ABOUT THE ROLE
We are looking for a Ruby on Rails Developer to design, build, and maintain backend APIs for an existing or new backend service, working with a strong focus on API design patterns, performance, scalability, and security. You will write clean, well-tested Rails code against PostgreSQL databases, participate in code reviews and technical discussions, and collaborate with stakeholders to define and fulfill API requirements. The role is remote with a required 4-hour overlap with MDT for LatAm candidates.

- Ensure API performance, scalability, and security.
