Role Description Wir bauen die technologische Infrastruktur für CO₂-Prämien in der Elektromobilität und ermöglichen die digitale Abwicklung regulatorischer Prozesse und Finanzflüsse für B2C- und B2B-Kunden. Technologie ist bei uns zentral für Wachstum und Marktposition. Aktuell migrieren wir von Rails 6 auf Rails 8, modernisieren das Frontend (teilweise mit React/Vue) und betreiben unsere Infrastruktur auf Linode und Bare Metal mit PostgreSQL, Redis und Sidekiq. CI/CD läuft über GitHub Actions. Ein Observability-Stack fehlt noch und wird eine deiner ersten Aufgaben sein. Das Team besteht aus drei Entwicklern. Du wärst die zweite dedizierte Rails-Person mit starkem Einfluss auf Architektur und Infrastruktur. Wir suchen jemanden mit tiefer Rails-Expertise, insbesondere in Performance-Tuning und CI/CD, der technische Standards setzen möchte. - Du trägst die Rails-6→8-Migration aktiv mit und entwickelst die Plattform nach dem Cutover weiter. - Features verantwortest du end-to-end, vom Spec-Gespräch mit dem Product Owner bis zum Deployment auf Production. - Du baust den Observability-Stack mit auf, also Logging, Metriken, Tracing und Alerting. - CI/CD-Pipelines pflegst und erweiterst du, Deployment-Prozesse machst du robuster. - PostgreSQL und Sidekiq-Workloads hältst du performant, wenn Volumen und Komplexität wachsen. - Code Reviews, technische Standards und Engineering-Kultur prägst du aktiv mit. Qualifications - Mindestens 3 Jahre produktive Rails-Erfahrung, idealerweise inklusive einer Major-Version-Migration. - Solide DevOps-Praxis mit Docker, CI/CD und IaC-Verständnis, Bare-Metal-Erfahrung (systemd, Nginx, Ubuntu) ist ein Plus. - Du hast mit Sidekiq, Redis und PostgreSQL-Tuning unter realer Last gearbeitet. - Du arbeitest gerne in einem kleinen Team, in dem Entscheidungen schnell fallen und Verantwortung nicht delegierbar ist. Requirements - Frontend-Erfahrung mit React oder Vue (Hotwire/Turbo gerne, aber kein Muss). - Cloud-Erfahrung (AWS, GCP) für Architektur-Diskussionen. - Erfahrung mit regulierten Domänen wie Energie, Finanzen oder Mobilität. Benefits - Echter Gestaltungsspielraum, keine Architektur, die schon vor dir festgezurrt wurde. - Direkter Impact, was du baust, geht in Produktion, oft am selben Tag. - Arbeit an einem Produkt, das messbar zur Verkehrswende beiträgt. - Flexible Arbeitszeiten und 100% mobiles Arbeiten. - Kreatives und motivierendes Arbeitsumfeld. - Attraktives Gehalt und Bonusmodelle. - Fortbildungen und Karriereentwicklungsmöglichkeiten. - Regelmäßige Workations, um das Team live zu treffen.
