. Rinse and repeat until code nirvana. Sounds nice, right? No sprinting, no scrumming, no death by 1,000 meetings. We protect our engineers' time, treat them like adults, and trust them to get their work done. We&rsquo;re also big on not overworking people. Put in your eight hours of focused, quality work and then TURN. SLACK. OFF. No nights and weekends. Our larger company culture is also refreshingly chill. We have fun, learn from each other, and don&rsquo;t take ourselves too seriously. We cover the important stuff too. We pay well, offer unlimited vacation, meaningful equity, health insurance, and other benefits. If you're local or down to move, we&rsquo;re custom remodeling a new office space in the Lincoln Haymarket area that you&rsquo;ll love. If you're remote (most of the engineering team is), we&rsquo;re well set up with great conference room video equipment so you'll feel like you&rsquo;re there with us, and once life is back to normal we&rsquo;ll fly you in a few times a year to hang out. What We Ask Of You Must-haves These are our non-negotiables: <ul> <li>Show up: have the courage to do difficult but necessary stuff.</li> <li>Grow up: take responsibility, learn continuously, and have a growth mindset.</li> <li>Do good: treat your co-workers and customers the way you want to be treated.</li> <li>Strong experience with and knowledge of Ruby on Rails.</li> <li>Experience working as a professional software engineer. (Sorry, we're not hiring new devs at this time.)</li> <li>Reside permanently and currently somewhere in the continental US. Alas, we're not set up to hire outside of the US.</li> </ul> Nice-to-haves Day to day, you&rsquo;ll spend 90%+ of your time working in&nbsp;Ruby on Rails, but, of course, that&rsquo;s not all you&rsquo;ll work with. While experience with the following technologies are not required (we&rsquo;re cool with some on-the-job learning), you will see them with varying levels of frequency: <ul> <li>GraphQL &amp; REST</li> <li>PostgreSQL</li> <li>Redis</li> <li>AWS services (S3, EC2, etc)</li> <li>ElasticSearch</li> <li>MongoDB</li> </ul> This position can be U.S. Remote or in our Lincoln office. At least one year of remote experience is required if you plan on working remotely. We are not accepting applicants outside the U.S. at this time.

Backend Engineer

Us We&rsquo;re a Ruby development studio. We&rsquo;ve been around for over 25 years, with a stable, growing business. We&rsquo;re busy. We tend to work on larger projects, typically with a mix of Front End, Back End and DevOps tasks. Rather than work on just one projects, each of our team typically work across a number of projects. Each person has 2-3 projects. Some of our clients are funded start-ups, but most of our work is for well-established companies with meaty problems to solve - like tricky payment flows, security and scaling. We value quiet thinkers and creative innovation. We try to automate as much of our processes as we can, so our engineers can focus on their work rather than babysitting a deploy. You You&rsquo;re an experienced rails developer. You know your stuff. Making nice things is what you do. Pride in the craft of engineering awesome features. You give thoughtful, considered code reviews. Sure, you could probably do some Start Up thing. Or you could get a job with a fancy title at a Google/Salesforce/IBM etc. But we think you&rsquo;ll probably like it more here. How about if I explain us a bit more: <ol> <li>We&rsquo;re not consultants.&nbsp;We don&rsquo;t take on projects for a few months and then hand over (all the while knowing that this elegant yet fragile code is pretty much impossible to maintain). We like being where the tyre hits the road, because we think that is where stuff gets really interesting. We value long term projects, because we know that by refining and iterating we can continually improve an idea.</li> <li>We all work together.&nbsp;To work together as a high performing team, we think meaningful conversations and interactions are important. To make great digital things, so many different parts need to come together perfectly - from UX to DevOps.</li> <li>We&rsquo;re not an ad agency &amp; we don&rsquo;t outsource.&nbsp;We build. We&rsquo;re pretty geeky, and while we have content, UX &amp; design people, we&rsquo;re undeniably technical. And to be technically good you need not only good people but excellent processes and a strong tech culture. People that care.&nbsp;</li> <li>We work with nice people&nbsp;as our clients. Life is too short to work with dickheads, and it goes both ways.</li> </ol> Full time This is a full time position. Just in case you&rsquo;re planning out your side hustle. This isn&rsquo;t it. And no, reading that book about the 4h work week and how you have never actually worked out how to quit Vim without turning off your mac and your fiendish plan is to get some guys in Vietnam to do all your dev work is not something you should bring up in the interview. Maybe tell us ahead of time and we can avoid tears later. Is this remote or on site? Well, with the dreaded COVID 19, everything has changed. We used to all work together in a really nice, light filled office that was located in the very epicentre of HipsterLand, Surry Hills. But since early March, we&rsquo;ve all been working from home. So we&rsquo;ll kit out your home office just right, and we&rsquo;ll Slack and Zoom away. You can work from wherever you&rsquo;d like. So you all work from home, but pretty soon you&rsquo;ll all be back in the office, right? Nup. We&rsquo;re pretty tight operationally. We track what people are working on, how well they&rsquo;re progressing, and how happy they are with their work. Since we changed to work from home, our productivity is way up, sick leave is way down, the teams happy and we&rsquo;re pretty busy. So we&rsquo;re good. However not everyone can work from their home, so we&rsquo;re also able to arrange an office if that works better for you. How much it pays Really well. Probably much better than where you are right now. But nowhere near as much as that recruiter swears you&rsquo;re actually worth. She would know, right? With all that deep deep Rails on Ruby experience, amazing contacts from all over LinkedIn, etc - she would never just make that up. Interested? If you&rsquo;re interested in this position, pro tip: please don&rsquo;t send in a huge Word doc CV. Just shoot an email to&nbsp;<a rel="nofollow">Sarah</a>&nbsp;&raquo; jobs@redant.com.au with an outline of the kind of projects you&rsquo;ve worked on, and some insight into who you are. We would love to hear from you.

