i2 FAST | UK | Ruby on Rails developer | Full-time | REMOTE | <a href="
i2 FAST is a new food testing laboratory (launched 2019) that serves the food and allied industries.
We are in the process of creating a modern LIMS (Laboratory Information Management System) to provide our clients with a platform to access and analyse their analytical results. The platforms also runs the internal operations for our laboratories.
We aim to be the UK's premier food testing lab and provide the most innovative web platform for our clients to use.
We're seeking to expand the development team and and want people to become core members of the team. Your role will be critical in helping drive the product forward.
We are looking for people who have had a few years of Rails experience - or experienced polygots who know some Ruby. From mid-level to senior developers.
Currently, the LIMS system runs the food laboratory at i2 FAST. Still, we need to develop it further, so it runs the whole i2 Analytical business, which is a much bigger sister company. Achieving this will require extensive development. We are only at the start of this journey.
The position will be primarily a remote role, but there will be occasions when the whole team gets together.
It will be quite a varied role as there will be many different types of projects to work on. Eventually, we will be creating mobile applications to support our customers out in the field (literally a field - they will record which soil samples they take). There will be opportunities to choose what kind of projects interest you. If you are interested in dealing with management and other laboratory staff to gather product requirements, then you could do that too.
Technologies we use:
Back-end: Ruby on Rails, Que Active Job, Heroku, Postgres, Dry-rb gems
Front-end: a mixure of Rails views (erb/haml) and React
