      The Role

      We are looking for an experienced Senior Ruby on Rails Software Engineer to join our SalesMaster development team and contribute to our industry leading SalesMaster SaaS platform. You will work closely with other Software Engineers, Product Architects and Product Owners as part of a collaborative team to drive our platforms forward, exploring new technologies and approaches to existing challenges.

       

      We desire engineers who take ownership of entire problem spaces and continually seek to push the product forwards, aligned to our strategic product goals and who are enthusiastic about building web applications.

Good listening skills and time management are essential, as is performance with consistent reliability, excellent attention to detail and high levels of accuracy. Working in technology in a changing industry means an ability to learn quickly and maintain up-to-date knowledge is critical.

      • Be accountable for the solutions you implement
      • Manage development tasks from initial assignment through to release
      • Assist with the grooming of the backlog and the continual refinement of issues

       

      Support

      As a member of the Development Team this role will provide ongoing support to both the developers and the wider company.

       

      • Build and maintain a personal knowledge base of the system’s functionality, data sources, data structures
      • Act as a technical expert to support colleagues
      • Answer technical queries posed by our other teams
      • Provide day-to-day support to the Development Team to provide a secondary opinion and to help resolve development blocks
      • Identify enhancement opportunities in the system; whether as a result of technical debt, poor data quality, a poor or inconsistent user experience or through advancements in technology

       

      Platform
