So this is a bit of a different kind of gig/company. Not Silicon Valley. Not even really tech. But cool :)

GDC (http://www.gothamdreamcars.com) is an ultra-exotic car rental company. I started it about 11 years ago and have built it organically to a multi-city company renting out some of the coolest cars on earth.

A few years ago I dove headfirst into the tech side of things, taught myself to code, and built our entire tech stack myself - and it now runs the whole company. But I'm focused on other things these days and don't have the time to maintain / continue to develop the site, so it's time to bring someone on board to handle it.

It's not the most world-changing stuff -- essentially a CRUD app with a consumer-facing front-end and admin-facing back-end for managing the fleet, booking reservations, doing light CRM, billing, logistics, etc. But it's incredibly satisfying to work on -- every feature directly helps the employees in the office work more efficiently, helps the cars get booked more often, and helps our customers stay happy. It's step-by-step replacing manual processes and has a huge impact on the company, employees and customers.

If you're looking for some satisfying part-time, remote Rails/Frontend work and are interested in directly improving an interesting business that deals with Ferraris and Lamborghinis, this might be ideal for you. There's zero overhead here -- if you have an idea for a feature, you can go ahead code it up and push it live that day.

You don't have to be a senior Rails or JavaScript expert - you just have to be better than I am ;) (I'm a solid intermediate.)

There's a long list of fun features on my to-do list, so the first few weeks/months would be more involved as you bang out updates and get things caught up, then it would transition to maintenance, new features, new ideas, etc. over time.

A bit about our stack and some of the tasks at hand:

* Rails (currently on 3.2, moving to 4.x)

* MongoDB (but that's gotta go, so we're moving to Postgres)

* Stylus for CSS

* Haml / Slim for HTML templates

* JavaScript (currently mess of jQuery - TBD which framework we'll move to)

* Git-based workflow

If this sounds interesting/fun, take a look at the site, shoot me an email (contact info in HN profile) and we'll discuss.
