Ruby on Rails Pro at Backstop Solutions Group

Located in Chicago, USA. Posted January 12, 2010

Backstop Solutions Group is a Chicago-based company that makes web-based software applications for hedge funds and the people who invest in them. We take an Agile approach to software development, embrace open-source solutions, and work with the latest technology whenever we can. You can check us out at http://www.backstopsolutions.com/company/jobs.shtml

We are looking for exceptional Ruby on Rails developers to help us build out our newest applications. Typical challenges in building our applications include: automagically processing complex data sets, presenting them to users in an intuitive format, and making them available via RESTful APIs.

Some of the technologies we use to get the job done:

* Ruby on Rails (naturally)

* JavaScript

* JQuery

* Cucumber

* Shoulda

* Git

* Passenger

* Hudson

We love talking to folks who have GitHub accounts, contribute to open source projects, and write their own blogs.

We strive to be a geek-friendly employer, featuring good coffee, fast machines (Mac or Linux workstations - but you could have Windows, if you *really* wanted it), and dorky t-shirts.

This is a full-time, on-site, position in Chicago and we are not offering relocation assistance or interviewing candidates who are not already here enjoying the winter.

When you get in touch with us, please highlight:

* JavaScript and UI programming chops

* Participation in open source programming projects

* Experience with TDD or BDD

To apply: email job+805@railsjobs.in

We look forward to hearing from you!
