Software Engineer - Integrations (Contract)

Mission

Write production-ready software designed for supporting business growth and bringing Atlas' delightful experiences to customers through teamwork and discipline.

Outcomes

• Contribute code to backend services and micro applications.
• Write high-quality code that is accompanied by robust and meaningful tests.
• Be proficient with profiling and solve performance bottlenecks.
• Create scalable and informative documentation to scale knowledge and communication.

Competencies

• Proficient in writing Ruby.
• Proficient in writing tests with RSpec.
• Experienced with Ruby on Rails framework.
• Proficient in writing SQL.
• Experienced with Postgres.
• Focus on delighting customers. Be maniac about customer experience. Does the CEO pay the bill? People Ops (HR)? No! The customers pay the bill. An excellent way to achieve this is to understand the problems our customers are facing intimately, treat them the way we would like to be treated, and make products we will actually use ourselves.
• Have abnormally high standards. Hold yourself and everyone to the highest standards. Care about every single detail. Every detail matters when you want to achieve greatness. Good standards are contagious. (Unfortunately, bad standards are too).
• Be extremely reliable. Always do what you say you will do. This is the best way to build up trust quickly. Be on time and present. Don’t give bullshit excuses. Don’t make the same mistake twice.
• Disagree and commit. Have conviction and fight for what you believe in. Respectfully challenge decisions. Do not compromise for the sake of social cohesion. Once a decision has been made, commit wholly to make it work.
• Make others successful. Put others ahead of yourself. We will get a lot more done if we don’t care who gets the credit. Genuinely want success for others and go out of your way to help them achieve it. Don’t wait for someone to ask for help or recognition. Giving is often better than receiving!

Responsibilities

• Write high-quality code and provide production-ready assurances through tests or QA.
• Be participative and collaborative through code reviews and pair programming.
