Full-Stack Web Developer (Rails + JS + HTML/CSS + Light Design) | Gotham Dream Cars | Remote | Part-Time+
So this is a bit of a different kind of gig/company. Not Silicon Valley. Not even really tech. But cool :)
GDC (<a href=") is an ultra-exotic car rental company.  I started it about 11 years ago and have built it organically to a multi-city company renting out some of the coolest cars on earth.
A few years ago I dove headfirst into the tech side of things, taught myself to code, brushed off the 'ol design skills, and built our entire tech stack myself - and it now runs the whole company. But I'm focused on other things these days and don't have the time to maintain / continue to develop the site, so it's time to bring someone on board to handle it.
It's not the most world-changing stuff -- essentially a CRUD app with a consumer-facing frontend and admin-facing backend for managing the fleet, booking reservations, doing light CRM, billing, logistics, etc. But it's incredibly satisfying to work on -- every feature directly helps the employees in the office work more efficiently, helps the cars get booked more often, and helps our customers stay happy. It's step-by-step replacing manual processes and has a huge impact on the company, employees and customers.
If you're looking for some satisfying part-time, remote Rails + Frontend work and are interested in directly improving an interesting business that deals with Ferraris and Lamborghinis, this might be ideal for you. There's zero overhead here -- if you have an idea for a feature, you can go ahead code it up and push it live that day.
You don't have to be a senior Rails or JavaScript expert - you just have to be better than I am ;) (I'm a solid intermediate.)  But please do have experience with Rails - I'd prefer to work with someone who can hit the ground running.
There's a long list of fun features on my to-do list, so the first few weeks/months would be more involved as you bang out updates and get things caught up, then it would transition to maintenance, new features, new ideas, etc. over time.  I expect needing ~30 hrs/week for the first few months and then scaling down to 10-20 hrs/week.
Note I'm pretty serious about "full stack" here -- I've been a one-man band the past few years and you're effectively going to replace me in day-to-day stuff, so while you don't need to be a pro graphic designer too, you should have some basic design skills since it's all you.  I'll still be here and can certainly help in this area, but I'm going to lean on you for a majority of the heavy lifting.
A bit about our stack and some of the tasks at hand:
* Rails (currently on 3.2, moving to 4.x)
* MongoDB (but that's gotta go, so we're moving to Postgres)
* Stylus for CSS (not wedded to it - open to SASS/LESS if it makes sense)
* Haml / Slim for HTML templates
* JavaScript (currently mess of jQuery - TBD which framework we'll move to)
* Git-based workflow
If this sounds interesting/fun and you like the idea of taking ownership over a live web app from top to bottom, take a look at the site, shoot me an email (contact info in HN profile) and we'll discuss.
