Bandzoogle - Montreal, QC or REMOTE
Rails Developer
At Bandzoogle, we build tools that help bands succeed online. Our app powers tens of thousands of artist websites, and helps them make a living by selling their music and growing their fan base. We've been “bootstrapped, profitable, and proud” since 2003 and are growing fast.
We’re looking for an experienced Rails developer to become a core member of our dev team, participate in key technical decisions. You’ll work on varied and challenging projects, from backend media encoding on EC2, to integrating external APIs, to adding new front-end features. Even better, our Rails 3 codebase is squeaky-clean and ready for you to jump in and start creating.
Requirements
* Sample code that we can take a look at (in any language).
* Solid Ruby on Rails experience.
* Ability to be productive in a distributed team environment. Our 12 member team is spread across Canada, UK and USA; we work where we love to be.
What we offer
Beside working on fun projects that empower musicians, Bandzoogle offers:
* A great salary plus generous performance bonuses.
* A fast paced startup atmosphere, with the stability of an established, profitable company.
* A family-friendly schedule — no overtime or weekends.
* Health insurance for US and Canadian employees.
* Reimbursement of home office expenses, computer, and use of co-working spaces.
* An education expense account - reimburse books, conferences, etc.
* Yearly meet-ups in fun locations (last one was in Montreal for the Jazz fest), family included!
