Ruby on Rails Developer

Avo is looking for an experienced Ruby on Rails developer to join our dream team.

This is a full-time role for a developer who will dedicate their time partly to development, partly to content creation, writing documentation, and DevRel.

Salary Range: $22K - $32K per year

Time commitment: Full time(~40 hours/week)

Timezone: US/European time zones

🥑 What is Avo?

Me and Paul have crafted a cool product that our users and customers love.

We build dev-tools that helps indie hackers, small and medium-sized teams, and some more big-well-known companies (that we can't talk about publicly).

Our users build advanced CRUD-like apps incredibly fast.

🛠️ What you’ll be doing

We move fast, break things, and fix them as fast.

We don’t have sprints (yet) but work on what’s needed in the moment.

We work with a sense of urgency as our users depend on our tooling.

Team members get to work on building new features from the ground up and maintain and refactor existing ones.

We sometimes build new products.

We also provide tech support to customers so you’ll get to work on various other products build by other teams.

We pride ourselves that our tools are thoroughly tested and documented.

📚 What you’ll learn

We love teaching folks what we know.

You’ll learn about becoming a better developer (of course), about building a product (harder than it seems), building a community (even harder), working efficiently in a team, providing great customer support, open-source, and about building a business in a lean way.

💻 Tech stack

We work almost entirely with Rails. Other things we use:

• Hotwire (quite a lot) (StimulusJS & Turbo)
• View Components
• Hatchbox for deployment
• Vitepress for docs
• all the new and cool stuff for Rails

👩 Ideal candidate

You are a mid-level Rails developer with at least two years of hands-on experience.

You used Hotwire in production.

You like writing tests.

You enjoy writing technical content and maybe like to make videos or would like to do it.

You like memes and GIFs (we don’t care if you pronounce them GIFs or JIFs).

You like being a part of and building a cool community.

You value Open-Source.

💌 How to apply

Please email jobs@avohq.io and include some information about yourself and why you're interested the role. As you can imagine, emails that show they understand what Avo does and why you might be a good fit really get our attention. If you contributed in the past to Avo, even better.

We definitely want to see you worked before with Hotwire and some of the technical content (writing or video) you put out there.
