Software Engineer, Java + Ruby
Engineering | Boston, MA, United States
Req ID: 728
The Position
Brightcove is looking for a top-notch developer who loves creating web applications from top to bottom, front to back, and who is comfortable building software in an Agile and iterative fashion. You will be building and owning systems with technologies such as Ruby on Rails, Java, and Javascript/Coffeescript. Rails experience is preferred, however, if you are a solid web application developer and would like to learn Ruby, you are encouraged to apply!
Brightcove is full of professionals who love their craft. We try new things that sometimes fail :-(. We use an agile process that ensures the features we build will delight our customers *and* that we're usually home in time for dinner. And we are always shipping code -- even several times a day.
The team you'll be joining is a small, self-organized Agile group focused on critical business systems that are both customer facing as well as used internally. You will interact directly with business users to learn their feedback. You welcome changing requirements, even late in development because you believe creating the best software is a competitive advantage.
ABOUT YOU
Our development process is the bumper to our bowling lane. It's lightweight and designed to provide you maximum flexibility to get things implemented while making sure it's done correctly. You'll review code and have your code reviewed. You'll look on with pride as your tests execute with each commit ensuring code correctness, application stability, performance and robustness. You'll interact with other teams as you work within the existing Brightcove infrastructure ensuring a smooth and seamless experience for our end users. Most importantly, you'll provide a fresh outlook on features and project direction and will actively contribute to all aspects of delivering a great product.
DO YOU
♥ code? Good! You'll write some every day. You've probably studied Computer Science to some end and have been programming professionally for a few years. You should be comfortable discussing software architecture for the dreamy features you'll propose and be able to implement them cleanly. You've got experience working on the full web application stack. You're not a sysadmin but you know more than enough to be dangerous. Your ability to contribute to a technical discussion mirrors your ability to listen and learn from your peers.
ETC.
We use some pretty cool stuff in a lot of different ways -- Rails, jQuery, CoffeeScript, Haml, Sass, Sinatra, REST, Java, Spring, Groovy, Hibernate, Html5, MongoDB, MySQL, etc. Dynamic languages like Ruby and powerful frameworks like Rails are the flavor of the month. There'll be some Java code flowing from your fingertips when the shoe fits. Things change, technologies come and go. You're passionate about staying up-to-date on the latest and greatest technologies and applying them appropriately to our projects. Don't worry, what you don't know you'll learn with a little help here and there.
