<span>Hi LRUG,</span><br><br><span>Time for another job post!</span><br><br><span>Geckoboard is an online status board for your business, making it easy to pull and visualise data from other hosted products (e.g. Google Analytics or Salesforce) or your own internal data. We're a funded startup that is experiencing high growth and has an impressive list of customers such Groupon, Pinterest, Khan Academy, Path and BarackObama.com.</span><br>
<br><span>We are currently a team of three (all of us are technical) so you would have a change to make your mark from the start. Our culture is very much "work in the way you're most effective" so we won't be interrupting you and are happy for you to work from home occasionally.</span><div>
<br><div><font color="#222222" face="arial, sans-serif">Right now we're looking for two Ruby Engineers to join our team.

<div><font color="#222222" face="arial, sans-serif"><br></font></div><div>### What we're currently working on</div><div><font color="#222222" face="arial, sans-serif"><br></font></div><div>* Switching to a service-oriented architecture internally. We're isolating common functionality within (private) gems (and using bundler to manage this). This approach is very open-source friendly as non-geckoboard specific gems can easily be open-sourced.</div>
<div>* Asynchronous API responses with eventmachine</div><div>* Switching to Backbone.js for the frontend</div><div>* Dabbling with server side javascript (inside V8)</div><div><br></div><div>### Technologies we use</div>
<div><br></div><div>* Ruby</div><div>* Sinatra </div><div>* EventMachine</div><div><div>* Backbone</div><div>* Memcache</div><div>* AWS</div><div>* Web Sockets</div><div>* And of course we call lots of APIs :)</div><div>
