We are for looking Rails Developers with all the typical skills (Ruby, SQL, Javascript, CSS, Linux, GIT and Test Driven Development). Rails experience is not essential if you have previous extensive experience in other web technologies, you learn fast and you've spent at least 1 year practicing core Ruby. Over the next year we are going to work on a variety of projects from internal reporting tools, to cutting edge user-facing car configurators. We live and breathe data so an interest in statistics, machine learning and data crunching would be beneficial. We obsess over user experience and product, so working closely with users in shaping our products should excite you. You should love delivering a great product to millions of people as much as you love technology, we expect you to be opinionated and actively shaping the culture and strategy of the product team. We also know there's more to life than work. We are an extremely sociable team, we love eating out, playing table tennis, free friday beers, we have a study group, a book club and have hack weeks. If you are a passionate software engineer, and think you have the skills, drive and talent to help us to build up our team, we'd really like you to come join the team About carwow carwow is a comparison site for brand new cars, we're a young start-up aiming to change the way new cars are bought. Instead of having to haggle with salespeople, we allow consumers to compare offers from quality dealers and buy cars at an upfront no-hassle price. We raised a £1.3M seed round in early 2014 from leading London investors, VCs who were early backers of LoveFilm, Betfair, Zoopla, Shazam and many more industry leading online businesses. We're still small though —which means you get to make a difference in a rapidly growing and already successful business. We get agile right We have been doing Agile by the book for several years, but most important of all we really focus on delivering value regularly. We use an hybrid of Kanban and XP, we pair communicate and pair often. Everything we work on is co-designed with developers, stakeholders and designers. We are aware of the tradeoffs we take and we invest in paying back our technical debt. We're a lean startup We like to deliver early and often. Good weeks see 2-3 daily deploys. That works because our team is small, focused, and autonomous on planning, architecture, and design. We try to use data and a scientific approach to decision whenever possible and we constantly test ways to improve our products. We love Ruby, Javascript, Git, TDD, and OSS And use a bunch of other technologies daily; Haml, Sass, Heroku, Javascript, AWS being the most usual suspects. We use the right tools for the job. We scale when scale is needed. We're keen to learn and we have regular study groups (at the moment we are studying Data Science on coursera). We are a technology company We believe technology is one of our greatest assets and differentiates us from other competitors. We always look for innovative way to use data and technology. But we need more, and that's where you come in: we believe it's part of our job to get better by hiring the best. We'll challenge you We need you to be an engineer and a leader. Keep your hands dirty, show initiative, motivate people, and get projects done. While keeping the big picture in mind. Sounds hard? We're constantly adding or rebuilding features in a site that sees monthly 20% increases in traffic. Oh, and we're going service oriented. We need top-notch performance. We have tricky geek problems around geo, machine learning, analytics, syncing, emails, monitoring, testing…
