Engineering Lead (Ruby-on-Rails/React)

We're hiring a Ruby on Rails App Engineer to work with the Recast application engineering team for our marketing mix modeling platform.

What you might do in your first 6 months:

Build, test, troubleshoot, and integrate front-end elements into our application

Help us develop a more “self serve” Recast

Add self-serve reporting features so that our clients can dig in and build their own reports

Things you have experience in:

Full-Stack web-dev with Ruby on Rails experience (Django / Flask / MVC will also be considered), specific experience with Stimulus is nice to have but not required

Front-End experience with JS frameworks and libraries such as jQuery

You have decent design-sense and can take an app from idea to MVP quickly and independently

Working with javascript plotting libraries like D3, cube.js, or plotly

Working at a fast-paced SaaS startup

Things that should excite you that might scare off other folks:

Working directly with data scientists to productionize their code

Working with lots of complex data structures and pushing-the-limits visualizations

Building tools that interface with JAX & other ML-like libraries

Our technology stack today:

Ruby on Rails / Hotwire / Turbo Stimulus

Python & R based APIs

AWS Cloud Services, Step Functions & Lambdas

Heroku

Hiring Process:

Hiring Screen (30 minutes) - discuss Recast, your CV/experience and answering questions you have

Hiring Manager Interview (45 minutes) - deep dive on your experience with our VP, Engineering

Tech Interview (60 minutes) - Live coding exercise + “meet the team” time to discuss software architectural decision making, systems design, teamwork, startup speed

Final Interview (30 minutes) - Meet with Recast’s CEO to talk about Recast and your background/goals

What we offer you:

Work wherever you’re happiest. We're fully remote

Competitive remote salary along with early-stage equity

Highly skilled coworkers you can learn from and who are eager to learn from you

An async-first culture with a focus on documentation over standing meetings

Autonomy and support to do your best work in your own time

Your local holidays plus unlimited PTO (minimum 2 weeks mandatory PTO!)

As a Ruby on Rails Application Engineer you’ll be working with a team of other software engineers, data scientists, and statisticians to continue to advance and improve our product offering.

Note: Recast is committed to building a diverse team so if you are from an under-represented background in tech (e.g., women, non-white, etc.) please apply even if you don’t necessarily check all of the boxes here.

While Recast is officially based in the US, we're a fully remote team (one founder lives in Brooklyn, the other in Mexico City with team members in 6+ countries around the world). We can't sponsor visas at this time, however we are happy to have you join remotely from wherever you are.
