We’re hiring a Back-end Developer in London
We’re looking for a back-end developer to work primarily on Ruby on Rails and Elixir Phoenix apps who also has experience in AWS and a keen interest in devops using tools like Docker and Terraform. If you’re a developer with four or more years experience in any modern programming language and an interest in working with these technologies, we’d love to hear from you!
Salary: £45–70K
As a back-end developer at Made by Many you’ll have the opportunity to do the best work of your life as part of a team of talented developers, strategists, designers and product managers. You’ll be working to solve challenging and interesting problems and making software to power successful new products.
We believe that every member of the team has important experience that can help shape a product. Working at Made by Many you’ll have the opportunity to use your insight and perspective on technology to help set the strategy and direction of the products we work on.
Made by Many is an open, exciting and welcoming place to work. Here, you will find new colleagues who are deeply excited by the opportunity to create thoughtful digital products and services. We believe that our differences and unique perspectives are what help us produce innovative, awesome work. We are deeply committed to diversity in the workplace.
Who you are
- Ideally you have shipped production back-end code using Ruby or Elixir but we’d like to hear from applicants with similar experience of other modern programming languages.
- You have experience in AWS and a keen interest in devops using tools like Docker and Terraform.
- You have at least four years of experience working as a developer. You know how to architect software that can scale and grow, and you understand the tradeoffs involved in this design process.
- Your interest in development extends past coding; you have a passion for products and a perspective on user experience and product design.
What you’ll do
- Collaborate with developers, designers and strategists to turn ideas into working products.
- Develop products and services across web, mobile, and connected devices.
- Work using tests, pull requests, and continuous integration to ensure a high level of quality in your code and an excellent end product for consumers.
- Use Agile techniques to iteratively ship products in small, self-organised teams.
Where we’ve made a difference
- We conceived, designed and released Composed, a classical music service on iOS, Android, and desktop for Universal Music to help them leverage their vast library.
- We’ve helped evolve online education with TED-prize winner Sugata Mitra’s School in the Cloud and Microsoft’s Skype in the Classroom.
- We’ve worked with large media companies like BBC and ITV to help revolutionise their approach to content and revenue models.
- We created a connected ball to help kids learn the principles of programming through play (Hackaball), which we successfully funded via Kickstarter.
- We’re currently working with a number clients on challenging new propositions in fintech, health and travel.
