Ride With GPS | Portland, OR | Four separate roles: Backend software engineer, dev ops, mobile UI/UX focused engineer, front-end engineer | Full-time, ONSITE | https://ridewithgps.com We are a small, bootstrapped and profitable business focusing on providing software for cyclists and organizations serving cyclists. We are a team of 14 full-time and on-site employees, roughly split half and half between engineering+design and support. We have a comprehensive pair of mobile apps that integrate into our web based service, allowing users to record and navigate their bike rides, as well as a website that allows our users to create and discover new rides. We are looking to grow our development team. Currently that means a backend developer, a backend dev with extensive devops experience, a UX oriented mobile dev with both iOS and Android experience, and a front end engineer with React or other similar experience. For all roles, we prioritize skills over specific framework knowledge. For example, this means we understand a competent developer who is familiar with django or other MVC frameworks can become an effective rails developer in a short period of time. Our team is comprised of various types of cyclists, some more passionate than others, and all enjoying a mix of biking related activities. MTB / Adventure / Road / Race / Commute are all well represented, and we respect a wide variety of bicycling experience. We offer excellent work/life balance, competitive salaries, and love to support our employees with anything cycling related. We provide excellent fully covered health/vision/dental, a 10% matched 401k, and a bike budget to spend after your first 90 days. We are family friendly (a third of our team have kids) and offer paid maternity/paternity leave. Contact careers@ridewithgps.com for details. Please include a resume and a brief email based cover letter explaining your experience in the industry, as well as your personal experiences with cycling. Thanks!
