Description
Who We Are
We are a highly ambitious team—focused and truly collaborative. We empower people to take ownership through meaningful and impactful work. We exist to help people and the planet; it’s a big statement but one you’ll wear with pride.
Raylo is here to change how people and businesses get their tech for good. That means giving them access to the products they really want, but doing so in a responsible, sustainable way. We provide Seamless Circularity, where every device gets an extended life through our automatic, effortless cycle of refurb, reuse, and recycle.
Our secret sauce is leasing. By providing a subscription alternative, we're cracking open a staid old market and bringing real change to consumers, businesses, and the environment. Less waste, better value. We’re serious—Raylo is here to lead the change in consumption of consumer technology. Less waste, better value. We’re serious - we want to lead the change in consumption of consumer technology.
Life at Raylo
We are looking for a Mid-Level Backend Engineer to join our Engineering team in London (1 day in the office/ 4 days WFH). You’ll be working in a cross-functional team with smart people who are passionate about our mission and product. Our current team is built up of experienced and motivated engineers, and you will have the opportunity to be mentored, lead technical discussions, and contribute to a culture of excellence. At our core, we care deeply about delivering an exceptional user experience and creating great products that make a difference in people's lives.
Our engineers have end-to-end ownership of their code from development through to deployment and maintenance. We ship up to multiple times per day, supported by a healthy collection of units and automated end-to-end tests. You can expect to be challenged and rewarded for your hard work and innovation, both building on the work of others and leading on some features and projects. We believe that the little things matter, like keeping our libraries up-to-date and running the latest version of Rails. We take pride in the quality of our code and are committed to writing code that is maintainable, scalable, and efficient.
We are laser-focused on our mission and to achieve that we cannot build everything ourselves. We make use of best-in-class SaaS solutions, allowing our engineers to focus on what really counts. We believe that the best software is a combination of great code and great tools, and we strive to provide our engineers with the best tools available.
