Full-stack Ruby Developer

SimplePay is an online payroll software for South Africa, Ireland, Singapore and Hong Kong. Our software lets thousands of small business owners (and their accountants) run their payrolls accurately, without headaches, so they can focus on the challenge of building their businesses. You can find out more about the team here and about the technical side of the business on the developer blog, here . We love solving problems our customers face, as well as those we face internally, with good code. That is why our founder, a developer himself, started the company and is still involved in improving the software every day. Do you recognise that not all pages need client-side rendering, but would enjoy digging into Vue.js for pages that will benefit from the increased interactivity? Do you laugh when people give up the power of PostgreSQL in favour of data stores that don't offer any benefits for their use case? If so, you may fit in well with our mindset. We use proven infrastructure and frameworks, so that we can focus on well-designed code. We have excellent test coverage and all PRs have to pass CI before merging. You’ll be part of a culture of constant feedback and improvement. If you like the thought of continual growth as a developer (non-technical skills included), you’ll be right at home. You are the owner of the features you implement and the bugs you fix, and you will be responsible for pulling people in at different stages of the development process, from working with a business analyst on improving the UI design to providing input into the training materials created for end-users. All your PRs will be reviewed and discussed. Collaboration is key for us.
