XING is the social network for business professionals with millions of members all over the world.
Help us shape the future - for a better working life!
Front-end-focused Rails Developer (m/f) Growth
The XING growth cluster builds the infrastructure that enables our
new users to sign up and helps members to quickly and easily benefit
from our social network, job market, events marketplace and other
products. The teams in the growth cluster are passionate about getting
new users up and running with our products and using data science-backed
intelligence to guide new users towards an ideal XING experience. The
growth cluster consists of around 30 people working in the Development,
Project Management, Product, UX, QA, business development, search engine
marketing and SEO teams. And we’re looking for you to help us!
A challenging task:
A highly responsible position, implementing sophisticated yet
pragmatic user-facing additions to the XING platform to help grow our
member base.
An awesome and professional cross-functional team in a mature and highly dynamic and agile development environment.
You’ll be working as a front-end-focused RoR engineer who’s not
afraid to touch the back end and other non-ruby technologies - whatever
gets the job done.
Don’t fall in love with your solution – always challenge the status
quo and be prepared to forge new paths, even if this means throwing away
yesterday's best idea to make room for tomorrow's.
A convincing background:
Strong front-end skills (HTML, CSS, JS, responsive/adaptive), Ruby,
RoR, Git. Database experience and other programming languages (Perl,
ObjectiveC, JavaScript, Elixir) are beneficial; good understanding of
underlying internet technologies.
You’re a team player: know your skills, love to share them, know
your boundaries and thrive to learn from and with your team. You have a
good sense of humour, solid English skills and are eager to work in a
multicultural environment.
We’re looking for a passionate developer with previous experience in
building web applications that serve the user and scale as well.
Maintaining the cutting edge of software development is what gets you out of bed every morning.
You like building products for users – be it for the end user or another internal team.
You're into agile methodologies and enjoy working in teams with a focus on sharing knowledge.
An inspiring environment: XING offers a dynamic
environment located in the centre of Hamburg. As well as flexible
working hours, you’ll have an opportunity to unleash your skills and
acquire new ones. We offer a wide range of training courses in addition
to German, English and Spanish lessons, regular team and offsite events,
and lots of fun. We also provide free drinks and organic fruit as well
as a Proficard public transport ticket, restaurant vouchers and travel
insurance. And let’s not forget the smartphone or iPad that you can use
privately. You’ll also be provided with a high-end Macbook Pro, and our
offices have table football tables. If you’re feeling really sporty, we
also have great gym deals, and various other benefits….
