Senior Ruby On Rails Developer (VIRTUAL)
 

Work From Anywhere
Our client is a virtual organization. They log in from their homes, a nearby office, one of their global office locations, or wherever they have an internet connection.

Who We Are

Our client is an organization of developers and engineers who are excited about the
ever-changing world of software and technology. Their passion is building the next
generation of consumer and business applications. They don't utilize the "factory"
approach to software development, believing that coding is a creative process akin to an
artistic endeavor. They also believe strongly in the benefits and sustainability of open
source software and the philosophy behind it.

Our Client's Philosophy

Bandwidth and software have finally reached the point where online collaboration online
is as rich, or more-so, than in person. As such, we've begun building out the foundation
for a new breed of distributed workplace.

Traditional workplaces try to build magic palaces, forcing everyone into one location and lifestyle. That practice is about to come to an end, and open source is leading this change. It doesn't matter how intoxicating the palace is, every coder is part artist, eccentric and ideated. Big boxes and rules about where you can live are the antipathy of a coder's passions.

Our client is a collective vision of the next generation office environment. They are
building the tools to empower a rich collaborative team software development
experience: always available video conferencing, VOIP, IM, presence, and virtual white
boarding, all connected through smart self-managing project tools.

They live anywhere, dream anything, and code everything.
