*Ruby on Rails Developer, Old Street, London

May /June  2013, full time, permanent

Salary: from £45,000 to £50,000 per annum

At amee <https://www.amee.com/>, we are looking for an experienced
developer to fill a permanent position ideally starting end of May 2013.

You will be working as part of a 5 person scrum on a number of Ruby on
Rails and Java projects. We follow agile methodologies and expect you to be
working from our office in London’s East End with the rest of the team and
product owners. Your main focus will be on ameeProfile<https://www.amee.com/>,
our environmental business directory written in Ruby on Rails, and
interfacing via a RESTful API with a back end application written in
Java/Groovy.

We're looking for someone with strong Ruby on Rails experience and who is
confident to work within the existing BDD process using Cucumber. The ideal
candidate is happy to work across the full stack, including learning new
technologies if necessary. There's plenty of scope for involvement in the
direction of our technology, and if you're the expert in something, you'd
be expected to take the lead.

The RoR web stack includes:

   -

   Ruby 1.9.3
   -

   Rails 3.2
   -

   Rspec
   -

   Cucumber
   -

   Haml
   -

   Sass
   -

   JavaScript/CoffeeScript
   -

   Elasticsearch

Projects are currently deployed with Capistrano to an AWS instance and are
served by MySQL databases (Amazon RDS).  For the near future, we are
looking to migrate some of our applications to Heroku. Source control is
done using Git (GitHub).

About us

amee’s mission is to provide credible environmental data on every
organisation in the world, starting with 2.1 million in the UK. We believe
that providing free access to this information will enable businesses,
governments and consumers to make better decisions about the use of our
planet’s resources.

We have created a unique and open network where every organisation can
update, compare and share environmental data for free. Our big data
analytics enables large businesses to quickly and effectively assess their
supply chains so they can reduce risk and increase efficiency. Small
businesses can use amee’s quick and credible online tools to report
sustainability and promote themselves to leading organisations seeking
sustainable suppliers.

 We are a team of software, data and sustainability professionals
passionate about helping our clients harness the competitive advantages
that can be achieved through better supply chain management and more
efficient use of natural resources.
