Mid-level Rails developer

We are seeking a mid-level back-end developer (Rails) who is looking for opportunities to lead a software team and work with a range of Rails apps and Shopify e-commerce builds. As part of Pixelcabin’s engineering team, you will build e-commerce solutions predominantly on the Shopify platform, by extending the native functionality using Rails for applications and augmenting complex front-end builds. Your role will also include managing a developer team through the various stages of a project, and receiving business problems from stakeholders and translating these into elegant, technical solutions. 
This is a role for someone who is excited to have ownership of projects, has experience with managing a team of developers, and is comfortable working in a TDD environment where code quality is prioritised over speed. You will also have an exceptional attention to detail, experience with building scalable applications, and excellent problem-solving skills. It is a bonus if you have worked remotely before, although this is not a requirement.

We offer:

  • The ability to work from anywhere in the world (see timezone details below)
  • Salary of £35k–£45k, depending on experience
  • Flexible workspace / equipment allowance
  • Professional development allowance
  • Excellent support for setting up an ideal remote working environment
  • An annual team retreat (different locations every year!)
  • A Pixelcabin laptop (our team usually uses Macbook Pros or Dell XPS 13s, but feel free to ask for what allows you to do your job best!)
  • 30 days holiday
  • Generous maternity / paternity package

In this role, you will:

  • Design, build, and maintain clean, reusable, and reliable Rails apps
  • Lead a team of developers, including running sprint planning meetings and leading code review processes
  • Deliver readable, well-documented, and efficient code
  • Develop code solutions that enable our clients to reach their long-term goals
  • Contribute to the evolution of our development workflows and tooling
  • Implement software best practices, such as refactoring

About you:
Proficiency (3 years industry minimum) with Ruby 2+, Rails 4+, RSpec, Sidekiq

  • Highly proficient with Git and GitHub
  • Experience developing scalable Rails apps that can easily handle spikes in traffic
  • Exceptional programming skills (you can produce high-quality code that is maintainable, efficient, reliable and secure)
  • Experience with managing a software team
  • Experience developing APIs as part of an application’s architecture
  • Agile, lean, or similar development methodologies/experience
  • Excellent problem-solving skills
  • Strong verbal and written communication in English
  • High level of attention to detail
  • Well-organized and self-motivated
It’s a bonus if you also have:

  • Experience with the Shopify platform
  • Made contributions to open-source projects
  • A bachelor’s degree in a STEM field (or equivalent education)
  • An understanding of Web Application Security (OWASP)
  • Worked remotely in the past
At Pixelcabin, our team is small, steadily growing and fully distributed. Because working remotely has been part of our DNA since day 1, we believe in offering a great remote working environment for everyone in our team. You will get support with setting up your work routine so that it’s enjoyable, even easy, to do your best work. By using excellent tooling (Slack, Notion, Invision, Pivotal Tracker, and any that you suggest) and encouraging you to create a unique setup that works for you (everyone is different!), we will help ensure that you can work efficiently, feel inspired, and collaborate smoothly with your team.
 
Every year, we organise a retreat/meetup in a sunny place so that we can bring everyone together, get away from our desks, and bridge the remote-working gap for a few days. On these meetups, we also explore ideas for the future direction of the company. (Last year, the team came together for a week in Hong Kong. Prior to that we went to San Francisco and Miami.) Since our clients are also remote, we occasionally travel to spend time embedded in their offices. This also provides time for us to come together and hang out as a team.
 
On a day-to-day basis, you will be communicating frequently with other team members through a range of channels (daily video calls, demoing / pairing via screen-share and Invision). Since we believe that good teamwork relies on open dialogue, you need to be someone who is comfortable with raising questions and issues. You also need to be self-motivated and experienced with taking tasks through to completion.
Timezone details
Given that we are a remote team distributed across different time zones, we have a flexible approach to work schedule. That said, during your first year of working with us, we would usually expect you to cross at least 5 hours of 8am–6pm (GMT+0) from Monday to Friday.
Diversity policy
Pixelcabin is committed to building a culturally diverse company, and we value a broad set of opinions in our team. As we grow, we are looking to build a team with a range of viewpoints at its core, and we encourage applications from female and minority candidates.
To apply: Please send all applications to jobs@pixelcabin.io, including your Github, LinkedIn, and any other relevant links. The email body should include cover letter content, with a CV as an attachment (only required if no LinkedIn). The subject of your email should be ‘2019 Mid-Level Rails Developer Application’. Application emails without this subject will be automatically screened-out and not read.

