What we’re looking for:
- Experience engineering scalable, high-performing, and secure web applications using Ruby/Rails
- Experience working in an agile team format
- A mindset and work approach that aligns with our core values (https://skylight.digital/culture/)
- Able to travel from time to time to support on-site client meetings

- Profit-sharing and/or bonus opportunities
- Health insurance, including medical, dental, vision, and more
- 401k match at 10% of your salary
- Unlimited paid time-off policy
- $2,000 continuing education allowance, including conference events
- Time to focus on activities such as learning & development, open-source projects, and community outreach
