Senior Rails Developer,
We are a small Center City Philadelphia consulting company focused on creating quality software using sustainable development practices. Our clients are businesses, non-profits, and academic institutions.

Are you frustrated with developing software "the wrong way"? Are you tired of being a big fish in a little pond?
Software development practices have come a long way. Stakeholders who are afraid to let you continuously reinvent your job are wasting their time and yours.
We are looking for talented application developers with Rails experience for full-time employment.
The candidates' primary responsibilities will be to assist in new development, maintenance, and deployment of various Ruby on Rails applications.
We always try to use the right tool or library for the right job, and we do lots of experimenting with new things.
We develop under Linux and OS X, deploy to Linux and use Git for version control.
We use most or all of the major Rails testing tools (Factory Girl, Minitest, Rspec, Cucumber, etc.)
For deployment: Capistrano, Chef
On the front-end: JQuery, Haml, and Sass
Other tools: Pivotal Tracker, GitHub, Semaphore, Code Climate, AirBrake, Pingdom
A desire to learn more about Ruby, Rails and good software development practices is mandatory.
Please do not respond to this if you are not in the Philadelphia area, or are otherwise unable to work with us in person at least some of the time.