WANTED: Email Marketing Assistant with Superb Attention to Detail

Do you have unparalleled detail orientation? Do you spot the smallest of errors – and yet can also track and manage a multitude of weekly projects? Do you plan things down to the last detail, but have flexibility and a positive attitude if things don’t go exactly as planned?
Then you might be the superstar we’re looking for!
This is a critical role on our team that requires a unique type of person. We need to be able to trust your discerning, detailed eye, without having to hold your hand too much on a day-to-day basis once you’re trained.
Qualities include:
It cannot be stressed enough: You *must* have an incredible level of attention to detail for this role.
-Excellent, professional written and communication skills across the board (grammar matters!)
-Obsessed with process improvement. When mistakes happen, you say, “Aw, crap, how did that happen? Oops, looks like it was me (if it was). Here’s what we’ll do to get better next time.” And then change the process as needed and help the team follow through.
-Flexibility and adaptability. What we’re doing with email is always subject to change; we test, test, and test again, so you must be able to pivot, try new things, and not get stuck in routine—while maintaining your incredible attention to detail.
-A great attitude with a positive outlook
Pluses but not required (we will train the right person):
-Prior experience as a freelancer
-Experience with Maropost, Infusionsoft, Mail Chimp, or other email or content management system
-Experience as a copy editor, proofreader, or in QA
Responsibilities include:
-Formatting, testing, and scheduling all of our marketing emails in our email management software (Maropost)
-Cold proofreading of marketing emails, double-checking them against originals, and testing links
-Working with two freelance reviewers who are the second and third set of eyes on your work
 
Please note: There is NO copywriting involved in this role.
-Consistent follow-up on problems or questions with other team members on anything that seems incorrect in the emails
-Revamping our email process constantly to make it ever tighter
-Some light editing of our website and product content if that’s in your skill set
-Other projects and growth dependent on who YOU are (our current Email Marketing Assistant is moving within the company to bigger and better things, and she’s the second person to hold this role who’s done so)
WHY JOIN US?
You’ll work remotely with a lot of flexibility and independence. We are 100% remote, with team members based in LA, NY, the UK, South America, Eastern Europe, and throughout Asia. We don’t care where you work from as long as you deliver results.
Make an impact – help women level up in their relationships, self-esteem, and happiness.
Be part of a positive, upbeat team that deals with each other with respect and gratitude.
HOURS
This position is a long-term part-time freelance role at 25-30 hours per week. Our team is fully remote, but for this role most of the team you’ll be working with is in or near Eastern Time hours, so you’ll need to have consistent availability and overlap with an Eastern Time business day, especially between the hours of 10:30 AM – 3 PM.
You might also end up working the occasional few hours on the weekend. If you consistently deliver great work, there’s opportunity for more hours if desired.
To be considered, please write a cover letter to recruiting@howtogettheguy.com as to why you’d be a good fit in the body of your email. DO NOT send a resume or other attachments (your application will not be read). We prioritize culture fit, attention to detail, and quality writing when selecting candidates. Show us how detail oriented you are.
ABOUT US
Matthew Hussey / Get the Guy is a successful online dating and relationship advice company that helps women get the results they want in their love lives – but we don’t stop there. Nothing stays at the surface with us; we go deep and show our customers how to transform their confidence and self-esteem to live happier, more fulfilling lives overall.
You’ll be first-round screening with our does-it-all Operations & Editorial Strategist, Rachael Mare. Her favorite color is blue, so she’d love it if you put the word blue somewhere in your subject line when sending your letter.
Looking forward to meeting you!
