Location: Anywhere, USA

Apartment Therapy is looking for a web engineer to join our team. If you love working on a small team, are comfortable at any layer of the web app stack, and eager to serve a large and growing audience, we’d love to hear from you.

At Apartment Therapy we help people make their homes more beautiful, organized and healthy by connecting them to a wealth of resources, ideas and community online. With an audience quickly approaching 10 million unique monthly visitors and over 50 million page views per month, our bootstrapped business is growing rapidly. We need another pair of hands to continue improving our sites and tools for our readers, our writers and our advertisers.

We work (mostly) in ruby on the back-end. Tools in our box include: git, Ruby on Rails, Sinatra, Solr, Backbone.js, redis, MongoDB, varnish and Ubuntu. You should be familiar with these (or similar) technologies, and be quick and eager to learn (and to teach). Our ideal candidate has strong ruby chops, experience working with custom search tools like Solr and some experience building for high-traffic web sites.

Our development team is small (currently four) and we each play multiple roles. Our team has a great deal of influence over what we build and how we build it. Most of our team works remotely (US-based).  You may work from home or from our office in New York City (Soho), but should be comfortable working closely with a mostly-remote team.

To apply: Interested? Send a short email to scott@apartmenttherapy.com describing what you will bring to our team along with any relevant links (resume, github profile, linkedin profile, etc). US-based, US persons only, no recruiters or agencies.