Ruby on Rails Developer

Raycast makes it simple, fast and delightful to control your tools. We're looking for a Software Engineer to join our small team to build, own and scale the distribution of Raycast extensions via a store that developers around the world can contribute to. Raycast is a native Mac application with a significant focus on top-notch UI and interactions. We genuinely care about user experience, performance, privacy and ease of use. We had enough of dealing with slow and clunky tools. Raycast is our attempt to let you enjoy your daily workflows without all the distractions. When Apple announced the App Store in 2008, the distribution of software changed over night. Suddenly, developers could reach millions of customers. We believe it's about time to change how developers discover and consume productivity tools. At the center of this, is a store full of Raycast extensions that people can share and manage or discover new ones from others. We need hungry engineers that architect and build this store to revolutionise how developers experience productivity tools with us. We're a fully remote company and looking for candidates in the UTC timezone (London, Lisbon, Dakar, ...) &plusmn; 3 hours. This position is for a full-time employment. In this role you will... <ul> <li>Build the infrastructure of our store.&nbsp;You design a stable cloud infrastructure and backend architecture that is open for extension, and an API that other developers love to use. You're implementing the distribution of our extensions and work closely with macOS engineering where needed.</li> <li>Co-own the product and work self-directed.&nbsp;We're a small team of individual contributors. Everybody has autonomy and responsibility. You work on features from ideation over release to maintenance and shape the roadmap of the product.</li> <li>Shape the experience for contributors. The store is one piece of the puzzle. You generate ideas about how developers should add and maintain extensions. You optimise for ease-of-use for producers and consumers.</li> <li>Improve performance and care about quality. You dogfood your own features with our nightly builds, respond to user feedback in our community and jump into performance profiling to make API calls fast. You automate tedious tasks. At best, directly in Raycast.</li> <li>Wear many hats. In a small startup, we're all generalists. You might add a new page to our Vue.js website, set up infrastructure components, or write a blog post about a new feature.</li> </ul> You will be a great fit if... <ul> <li>You know how to build great APIs.&nbsp;Ideally, you've built and scaled APIs before and have a playbook to kickstart development with modern backend languages. You've worked with different types of data stores, and you know best practices around data modeling and access. Moreover, you can reason well about the tradeoffs of different programming languages and tech stacks without being dogmatic, f.e. decide if we should adopt GraphQL or REST.</li> <li>You're highly productive while writing quality code. We release updates every 1-2 weeks. You can break down big projects in small deliverables. You care about the outcome and take a pragmatic approach to deliver it. You keep things simple and rather write more code than adopting a third-party dependency. You know when you want a code review or need to write tests.</li> <li>You're product-minded. You have a sense for great user experience and feel when something is off. You work with continuous deployment and preview environments to get constant feedback and you have monitoring and analytics in place to quickly act when something unexpected happens. You're eager to optimize API responsiveness and dig deep when there is a need to resolve a tricky issue. You treat APIs as products and proactively iterate on them.</li> <li>You put our users first. Throughout Raycast you find many <a href="https://twitter.com/raycastapp/status/1322188380403281921?s=21" rel="nofollow">little details</a>. You pay attention to detail and provide our users a delightful experience. You can't stand bugs and don't shy away from user feedback.</li> <li>You're an empathetic communicator. You treat technology as tradeoffs. You may be opinionated but you're not ideological. When disagreeing, you communicate thoughtfully your perspective and compromise when needed. You're thriving in a team environment and hold your colleagues accountable.</li> </ul> Application process During our interview process, we want to make sure that both sides get a good understanding of what it feels to work together day-to-day. Our process contains a few steps: <ol> <li>Send us an engaging email.&nbsp;Tell us why you want to join Raycast and why you generally care about the problem we're solving. Make your first impression count. Share with us what excites you and how you envision your role at Raycast.</li> <li>An intro call with the founders.&nbsp;Both parties get to know each other. You learn more about Raycast and can ask us any question. From our side, we want to understand what motivated you to apply.</li> <li>Work on a real task. We want to demonstrate how it is to collaborate with the team. For this, we give you an assignment that we would actually build and create a shared Slack channel to communicate. We'll compensate you for the task.</li> <li>Another video call to present your task. Time to show your work in a short video call with some of us. Expect some role-specific questions to better understand how you tick.</li> </ol> After the last step, we get back to you with a decision. In rare cases, we might ask you for another call.
