We primarily use Ruby on Rails with a wide variety of front-end technologies, usually either in Javascript or via APIs that support our mobile apps. We do a lot of mobile work, as well, and we write a lot of tests. We're looking for folks who have experience and can show evidence of shipping and supporting software in a production environment, rather than showing a bunch of credentials or degrees. This is a full-stack position; additional experience with iOS or Android platforms would be a bonus, but definitely not required.
Our team is focused on outcomes, not hours; we offer flexible schedules and a community-centered atmosphere. Following public health guidelines, our team will be working primarily out of our downtown offices again starting March 1st (with built-in work-from-home days and remote guidelines based on role). Our team is fully vaccinated and boosted against Covid-19, and for everyone's health, it's a requirement to work at our company. We're looking for folks living in Madison, WI or willing to relocate. This is a full-time position (40 hours max).
Just to be clear: We don't care what you studied in college (or if you went at all!).

- Creating custom software for a variety of projects in an agile environment
