IT Developer

At business-monitor.ch we are hiring a developer to integrate our fully remote team. We are looking for an experienced developer to work on business-monitor.ch and other Rails-based data-intensive products using technologies such as Elasticsearch, Sidekiq, and Ruby-driven web data extraction.

YOUR MAIN MISSIONS :

To build our products we use Ruby on Rails — obviously! — along with other tools like:

• Elasticsearch, for our search engines;
• Sidekiq for running lots of background jobs to collect and process data;
• PostgreSQL, as our main data storage tech.
• We collect data by connecting to various types of APIs and by extracting publicly available information from the Web. All of this using Ruby.

About the job :

• Maintain our extensive codebase;
  • respond to bug reports;
  • develop new features and new products.
• You'd take part of this effort while:
  • being encouraged to contribute towards making our code better, not just shipping out features as fast as you can;
  • closely discussing and implementing solutions with the rest of the team.

• As a member of a small team, your work will be significant and important to better serve our clients.

CANDIDATE PROFILE :

• An experienced developer, with more than 3 years of professional work in the field;
• Familiar with Rails, Ruby and all the bits and pieces that the web is all about;
• Like to write simple code;
• Fluent in English;
• Work with a 4 hour overlap with business hours in Western European Time.
