Job Description
Web Developer - Ruby on Rails
We are looking for an individual who has developed and deployed web-based applications and someone who has a passion for developing new experiences on the web. You do not need RoR experience but must have a desire to learn.

- Within the Software Engineering team, most of your work will use Ruby on Rails with a great deal of AJAX work.
- You will also help to make key changes to the sections of our site that are Java-based.
What you will be doing:
You will be responsible for implementing new features on our public site, as well as extending our internal web-based applications. Within this, you will need to:
- Discuss new features with designers and other business teams, giving input on what is technically feasible
- Implement new features and applications. While writing new code, you will be responsible for ensuring we have a solid foundation for our HTML and CSS code, as well our server-side logic
- Resolve bugs found in different areas of code
- Determine project schedules and your own milestones. You will be responsible for scoping your work and hitting the deadlines you set
- Help with maintenance on existing systems as necessary
- You will be expected to research new technologies and techniques to ensure we stay productive and are using the best practices available
- We are open to experimentation, and look for someone who enjoys working in an ever-changing environment
What you would need to qualify:
- Attention to detail: We strive to give our visitors an outstanding experience, which means making sure we do a great job on the details of what they use
- Excellent HTML and CSS knowledge: All of our development is web-based, and we are looking for someone who is strong in these building blocks of the web
- Strong experience with Ruby or another dynamic language: All of our new development is in Ruby, and the right candidate will understand at least one dynamic language well
- Strong experience with JavaScript: We make heavy use of JavaScript through AJAX-based applications and expect you to help push that work forward
- Experience with Java, especially servlets and JSPs: While all of our new work is in Ruby, we continue to enhance our existing applications written in Java
