WodBoard: Senior Rails developer

Headquarters: London URL: https://www.wodboard.com We're looking for a senior rails developer to come work with us at WodBoard  WodBoard is gym management software that helps gym owners run their businesses and helps their customers, the gym members, live healthier lives.  The brand name won't make any sense unless you've walked into a functional fitness gym before so I'll move swiftly on... We're a bootstrapped company so there's no VCs to answer to.  That doesn't mean we're not ambitious though - there's a massive market we're going after and we want to create lasting change.  As a combination of these two things we've a heavy focus on getting stuff done. Our development ethos could be best described as "full DHH". Whilst there's some bits we don't 100% agree with we stick to the core Rails ethos and stack, focussing on what we can achieve with the technology, rather than the technology itself.  If you've enjoyed some of the blog posts on how Basecamp structure code, or enjoy the work of boringrails.com, you'd like working with us. We're a small (but mighty) tech team of 4 so you'll be jumping straight in and writing code for customers from day 1. There's also infrastructure/UI work/mobile app development work that happens and you can become involved in if you so wish.  The role has the opportunity to build into a CTO role for the right person. A little more about the role and us: It's really refreshing using technology to do something that helps people in a real world tangible way.  Changing lives and increasing health through technology is very motivating! We love simplicity.  We're fanatical about it.  This goes from our codebase, to our infrastructure, to how we operate as a company.  It can be harder work upfront but it sure makes life easier down the road. You'll need strong ownership skills.  As a small team we don't have project managers.  You're responsible for your tasks so you'll need to be goo
