📋 Description

• At Scribd (pronounced “scribbed”), our mission is to spark human curiosity. • Join our team as we create a world of stories and knowledge, democratize the exchange of ideas and information, and empower collective expertise through our three products: Everand, Scribd, and Slideshare. • We support a culture where our employees can be real and be bold; where we debate and commit as we embrace plot twists; and where every employee is empowered to take action as we prioritize the customer. • When it comes to workplace structure, we believe in balancing individual flexibility and community connections. • It’s through our flexible work benefit, Scribd Flex, that employees – in partnership with their manager – can choose the daily work-style that best suits their individual needs. • A key tenet of Scribd Flex is our prioritization of intentional in-person moments to build collaboration, culture, and connection. • For this reason, occasional in-person attendance is required for all Scribd employees, regardless of their location. • We hire for “GRIT”. The textbook definition of GRIT is demonstrating the intersection of passion and perseverance towards long term goals. • At Scribd, we are inspired by the potential that this can unlock. • In a tactical sense, GRIT is also a handy acronym that outlines the standards we hold ourselves and each other to. • We’re looking for someone who showcases the ability to set and achieve Goals, achieve Results within their job responsibilities, contribute Innovative ideas and solutions, and positively influence the broader Team through collaboration and attitude.

🎯 Requirements

• 4+ years of professional software development experience. • Strong proficiency in Ruby on Rails. • Experience building and maintaining high-throughput backend services (500+ requests per second). • Deep understanding of database architecture and best practices. • Familiarity with other technologies in our stack, such as Airflow, Databricks, HTTP APIs, Go, AWS (S3, SQS, Datadog), MySQL, GitHub, and Terraform. • Working knowledge of JavaScript and React (nice to have).

Frequently asked questions

We use powerful scraping tech to scan the internet for thousands of remote jobs daily. It operates 24/7 and costs us to operate, so we charge for access to keep the site running.

Of course! You can cancel your subscription at any time with no hidden fees or penalties. Once canceled, you’ll still have access until the end of your current billing period.

Other job boards only have jobs from companies that pay to post. This means that you miss out on jobs from companies that don't want to pay. On the other hand, Remote Rocketship scrapes the internet for jobs and doesn't accept payments from companies. This means we have thousands more jobs!

New jobs are constantly being posted. We check each company website every day to ensure we have the most up-to-date job listings.

Yes! We’re always looking to expand our listings and appreciate any suggestions from our community. Just send an email to Lior@remoterocketship.com. I read every request.

Remote Rocketship is a solo project by me, Lior Neu-ner. I built this website for my wife when she was looking for a job! She was having a hard time finding remote jobs, so I decided to build her a tool that would search the internet for her.
