Job description

WHO WE ARE

Our goal is to save ten-million hard-working employees ten-billion dollars. We are a values driven, well-funded, and fast-growing Financial Technology and HR company. We want to empower small and midsize businesses with financial tools that make them the place where people want to work.

We’ve created a financial empowerment platform that helps small but mighty HR teams make a big impact on employee financial wellness. ZayZoon is quickly becoming the employee financial wellness super-app that employees can’t live without, and employers are clamoring to offer to help attract and retain talent.

We are growing fast and have been recognized for rapid growth in the 2023 Deloitte Technology Fast 500 and Canadian Technology Fast 50 program! You can read more about it here.

The Role

We are looking for a Senior Developer experienced with Ruby-on-Rails to help us solve tough problems and think up innovative new solutions, based on software development best practices and an urge to be the best you can be. You will work on customer- and admin-facing products, third-party integrations both canned and bespoke, and help architect the system toward greater flexibility, reliability, and scale.

YOUR RESPONSIBILITIES:

Creative problem solving for key development and engineering issues, including full understanding of the root cause with the ability to leverage data to back up assertions

Building, maintaining, and architecting core web and mobile applications

Integrating with and maintaining third party tools and services

Participating in our agile development process: sprint planning, story grooming and stand ups

Extensive collaboration with other departments, particularly Product, Customer Care, and Finance, on product issues and when implementing new features

Adherence to our SDLC and secure coding practises and environment

Collaboration with development pod and team via pull request reviews, mentorship, knowledge sharing, pairing on complex stories

Championing ZayZoon’s mission to provide responsible financial products to an underserved generation of employees

TO BE SUCCESSFUL IN THIS ROLE, YOU ARE LIKELY SOMEONE WHO HAS:

4+ years of hands-on Ruby on Rails experience with production applications

Experience solving issues around scale, concurrency, queuing, background processing, and efficient ingestion of third party data

Mastery of fundamentals. SOLID coding principles, domain-driven design, performant code and queries, unit and integration testing.

Ability to build quick when we need to experiment, build clean when MVP becomes core functionality

Strong SQL and data analysis skills and an eagerness to dig into data as part of problem solving.

Full stack mentality. Every dev owns their features in full, meaning all the way from back end to front end code, automated and real life testing, demos, and delivery

Experience with agile development, sprints and scrum.

All the usual tooling: Git, Github, Jira, editor of your choice. (Plus the ability to search for good animated gifs when merging pull requests)

Bonus points if you have:

Data experience with BI tools (Metabase, Looker), ETL

Competence with React or React Native

Experience or interest in DevOps, particularly around cloud services and AWS

Prior work with financial technology, accounting systems, or banking
