## About the role

Have you tried renewing a driver’s license online? The site looks stuck in 2000, it is confusing and slow. That is how most accounting and tax software still feels. The space is crowded with sales teams who rely on fear to close deals, and the result is bad experiences justified by “compliance.”

## What they're looking for

- Ship secure, fast, and scalable production code across the stack
- Collaborate directly with the CEO and designer to deliver complete product features - backend to frontend
- Work with our modern, opinionated stack: Ruby on Rails, React, Stimulus, Tailwind, Redis, and more
- Build and maintain banking and accounting integrations with rigorous data-quality and reliability standards
- Continuously improve testing, observability, security, and deployments on Render
- Work asynchronously with minimal meetings - we trust you to manage your time and ship great work
