Software Engineer

Our talented development team is ready to expand and is looking for a Software Engineer who can shine on the back-end, the front-end, or both. If that engineer is you, we need you. Code ninjas: check your nunchucks at the door. We are looking for a real person who can join our team and have a hands-on impact on our business, not someone who has artfully mastered the learning of the latest buzzwords.

We are a startup that helps the real estate industry save time and money. Although our company is still young it is already generating revenue. Our application stack is currently based on Ruby on Rails, PostgreSQL, Redis/Sidekiq and Elasticsearch.

We enjoy exploring new technologies. In fact, we are considering converting some of the performance-critical components of our platform to D and/or Go.
