We are looking for a person to join a small team creating a system that processes statistical data from social media platforms. The project is not a typical Rails application - we are looking for an ambitious person who is not afraid to work on something that is not an ordinary CRUD. We process gigabytes of data every day and perform aggregations and analyses. You’ll be responsible for building new features, maintaining existing codebase, and developing scalable solutions to support even more data.
