SUMMARY

Partner Engineering and Science, Inc. is seeking an experienced Ruby Software Developer to join our innovative IT department. This position is ideal for a talented developer who is passionate about designing, developing, and maintaining software applications that drive our business operations forward. As a Ruby Software Developer, you will work closely with the Director of Business Applications and other stakeholders to ensure the stability, scalability, and security of our platforms. You will have the opportunity to contribute to the evolution of our legacy systems while shaping new, cutting-edge solutions.

This is a unique software development position.  Some aspects of your work will be outside client facing while other aspects will be for our internal enterprise software – many users of your software will be your colleagues and co-workers.  Your technical expertise will be relied on daily, but you’ll also get to use that non-technical half of your brain to problem solve user workflows and business processes that rely on your code.  It’s a rare opportunity to observe and feel the immediate effects that your lines of code have on a fast-paced organization. This position is located in our Torrance, CA office and is not a remote option.

• Software Development: Design, develop, test, and deploy robust, scalable Ruby-based applications.

• Code Quality: Write clean, efficient, and maintainable code while adhering to best practices for development and security.


• Technical Guidance: Provide mentorship to junior developers and collaborate on defining engineering standards and processes.


• Feature Implementation: Translate business requirements into technical specifications and build new features for existing and new applications.


• Troubleshooting: Diagnose and resolve performance bottlenecks and bugs to ensure smooth operations.


• Documentation: Create and maintain documentation for system architecture, workflows, and processes.

TECHNICAL SKILLS

• Strong proficiency in Ruby and Ruby on Rails.


• Familiarity with front-end technologies (HTML, CSS, JavaScript) and their integration with back-end services.


• Experience working with relational databases (MySQL, PostgreSQL).


• Knowledge of Git version control and CI/CD processes.


• Familiarity with cloud services (AWS, Azure) is a plus.


• Exposure to Agile development methodologies.

QUALIFICATIONS

• 2+ years of hands-on experience in Ruby development.


• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Information Technology, or related field, or equivalent professional experience.


• Experience with testing frameworks and code quality tools (RSpec, RuboCop).


• Experience with containerization (Docker, Kubernetes) and microservices architecture.


• Understanding of DevOps practices and tools (Travis CI, GitLab CI).


• Knowledge of JavaScript frameworks (Vue) is a bonus.
