About the team

Day-to-day, they are responsible for taking high-fidelity prototypes and transforming them into fully functional features with a solid and secure GraphQL backend, modular front-end components, and automated tests. High-quality code and the ability to deliver milestones all the way to production are our key metrics for success. Our application is built on Ruby on Rails. We take full advantage of Postgres with a trigger-based time machine, SQL views, and a willingness to drop from ActiveRecord to raw SQL when it makes sense. AWS is our product’s home. We’re really enjoying React and Redux with ES6 and SCSS. Sidekiq, Redis, ElasticSearch and websockets definitely play their parts.
