Senior Ruby on Rails Engineer
- Full-time
Company Description
Headquartered in midtown Manhattan, the Company is a rapidly growing seed funded startup that works hard, thinks, and operates in an agile fashion. The unique “ownership” culture is marked by grit, performance, productivity, and a can-do attitude. We have a lot of fun both in and out of the office, but know how to buckle down to produce meaningful results. The Company is a recruiting platform with an Uber business model, and a Tinder interface. Our sleek platform enables companies to quickly and easily leverage/crowdsource our expert network of agency recruiters to fill any open position using one platform, one contract, and one flat fee (which is less than 50% of the traditional retained search process). All candidates are personally vetted by expert agency recruiters, and companies typically find their finalist candidate in the first few days. It is a game changer and it is growing explosively!
