About The Position

The Senior Developer will design, build, and support proprietary software using a variety of tools and technologies including, but not limited to JavaScript/TypeScript, React, React Native, Ruby/Rails, SQL, and git/GitLab. Familiarity with AWS tools and services and Docker/Kubernetes is a plus, as is comfort using AI-assisted development tools and incorporating them into everyday workflows. This role contributes across the full software development lifecycle, including architecture, implementation, testing, enhancement, and production support.
