Job description

We believe great engineers ship great software, so we are hiring a Ruby Developer who lives and breathes GraphQL. A mid-level Ruby Developer seat that takes 4 years of Rust seriously, pays $88,000 - $121,000, and hands over the technology reins.

Key Responsibilities

• Scale Investment Partners LLC's Cypress services from Burlington pilot to VT-wide rollout
• Decode the undocumented Kubernetes service nobody at Investment Partners LLC remembers writing
• Evaluate and recommend new tools, frameworks, and Project Management libraries
• Refactor the technology module Investment Partners LLC has been afraid to touch
• Develop and maintain RESTful APIs powering core Investment Partners LLC products
• Maintain and improve CI/CD infrastructure across VT engineering teams
• Chase down the Stress Management integration that silently drops Investment Partners LLC events at midnight

What You'll Bring

• Storytelling instincts that turn data into a decision
• A collaborator's reflex to share credit and absorb blame
• Fluency in GraphQL earned the hard way, not just from a tutorial
• Flexibility to adapt your approach as business needs evolve
• The reflex to surface risk before it surfaces itself
• A communication style that translates jargon back into plain English
• 3 years that taught you which corners can be cut
