Remote Senior Full-Stack Rails Developer at Year old startup (Sydney, Australia) (allows remote)

Job description

We’re a year-old startup that’s initially grown with a licensed tech solution that includes customer and admin mobile/web apps. We now need to incrementally build out our own stack and therefore need an experienced, hands on dev to kick start and grow our tech team.

You’ll be working directly with the CEO (me) and the growth team to plan and incrementally build out our tech stack. I’ve built out software and data-science teams, am a Rails dev/geek and (I hope) not a dick so we should get along well.

We’ll work on delivering value quickly without skipping on important stuff like good test coverage, thoughtfully refactored code and a CI suite. My plan is to quickly grow the tech team as we prove value to the board. You’ll have the opportunity to grow into a management position (although the CTO will probably need to be Sydney based) or just keep your head down cutting code.
