Bonanza.com is looking for a full-stack developer with the chops to wrangle one of the largest Ruby/Rails apps on the planet. We serve nearly 50,000 merchants, helping them sell 15 million items across numerous buying channels.
The Full Stack Developer at Bonanza will work across a variety of projects, gravitating toward those that are most stimulating for them. Our philosophy is that developers are most productive when they are given projects that best combine their talents &amp; interests.
Because of this customization between "person" and "projects," it is difficult to prescribe in advance the specific tasks that will comprise this job. But here is a representative sample of the challenges we're working on:
* How can we make a buyer's search experience as relevant as possible when 50,000 items match their query?
* How can we build the stickiest possible mobile buyer experience?
* What's it like to use the best toolset for managing an inventory of 100,000 items?
* Can we use natural language recognition to estimate the selling price of an item based on its title and category?
Our challenges range up and down the stack, in a variety of technologies. If you like working at scale, to make improvements in the lives of entrepreneurs, there's plenty for us to get done together.
