Job description

Some engineers tolerate complexity; the Ruby Developer we want at Fortive hunts it down and refactors it out of existence. Plainly put, Fortive wants 7 years of AWS, will pay $128,000 - $178,000, and expects you to own the result.

Key Responsibilities

• Ship the spirited-and-grounded Google Cloud features that move Fortive's technology roadmap forward
• Sketch the Public Speaking architecture, defend it in review, then build the thing
• Own the builder-led Spring Boot subsystem that the rest of Fortive quietly depends on
• Ship PostgreSQL fixes to Fortive customers in Boulder, CO the same day they report them
• Refine and maintain microservices that support Fortive customers in Boulder, CO
• Catch the ambitious PostgreSQL regression in staging before it ever reaches Boulder customers
• Keep Problem Solving schemas backward-compatible so Fortive never forces a breaking upgrade
• Partner with QA to define test coverage and catch regressions early

What You'll Bring

• Knowledge of CO-specific regulations relevant to technology work
• 7+ years putting AWS to work in a technology setting
• Demonstrated knack for making the calmly-fast-moving feel manageable
• Client-centric problem-solving that doesn't wait for permission
• Comfortable owning projects from concept through delivery
• Demonstrated ability to teach what you know to someone greener
• A portfolio or work samples that demonstrate your technology expertise

Fortive earns its keep by making technology predictable, a hardworking promise it has quietly kept across CO. We keep ego out of code review and let the PostgreSQL argument win on its merits.

You get $128,000 - $178,000, a growth runway, a mentor, full benefits, and a flexible Boulder, CO setup, no fine print, no catch.
