Job description

Our engineering team builds scalable, user-centric software for digital entrepreneurs in the DACH region and beyond. We ship fast, iterate constantly, and care deeply about the people using what we build., * Own features end-to-end: from understanding the problem to shipping the solution and making sure it actually works for users.

  • Design, build, and maintain high-quality Ruby code using best practices.
  • Build back-end components for web applications and integrate AI-powered capabilities where they create real value.
  • Collaborate with designers, product managers, and other engineers to figure out what to build and why.
  • Work on technical feasibility assessments, architecture decisions, and process improvements.
  • Test for performance, responsiveness, and security.
  • Stay curious about new technologies and push for their adoption when it makes sense.

Requirements
