Senior Software Engineer - Ruby on Rails (f/m/d)

• Own a clear scope end-to-e nd: take initiative from idea to production largely independently, and lead within your team (T-shaped: you go deep on your slice, and pair with one other developer)
• Design, build, and run POCs quickly to de-risk decisions before committing to a full build
• Develop, optimize, and maintain our core backend applications and services
• Work on  high-level architecture to ensure scalability, performance, availability, and security
• Go deep on the In-Court/After-Court domain (the legal and procedural knowledge behind our

collection processes is a core part of the job, not a side detail)

• Collaborate closely with product to shape the roadmap and unlock further company growth
• Work AI-augmented: you already use (or are ready to adopt) tools like Claude Code as part of how you build, review, and ship
• Help evolve  and enhance our AI-based platform
• Stay current with industry trends and bring ideas back to the team

What we're looking for:

• 5+ years of professional software engineering experience, including 1+ year on medium-to-large

projects

• Strong backend experience in  Ruby (Ruby on Rails) : this is our core stack, and required for the

role

• Language-agnostic mindset: you pick the right tool for the job (hands-on experience with Go and/or Python is a big plus)
• Proven ability to work independently: scope, drive, and deliver a project with minimal hand-holding
• Experience with TDD and CI/CD
• A track record of writing clean, maintainable backend code and solid infrastructure
• Comfortable in an Agile environment ( Scrum, Kanban)
• Genuine interest in working with, and building on top of, AI-based technologies
• Solid English communication skills

Nice to have:

• Experience in the financial or accounting industry
• Frontend development experience, especially Vue.js and GraphQL  knowledge
