About the position

We are looking for engineers comfortable working with the full-stack. You will primarily work with Ruby, building out features using Ruby on Rails and Typescript with Vue.js. As our platform is growing rapidly, you will help us build our platform to handle payments on a global scale.

As an engineer you will work collaboratively with the team, to define features and architectures, and then implement them in code. You will also provide constructive feedback through code reviews, as well as architect discussions.

Our ideal candidate has experience working with large web applications. They will know how to build reliable, scalable, and performant web applications. Testing and code quality are also extremely important to us, so having a strong knowledge of testing and the different testing types is required.

Responsibilities

  • Support team members through code review and architecture discussions
  • Write tests that validate the stability and correctness of implementations
  • Handle refactorings with both bravery and care

Requirements

  • Experience with building performant and scalable APIs, including DB performance
  • Experience with integrating with third party APIs in a secure and fault tolerant manner
  • Strong understanding of OOP programming languages and patterns

Compensation

6 to 8 million JPY annually.

Includes (rough estimate of) profit share. Based on experience and skill level.

Hiring Process

  1. 1

    Initial Screening

    Your application will be reviewed by our engineers. Rather than just your work history, we’re looking for something that demonstrates a passion for programming. This could be a personal project or open source contributions for instance. We want to work with people who love their trade, and work to improve their skills.

  2. 2

    Two interviews

    We’ll ask you to present to us something that you’ve built and can speak passionately about. Our engineers will then ask you open ended questions about what you’ve built. We’ve found this approach allows you to highlight your strengths to us, and demonstrate how you’d fit into the team.

  3. 3

    Offer

    After you pass two rounds of interviews, we’ll typically make an offer.
