Hire Ruby on Rails developers in United States

I'm an experienced senior level software developer with a decade of experience building full stack web applications. The primary tech stack that I've worked with for the vast majority of my career has been Ruby on Rails. Throughout my career, I've worked in various industries spanning from education to health tech, working on traditional monolithic architectures to working with larger scaled applications built on service oriented architectures. I'm comfortable working in both small and larger teams as I have experience in both.

I've been a denizen of the internet for almost as long as I remember. I fell in love with HTML from old msn groups that quickly grew into putting up small websites on Geocities. When I was trying to decide what I wanted to do after high school, I really wanted to study psychology but was worried about the cost of it so I took some programming classes to turn my hobby into a side gig, little did I know that it wasn't going to be a hustle for long. One of my classmates introduced me to DHH's 5 minute blog video and I was instantly hooked. I began following tutorials online and in books. In my spare time I maintain a small home lab to play with different tools and learn new skills.
