  • Industry: TravelTech / SaaS

  • Values: Efficiency, ownership, simplicity, customer-first

Role Summary

We're looking for a Mid or Senior Backend Developer experienced in Ruby on Rails to help us scale our backend platform. You'll play a key role as we begin the modularization of our monolithic system and tackle pressing performance and scalability challenges.

This role is central to our backend evolution — ideal for someone who wants to leave a technical mark while solving real-world scaling problems.

You'd Be a Great Fit If You Are...

  • Someone who enjoys deep backend challenges, not just building features but improving how things work behind the scenes.

  • Comfortable diving into a legacy monolith and helping extract, modularize, and optimize it.

  • Self-driven and able to balance engineering priorities with business needs.

  • A systems thinker: you consider concurrency, latency, scalability, and data integrity in your solutions.

  • Not just a coder — you value clean architecture, teamwork, and asking "why" before "how."

Key Responsibilities

  • Drive the modularization of the backend, breaking apart a growing monolith into more scalable components.

  • Investigate and fix performance bottlenecks across the stack.

  • Write clean, maintainable code in Ruby on Rails, with strong attention to quality and testing.

  • Design and implement new backend features in collaboration with Product and Engineering teams.

  • Work with technologies like GraphQL, Redis, PostgreSQL, and Sidekiq.

  • Participate in code reviews, technical discussions, and system design conversations.

  • Help shape technical standards and long-term architecture decisions.

Qualifications

  • 3+ years of experience building and maintaining backend systems with Ruby on Rails (Senior), or 2+ years for Mid-level candidates.

  • Solid knowledge of PostgreSQL, including database design and query optimization.

  • Experience with Sidekiq or similar background job processors.

  • Familiarity with GraphQL, Redis, and caching strategies.

  • Comfortable working in remote, asynchronous teams.

  • Strong reading and writing skills in English (team operates in English, but many teammates are Spanish-speaking).

Nice to Have:

  • Experience with real-time features and high-availability systems.

  • Background in system monitoring, observability, and debugging complex issues.

  • Previous experience refactoring or modularizing a monolithic application.

Key Skills and Abilities

Soft Skills

  • Clear, async-friendly communicator (Slack, GitHub, Notion).

  • Strong sense of ownership and accountability.

  • Pragmatic decision-making: you know when to dive deep and when to keep it simple.

  • Collaborative mindset — you value team outcomes over ego.

Hard Skills

  • Ruby / Ruby on Rails (advanced)

  • PostgreSQL (query tuning, migrations, schema design)

  • Sidekiq and Redis

  • GraphQL APIs (building and consuming)

  • Solid understanding of background jobs, API performance, and scalable architecture

Additional Information

  • Job Type: Full-time, remote

  • Work Hours:  9 to 6 CT but with strong flexibility

  • Compensation: Competitive (USD), based on experience k)

  • Location: Fully remote, async-first environment

  • Growth: Opportunity to work on high-impact projects with real technical ownership
