Semi Senior Ruby on Rails Developer

Florianópolis, SC

Work with NousLib — one of Europe's fastest-growing dating platforms

About The Opportunity

NousLib is not just another dating app. With over 2.5 million users, triple-digit growth, and a place in the Top 10 Lifestyle Apps in France, they're reshaping how open-minded people connect.

As part of their remote-first tech team via Workana Premium, you'll join as a Semi Senior Ruby on Rails Developer and lead feature work that touches both product and platform. The app is built on Rails with a sleek mobile webview — and it's scaling fast across Europe, Japan, and the UK.

What You'll Build

Your first months will focus on two high-impact projects:

  • A custom moderation & customer support platform to replace Zendesk — built in-house for sensitive content and fast response times
  • A poetic new user feature where people match based on stories and desires — before seeing each other's profiles

Both projects will stretch your backend muscles and offer plenty of room to improve architecture, performance, and team processes.

Day-to-Day Responsibilities

  • Build backend functionality using Ruby on Rails
  • Participate in API development, feature rollout, and system debugging
  • Collaborate with frontend and mobile devs (React, Vue, Swift, Kotlin)
  • Handle implementation with room to grow into more autonomy
  • Learn the platform architecture and contribute to tech decisions over time

Requirements

  • 2-3 years of Ruby on Rails development experience
  • Confident working with MySQL and backend logic
  • Some experience or exposure to React or Vue (just enough to communicate)
  • Comfortable working async, independently, and in English
  • Growth mindset — you're ready to take on more over time

Nice-to-Have

  • Redis, MongoDB, or mobile app collaboration
  • Prior experience in B2C platforms or privacy-heavy systems

Benefits

  • Fully remote, async culture — work autonomously with no micromanagement
  • Join a senior team with real product vision
  • Trip to Paris after 8 months to meet the team ✈️
  • Impact features seen by millions of users
