Lead Software Engineer

Philippines

We’re looking for an experienced Lead Software Engineer to scale up our engineering team.

About The Team

Our current team consists of our engineering manager in our Melbourne office and engineers in Malaysia and Indonesia. Both of our co-founders are also software engineers.

The People App is a Ruby on Rails monolith running on a Postgres database. Using a simple architecture and solving problems in simple ways allows us to scale up while engineers can focus on work that delivers business value.

• 6 years+ of total working experience in software development
• Experience in leadership roles is preferable
• Experience with our technical stack: Ruby, Rails, Postgres
• Excellent spoken and written skills in English
• Someone that is curious, collaborative and ready to take ownership.

• Experience working with successful founders and a professional international team in a high-growth company.
• Open communication and healthy debates are part of our culture.
• Expect talented, motivated, and interesting co-workers.
