Bidsketch is a profitable bootstrapped SaaS (subscription web app) that customers use to create client proposals. I launched Bidsketch working nights and weekends, and eventually grew it to a small team of four. Now we're looking for someone with Rails experience to join the team.

Some of the benefits:

- Work remotely

- Flexible schedule

- No layers of management and no investors or shrinking runway to worry about

- Fun and friendly team that gets stuff done

We currently have a great team of four :) I'm the founder -- I mostly do marketing and some lightweight coding. Nicole does customer success (which means she helps customers). Eric and Paul do a lot of the heavy lifting and spend most their time writing code. Our team page can be found here: https://www.bidsketch.com/about
