Intermediate and Junior Software Developers (Ruby on Rails)

We are seeking high-energy and talented Intermediate and Junior Software Engineers, with experience using Ruby on Rails, to join our team building a social networking tool to support the small business government contracting community.  This tool will better organize and target business opportunities and help reduce the chaos many stakeholders experience when they attend conferences or networking events looking to connect with teaming partners or clients within the government contracting industry.

The tool will allow for dynamic and interactive networking for several end user groups including:

• Government procurement representatives looking for small businesses to fulfill contracting opportunities
• Small businesses interested in finding potential clients and teaming partners
• Large businesses searching for small business partners to build strategic relationships

We built a pilot of this tool in 2011 on a stack of Ruby on Rails, Heroku, and github, and are planning to add some significant enhancements in 2012.

Responsibilities:

• Develop software within an agile scrum-based environment
• Work with a team that is distributed/dispersed across the country
• Work with the team to create innovative solutions for client priorities
