Job Description
Senior Ruby on Rails Engineer | Remote (Eastern Time) | New York HQ
We are partnered with a Series A startup headquartered in New York, recently backed to scale their platform and engineering team.
They are building a high-impact product with serious traction and are now making key senior engineering hires to support their next stage of growth. This is a genuine opportunity to join early, shape the technical direction and grow with the business as it scales.
- The Role:
- Senior Ruby on Rails Engineer, fully remote (Eastern Time)
- Small, autonomous engineering team with real ownership and accountability
- Core backend work on a scaling platform with real complexity and interesting problems
- Greenfield development alongside modernisation of existing systems
- Close collaboration with CTO, product leadership and fellow engineers
- Opportunity to influence architecture decisions and engineering culture early
- What They Are Looking For:
- 5+ years Ruby on Rails in a product-led or startup environment
- Strong API design, REST and GraphQL
- PostgreSQL, Redis, Sidekiq
- Experience with AWS or GCP
- Experience integrating or deploying AI/ML capabilities into production systems
- Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines and modern engineering practices
- Someone who takes ownership end to end, not just their ticket queue
- Scale-up experience preferred, you know what it means to build and ship without a safety net
- Why This Role Stands Out:
- Early stage with real backing, not a pre-revenue bet
- Remote first with a collaborative, high-trust culture
- Equity on offer at a stage where it still means something
- Engineering leadership that came up as engineers, not managers
MUST BE CURRENTLY BASED IN THE UNITED STATES & NO SPONSORSHIP REQUIRED.
Compensation:
$180,000 - $280,000 + equity + benefits
