Innovative Software for Payment Solutions

We are a small but mighty team looking to get more mighty. We are looking for someone exceptional because we believe that putting together deliberately smaller teams of all-stars is the best way to build software.

We are essentially a startup. But in a good way. We don't have all the startup drama. Nor the long hours. Nor any outside investment. And we are profitable.

We are building interesting software in a space without a lot of interesting software: payment solutions.

We are doing greenfield development. Mostly in Rails. But we will leverage other technologies appropriately. For instance, we expect that our system can take advantage of specific features in languages like Erlang and Clojure.

Our challenge is the same as every development shop: build the best software in our space.

Our approach is to hire great developers and place them into an environment that is conducive to hacking and painting. To do this we offer all that you should expect: great salaries, benefits, and team members.

We are not looking for any rock stars. We want to hire super talented people who are more interested in the band's music than breaking furniture in hotel rooms.

We value aptitude over experience. We also value maintainable teams and codebases, feedback loops, and we prefer essence to ceremony.

And though some of our best developers work remotely, we are building the foundation of a Chicago-based team that will be highly collaborative. This is as much an opportunity to define the team as it is to be a part of it.

Hi, I’m Brian

I work at mirRoR, where we connect agile Rails developers and employers.

We started as Rails programmers ourselves (and are currently working on a few social, facebook, and iPhone apps). This background and network help us identify quality opportunities in the industry.

That’s especially important today. While many venture-backed web 2.0 startups are cutting costs amidst this economic climate, we are working with a number of companies that are self-sufficient, cash-positive, and well capitalized for the long-term.

I’d be eager to briefly discuss where you are in the process and see if there is a potential fit, either for the opportunities listed here, or those posted elsewhere.

Let’s chat!
