Ruby on Rails Developer

We are looking for a Senior Backend Engineer with a strong background in building distributed, scalable, and high-performance backend systems. The ideal candidate has 6+ years of backend engineering experience, including 3+ years in microservices or distributed architecture, and deep expertise in Python, FastAPI, PostgreSQL, Redis, and async I/O patterns.

The candidate will own backend services end-to-end — from architecture and design to implementation, optimization, and production support — while working closely with cross-functional teams to deliver mission-critical systems.

Key Responsibilities

1. Backend Architecture & Development

• Architect, design, and implement backend services using Python (preferably FastAPI) with clean, maintainable, and scalable code.
• Develop microservice components, service communication layers, and distributed workflows.
• Build APIs and backend modules optimized for performance, fault tolerance, and low latency.

2. Distributed Systems & Scalability

• Design and maintain distributed systems capable of handling high throughput and large-scale operations.
• Implement inter-service communication patterns (REST, event-driven, message queues, pub/sub).
• Ensure system resiliency through redundancy, graceful degradation, and autoscaling strategies.

3. Asynchronous & Event-Driven Architecture

• Build async workflows, background tasks, and pipeline services leveraging asyncio or async frameworks.
• Develop event-driven components including producers, consumers, and event processors.
• Optimize I/O-heavy operations to maximize concurrency and throughput.

4. Data Storage, Pipelines & Caching

• Design relational schemas, write optimized SQL queries, and work with PostgreSQL performance tuning (indexes, partitions, query planning).
• Implement caching strategies, rate limiting, distributed locks, and session storage using Redis.
• Build data validation pipelines and compliance-driven data flows ensuring data correctness and auditability.

5. Security, Reliability & Observability

• Implement authentication, authorization, encryption, and secure API practices.
• Build monitoring, alerting, metrics, and tracing systems using modern observability tools.
• Diagnose production issues, identify bottlenecks, and drive long-term fixes and improvements.

6. Code Quality & Technical Leadership

• Conduct detailed code reviews and ensure engineering best practices across the team.
• Participate in technical roadmap planning, architectural discussions, and system design decisions.
• Mentor junior and mid-level engineers; drive a culture of technical excellence and ownership.

Required Qualifications

• 6+ years backend engineering experience.
• 3+ years building microservices or distributed systems.
• Strong expertise in Python and frameworks like FastAPI (or Flask/Django with async exposure).
• Deep understanding of async I/O, concurrency models, and asynchronous programming in Python.
• Strong experience with PostgreSQL (schema design, advanced queries, optimization).
• Hands-on experience with Redis for caching, queues, session management, and distributed patterns.
• Experience with event-driven architectures, message processing, or streaming systems.
• Solid understanding of system design, scalability principles, and API lifecycle management.
• Experience working with CI/CD pipelines, containerization (Docker), and cloud environments.

Roles and Responsibility:

• Experience with Ruby on Rails, along with other common libraries such as sidekiq, Webpacker, apartment, and ros-apartment.
• Good understanding of the syntax of Ruby
• Good experience with payment gateway integrations
• Basic knowledge of the AWS server
• Understand code versioning tools Git, and Bitbucket
• Basic understanding of front-end technologies, such as JavaScript, HTML4 & HTML5, CSS3, AJAX, jQuery
• Maintain efficient, reusable, and reliable Ruby code.
• Maintenance of the web backend of POS (Point of Sale) business applications
• Collaborate with multi-functional teams to define, design, and ship new features in a dynamic work environment.

• Coding and creating functional web applications and optimizing code for increasing response time and efficiency.
• Coordinating with front-end developers and providing server-side algorithms of user-facing web application elements.
• Analyzing the goals and requirements, handling bugs and errors and providing solutions for the same.
• Interacting with the database for storing data and ensuring that every user has access to what they search.

• Accomplishing the projects and goals within the deadline.
• Managing APIs that are executed across the devices.
• Participating in defining the architecture of the system.

Required skills

• Proven knowledge of front-end technologies, such as Angular, React, HTML, CSS, and JavaScript will be preferred.
• In-depth knowledge of PHP and related frameworks. Knowledge of Ruby, Python, NodeJs, and Java will be an added advantage.
• Good Communication, Analytical, Logical, and Leadership skills.
• Knowledge of front-end technologies such as Angular, React, HTML, CSS, and JavaScript will be preferred.
• Ability to manage a hosting environment along with database administration such as MySQL, Oracle.
• Excellent knowledge of APIs (REST, SOAP) and Web services.
• Capable of scaling applications to handle the load changes.
• Knowledge of version control, such as GIT.
• Knowledge of accessibility and security compliance.
