[Chicago, IL or San Francisco, CA] Rails Engineer - Risk I/O

We are a venture-backed startup in Chicago, and we are looking for smart engineers to join our team. This is an early-stage opportunity with a healthy amount of equity and the chance to have a significant impact on technical process and company culture. We’re looking for well-rounded engineers who are comfortable working throughout our entire stack.

This position is an opportunity for an engineer to take ownership of significant technical areas in a small, growing company. In particular, this position offers the chance to tackle complex analytical problems across a large data set in a tech-centric company.

RESPONSIBILITIES:

1. In-browser charts and graphs 2. Hazard modeling 3. Building a large, noSQL environment 4. Working on application features guaranteed to see the light of production

QUALIFICATIONS:

1. Experience working in small teams with a great deal of autonomy 2. An understanding of the pace of a startup (and the excitement to jump into it) 3. Experience with some or all of our existing stack: Ruby on Rails, JQuery, MySQL, Mongo, Redis, Resque and git 4. Significant experience with dynamic languages, agile methodologies, predictive analytics, front-end web programming, test-driven development, and distributed workers 5. Experience with, or interest in building reliable applications on cloud and service-based architectures 6. You "get" UNIX. No n00bs here 7. Experience communicating with customers in the lifecycle of a technology product or project. This could be direct project ownership at your full-time job, but it could also be something more modest, such as an open-source library you released on Github and got five other people to use, or a small web application you built in a weekend hackathon. In fact if you have any open source or web apps, show em to us, they speak louder than resumes

COMPENSATION:

1. Cash compensation: Competitive with emerging technology companies 2. Benefits: Competitive with emerging technology companies. $2501 spend-how-you-like budget for initial IT hardware setup 3. Equity compensation: Competitive with emerging technology companies

All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex or national origin.

What kind of stuff are you guys writing in Haskell?

We're big on Yesod for web apps, so we end up using Haskell for both presentation and crunching the analytics that are shown to teachers and administrators. We have a bunch of internal Haskell tooling for our content pipeline. Upcoming ETL work is going to be Haskell-based as well. Still trying to figure out what to do with our monster Clojure codebase we have our API in, really tempted to port it, but there hasn't b…
