This opportunity is not being advertised by the company or other recruiters so please ensure you apply or message me if you're interested!

I have worked with this business since 2021 and can vouch for them being a strong team with a great leader. You will join a small team that currently consists of 2 other full time Ruby Engineers: one senior and one Head of Engineering. There are other technical individuals in the business, too.

You will work on a sophisticated product for the Education sector, specifically built to level the playing field and provide teachers with a fun & interactive tool for students. The product is incredibly effective for students who are falling behind or who struggle with traditional methods of learning.

They are currently in an explorative phase with AI seeing how it can be used to support their work and increase productivity but not overly relying on it, especially given the importance for safe and secure software in education. Someone who has some exposure to AI tooling, understanding of the trade offs/ current limitations and who has an open mind about its use cases would be perfect!

Hiring someone who understands how to write good code, understands the fundamentals/ reasons behind decisions, and who is interested in the company mission is the main thing here!

Next steps: The first stage of the process is a 20 minute call with me to discuss the details. I will also share the company name with you before the call so you can check out the business first.
