Rentify - London, UK, Software Engineer (ruby on rails)
Listen, I don't want to bore you. You should know a few things about us before we begin.
1. We're a small tight-knit team that wants to change how rentals are done. The rental industry is old, antiquated, and ready for a push. We think we have the right recipe, and so does Balderton Capital, who invested in us for our Series A.
2. We don't do deadlines, or assign your day to day work to you, or tell you how to get it done, or make your decisions. You're smart, professional. You already know how to build software so you don't need us to tell you. Of course, we don't mind helping if you get stuck.

3. We're all hungry for success.
Okay, now for the normal stuff:
## Responsibilities:
- Lead by example - by writing good code, talking about good code, and then drinking beers with the team about all the good code that was written
- Design and development of new product features and enhancements
- Communicate with non-engineers to define requirements and deliverables
- Know what technologies are out there in case you need to use them
- Periodically teach your co-workers all the great stuff you learned via tech talks, brown bags, blogs, or open source
## Requirements:
- You ideally have Ruby on Rails experience. (We'll still talk to you if you've done something with Django or node.js)
- You want to work in a startup (a.k.a. a place that works hard and plays hard)
- You feel comforted when you write a good unit test
- You must have a Bachelor's knowledge level of computer science via education or experience
- You know when to use Postgres/Mysql vs Mongodb/Redis
- You understand the full stack (servers, RoR, javascript/css/html)
- You have to be able to travel to central London every day
## Perks:
- Unlimited vacation
- Equity in Rentify
- Food and drinks available in the office 24/7
- Feel free to crush your co-workers on our N64 and pool table. We're probably going to build a nap room too because I need a snooze once in a while.
- We provide whatever tools you need to succeed like the latest hardware and educational material
- Be a part of a collaborative team that sits in an open environment (read: no politics) who previously worked at companies like Eventbrite, Google, and Apple
