Rails Developer Job Opening Entry - Mid Level

We have one Ruby on Rails developer position on our team to fill as soon as possible. It’s a 3 month contract, with a view towards permanent employment.

The job will entail working with Ruby on Rails and RSS feeds. Experience with Apache, ASP/VB Script, ASP.Net / C#, Perl, Python and mobile development are a plus.

We’re more interested in finding the right personality fit, so aptitude and enthusiasm are more important than anything else. In fact, we’ll personally pay for you to learn Ruby on Rails and mentor / train the right candidate. Yeah, it’s a tight job market.

THE GIG

We’re a small team that’s been around since 2002 and we work primarily in the music and entertainment industry (Sony, Columbia, Epitaph, Warner Bros.). Fun stuff! Right now Glue – GlueNow.com is our primary focus as we try to integrate Glue into most of our client work. We have a bunch of fun projects in the pipeline and expect this to be a fun, interesting and rewarding position.

ABOUT GLUE

Glue: our simple web & mobile content publishing system has been up and running for about 2 years now and is a side-project we’ve been working on along side all our client work. There are about 2,000 people / companies / labels utilizing Glue’s features and we’re looking for you to help lead us to improving the service, adding new features and ultimately establishing paid accounts.

THE PEOPLE

You’ll be joining a small tight-knit team, consisting of:

• A Project Manager / Content Editor
• An Apprentice Rails Dev / Mobile Dev / CSS & HTML Specialist
• A Multi-Language Programmer (PHP, ASP, Ruby, Flash, JavaScript, HTML)
• A Graphic Artist

Given the size of our team and the type of work we do, you shouldn’t bother applying unless you’re hungry to learn new things, appreciate semantic standards compliant code and you’re very passionate about the work you do. We’re looking for folks who are disciplined, focused and leave their egos at the door. Attitude comes first!

THE LOCATION

We’re based in beautiful Seattle, Washington. You must be willing to live here or travel here during the week, at least until we get to know each other and are comfortable with alternative arrangements.

We often have in office ping-pong matches of epic proportions, we’ve been known to take off work and head to the mountains when the snow is good, and we like to hit up the foosball table from time to time.
