Simple Thread stands at the intersection of software engineering and energy innovation, committed to delivering cutting-edge solutions that streamline workflows and enhance processes within the power and energy industries. As we continue to grow, we are looking for a forward-thinking Senior Rails Engineer to join our team. This role is pivotal in driving our growth, both in developing and maintaining robust web applications and contributing to the success of client projects that underpin our business.
Reporting to the Director of Engineering, the Senior Rails Engineer will play a key role in expanding Simple Thread’s service portfolio. This individual will bring deep expertise in building scalable, maintainable, and high-performance web applications using Rails. As a senior engineer, you will be responsible for leading the technical design and implementation of key projects, mentoring junior engineers, and collaborating with cross-functional teams to ensure the successful delivery of software solutions.
A Great Team – Our team is the best part of working here. We only hire people who are fantastic teammates – competent and smart, sure, but also humble, positive, and generous.
Great Clients – We work with clients for whom our projects make a huge impact. We prioritize clients who are pleasant and good to work with, people who share our values of transparency and empathy.
Work From Home – We are a distributed company. Everyone works from home.
Flexible Work Schedule – We require a certain amount of overlap with the rest of the team, but if you have a predictable schedule, we can probably support it, e.g., ending at 3:30 every day or being out every Friday morning.
Good Work-Life Balance (really) – We ask our team to work 40 hours a week. That’s all: a good, productive 40 hours. And then we try our best to leave you alone off the clock. If you need to work fewer than 40 hours, that might be possible too; let’s talk.
Competitive Compensation – We offer highly competitive salary and benefits, including generous time off, 401k, FSA, medical, and dental insurance.
