Mid-Level Rails Developer

Role Overview

We're looking for a mid-level Ruby on Rails developer with 2-5 years of experience who is eager to grow while shipping real features. You should be comfortable working in a modern Rails 8 codebase and embrace the DHH Rails Way philosophy - convention over configuration, pragmatic simplicity, and building beautiful, maintainable applications.

This is a hands-on development role with mentorship and code review. You'll implement features end-to-end, collaborate closely with the team, and steadily take on more ownership using Hotwire (Turbo & Stimulus) and Kamal deployment.

Key Responsibilities

• Develop and maintain Rails 8 application features following Rails conventions
• Implement responsive, fast user experiences with Turbo and Stimulus
• Write clean, tested, maintainable Ruby code and participate in code reviews
• Help deploy and maintain applications using Kamal and Docker
• Collaborate with the team, ask good questions, and grow your skills with mentorship
• Debug issues, fix bugs, and ship improvements with reasonable independence

Required Skills

• 2-5 years of professional Ruby on Rails experience
• Solid understanding of the DHH Rails Way philosophy - convention over configuration, DRY, and pragmatic simplicity
• Working knowledge of Rails 8 and its modern features (Solid Queue, Solid Cache, Solid Cable)
• Hands-on experience with Turbo (Turbo Drive, Turbo Frames, Turbo Streams)
• Familiarity with Stimulus JS for modest JavaScript interactions
• Comfortable writing tests and using Git in a collaborative workflow
• Able to work the 5:00 PM - 1:00 AM IST shift to overlap with the US team

Nice to Have

• Experience with Tailwind CSS
• Familiarity with PostgreSQL or SQLite
• Exposure to test-driven development (Minitest or RSpec)
• Experience with Kamal or Docker-based deployment
• Contributions to open source Rails projects
