Job description

  • Building and deploying globally distributed systems with sharding, read/write splitting, and HA
  • Improving page load time by 30%
  • Designing and implementing a unified API
  • Building Greenhouse's mobile experiences

Our engineers can expect to start contributing to feature development within their first weeks using Ruby on Rails and Javascript. You’ll also influence how the team is structured, mentor and teach your fellow engineers, and learn alongside other senior engineers in an agile environment. At Greenhouse, we believe in concrete deliverables, feedback and iteration, collaboration and transparency, and recognition for your impact and contributions.

You should have:

  • Interest in growing yourself and your teammates
  • OO programming fundamentals
  • Solid Javascript fundamentals
  • Experience with Rails or another web-based MVC framework
  • Prior experience in developing a complex, multi-tenant web application
  • A deep understanding of modern web applications and experience with issues related to scale, security, availability, deployment, and operations
  • A good understanding of RESTful API design
