Software Engineer, Ruby, Ruby on Rails

This is a fully remote position, open to applicants in United States.

📋 Description

• Become a member of a dedicated team focused on the most critical processes: deposits, withdrawals, partner integrations, and reconciliation.

• Familiarize yourself with the RAMP codebase, grasp the essential workflows, and implement your first significant fix within the initial 30 days.

• Take ownership of specific features or workflows from start to finish by the third month, with assistance from the team as needed.

• Independently explore and resolve reliability challenges related to deposits, withdrawals, and partner callbacks by the sixth month.

• Decrease recurring problems such as stalled transactions, failed callbacks, ambiguous states, and manual escalations.

• Enhance test coverage across vital workflows and ensure that every area you engage with is improved from its previous state.

• Introduce better observability where it's currently lacking: enhanced logging, alerts, and debugging tools.

• Engage in code reviews, share your insights, and provide support to engineers in your vicinity.

• Expand your knowledge of transaction-heavy systems, including idempotency, retries, state machines, and reconciliation.

⛳️ Requirements

• 3 to 5 years of experience with Rails backend in production settings.

• You produce clean code, approach debugging patiently, and are mindful of the impact your work has on real users.

• Proficient in APIs, background jobs, database design, testing, and debugging.

• Methodical in debugging: you trace workflows, analyze logs, and identify the true root causes.

• You enhance code gradually rather than resorting to complete rewrites.

• Bonus: Experience in fintech, payments, crypto, or on-ramp/off-ramp products.

• Nice to haves: Knowledge of transaction concepts such as idempotency, retries, reconciliation, and state machines.

• Experience in a remote startup environment.
