Hire principal / staff Ruby on Rails developers in United States

👋🏻 When I first started working with Ruby in 2010, it felt so refreshing. Ruby felt like a language made specifically for me. I didn't even need docs. I could try a method and probably be right. Needless to say, I fell in love with Ruby. I've worked with Ruby and Rails for 13 years now and I can't imagine working in a different language. I have a deep appreciation for Ruby and Rails. I have extensive experience working with ActiveRecord and ActiveModel, as well as experience doing front end work with React. I enjoy the building websites and trying to make the best code possible while also making the experience of using those applications feel great. I'm also a strong advocate of Test Driven Development and have worked with RSpec and MiniTest in the past. Both are great tools and I like how TDD can quickly get me into a flow state. Recently, I've been learning to use Hotwire and it feels like such a breath of fresh air for frontend development. It's nice to be able to focus on solving the customer problem instead of fighting the toolchain. I'm open to roles where I can continue to grow my skills while I help teams build sustainable software in a pragmatic way. I believe the process of building software should be as enjoyable as the process of using software.

I've been working with Ruby on Rails since 2005, when I used it as a key component in scaling a journalism company from 30 to over 100 employees, securing tens of thousands of global subscribers, and surpassing $15M in annual revenue. My specialization includes developing bespoke SaaS products and integrating CMS and CRM systems with visual user analytics and subscription entitlements. I've been an engineering manager and director and have mentored junior developers to help them become accomplished full-stack engineers. My skills span across the software stack, from server infrastructure to UX/UI design. I'm proficient in CI/CD tools and processes and place high value on unit and integration testing. When confronted with unfamiliar technology, I challenge myself to learn it. Having worked remotely since 2004, I'm adept at remote collaboration and know how to synchronize schedules for effective collaboration across time zones. I communicate effectively and think critically, thanks to an education in English literature and creative writing. I’ve contributed to open-source projects, including Rails and Sidekiq. I'm passionate about making a difference in mission-driven companies and organizations and enjoy solving intractable problems with a curious, relentless, and no-nonsense approach.
