GreenTech Senior Ruby on Rails Developer – Remote
Salary: £70,000 £85,000 + Benefits & Equity
Location: Fully remote (UK based)

How would you like to be part of the team that leads in cutting 8% of global emissions, while also tackling food poverty?

Leading more sustainable lives isn’t hard but changing behaviours can be.

We’re working with a company enabling the redistribution of food that would otherwise go to waste and they’re already a global success with a web and mobile app live in 150 countries.

They’ve always been remote and do a lot to ensure their teams are not just succeeding but are genuinely happy, avoiding burnout and creating a super friendly and collaborative culture. Everyone is passionate about addressing social and environmental issues, compassionate and bought into taking action.

You’ll be working within a team of around 12 people, part of a broader tech team of about 30, where every person contributes their own ideas. Pair programming and knowledge sharing are common and shared goals for the platform centre around impact.

The business has been defining its progress frameworks, so you’ll know how to advance your career and grow.

Their web platform is built with Ruby on Rails and React, with AWS hosting everything. Over the last few years, they’ve moved from a monolith to a microservice-based platform and are looking for someone to add new features, improve efficiency and scale up to anticipate many millions of users.

It’d be ideal if you’ve worked in a company where multiple teams contribute to a single product or service. Someone who’s seen the evolution of a product from MVP to a scalable app with, ideally, millions of users or growing complexity.

In a senior capacity, you’ll also help others to grow through code reviews and coaching where you can, catching mistakes, helping people avoid them in future and introducing processes if necessary.

They have high standards when it comes to testing and have QA Engineers embedded into their teams, coaching and supporting devs to improve their capabilities and testing knowledge.

Critically though, you need to have a passion for tackling the climate crisis. They want people who have a good awareness of the scale of the problem and the urgency with which we must act to overcome the challenges ahead.

What’s in it for you? Well, the list is too long to fit in here. Alongside a great salary, true flexibility to work how you like, abroad for 6 months, timings that fit around your life, no clock-watching and real progression, you’ll be joining a company that is already changing the world and has its eyes set firmly on scaling its impact.

If this sounds appealing to you and you have some commercial experience with React, please hit apply and let’s have a chat.
