Ruby on Rails Engineer

We are a team of 20-ish Rails engineers. Obviously, our primary technology is Ruby on Rails, and our database of choice is PostgreSQL. Our projects are written in the DDD methodology and we are proud of our excellent test coverage across projects.

We mostly build APIs, admin dashboards, and integrations with 3rd party services. Without us, there would be no APIs for the JS and mobile teams to consume! We don’t like to write a lot of documentation manually, so we generate our API documentation from tests. We regularly share knowledge through weekly presentations and discussions, and we often collaborate with the JS team, the mobile teams, and DevOps. We like quality software, automating boring stuff, BBQs at Jarun or Mrežnica, and we aren’t fans of leaky abstractions, flaky tests, missing and/or bad documentation.
