Job description

Whitespectre is a product-centric,Rails-led technology consultancy for both vc funded start-ups and large, established companies across the US and Europe. We’re also a product incubator with our own applications and b2b SaaS platform. As long-term partners to our clients, we’ve played a critical role in their growth- both through the products we co-create and the expertise and processes we bring. Proudly remote first since 2013, we’re a close-knit team of 75, working in fast-moving, cross-functional agile pods to solve interesting technical challenges and drive real business impact.
 
What's it like to be a Senior Rails engineer at Whitespectre? Read this article from our Engineering team about working at Whitespectre.
 

This is the right position for you if want-
 
  • The challenge of collaborating with business stakeholders and Product Managers to advocate for technology solutions while bearing in mind the tradeoffs for business results
  • The responsibility of designing new architectures and being confident to justify your technology decisions. (Plus debating and recognizing when a colleague has an even better idea!)
  • To solve problems that can’t be addressed by just searching Stack Overflow
  • The opportunity to go outside your core Rails expertise and strengthen skills with other technologies (e.g. Elixr, React.js or Node.js)
  • An environment where excellent communication skills (both verbal and written) are valued and honed

A culture where people from different backgrounds interact, collaborate and reach a shared goal
 
The “check the box” Requirements
 
  • 4+ years of experience in software development, 3+ years of Rails
  • Experience contributing to technical decision making within a team
  • Can work full-time with significant crossover with the core hours: 11am - 6pm Central European Time
  • Live outside of the US. Please, no recruitment agencies.

 
What else is great about working at Whitespectre?
 
  • Interesting challenges: We’ve done everything from scaling high-performance, high concurrency backends, building beautiful (but complex) user interfaces to handling real-time event streams from hardware devices..
  • Grow everyday: Be in an environment that embraces constant learning and exploring - whether it’s a new skill, a new way of thinking, or a new product experiment, we know it’s the key to staying motivated.
  • Career progression: Get the opportunities, knowledge sharing, and mentorship to grow- whether you want to move into management or Principle Engineer. We proudly promote from within.
  • Work-life balance: Thrive at work, but know that it doesn’t take over your life. Clear processes and realistic planning avoids fires!
  • Paid Meetups: We love remote, but face to face is pretty great too. Come meet with your colleagues in Barcelona or at a local meetup.
  • Competitive rates, long-term outlook: We offer competitive rates and a long-term, full-time contract position. Many of our team members have been with us for 5+ years.
