Cyrus Innovation

FULL TIME - New York - Boston

Do you love Ruby on Rails or Java but really consider yourself a Polyglot Programmer? Do you want to work on custom back end applications with other exceptional developers and continuously make yourself a better engineer? Do you want to have a real work-life balance and still be able to produce great work?

Cyrus Innovation is a profitable and growing Agile development consulting firm that was founded in 2003 and provides on-site XP teams to start-up and enterprise level organizations in Boston and New York City.

We are looking for honest and energized developers to join our exceptional team. We pair program, practice TDD, and have daily stand-ups on every project and are looking for people who love Agile as much as we do. We don’t believe in cubicles and think that an open office space that allows for constant communication is the best way to produce great work. Through our intense hiring process we bring on the best developers in town and aren’t afraid to fire people who can’t get the job done.

We are serious about our love for new technology, best practices, and constant improvement. If you have a true passion for coding both in and out of the office and believe that Agile is the best way to get things done, we would love to hear from you.

For more information about Cyrus, or to apply for a position please send a resume to Marc Rosenberg at mrosenberg@cyrusinnovation.com

LocalBonus (New York, NY) FULL TIME Rails Developer in NYC (or REMOTE)

Why us: - Product is something you'd use (we let consumers use their existing credit/debit cards as loyalty cards at local businesses) - Seed funding already closed (recently... so we have runway) - You'd be the third person on the team so there's plenty of equity to work with - We're currently in the Entrepreneur's Roundtable Accelerator program (http://eranyc.com) - CTO has 12 years software dev experience, 6 years managing tech teams. He's an awesome mentor (and generally awesome guy). Among other things, he managed the team that built Australia's largest Ruby on Rails application. - CEO is a Stanford grad with 6+ years direct experience in our industry - Ability to shape corporate culture. We tend to be disciplined and professional about the stuff that matters and very casual/flexible about the stuff that doesn't. - Our main stack is Rails 3.1, MySQL (moving to MongoDB soon), jQuery, and HAML. - Looking to build out our iOS and Android platform. If you have experience here, you'd be in charge of this.

Ideal candidate: - 2-3 years full time dev experience in Ruby (will consider light Ruby experience or more junior if you're a solid fit and eager to learn) - Smart / raw talent / logical thought process important - Entrepreneurial hustle - basically someone that wants to contribute a lot to LocalBonus and then be CTO/Founder of their own company after this.
