1SaleADay is the place to shop for deep discounts every day. We curate products for our customers in a few different categories & have been steadily growing since inception.

-------------------------------------------------------

1SaleADay is looking for a ruby on rails developer to join the web development department. We are looking for a developer with significant know how, curiosity & experimental experience to work on our customer facing website & back office web applications. Your work will be used on multiple devices & third party platforms.

As a developer we believe your most important trait should be the ability to deal with ambiguity, followed by a militant discipline for thorough testing. It's also very important that you have great communication skills because you will be acting as your own product manager - requiring you to coordinate with other departments within the organization.

If you believe that:

  * PHP is a shallow and pendantic
  * Passable isn't the same as passing
  * That you can always be improving your body (of work)
  * Code clarity is more important than code brevity
and you have a proficiency in:

  * Ruby 1.8+
  * Rails 2.3+
  * Database architecture
  * SQL Queries
  * Gem architecture & development
  * GIT Version control
plus you have familiarity with:

  * MongoDB
  * Queue systems
  * Code refactoring & optimization
-------------------------------------------------------

You should reach out to us: dev@1saleaday.com!

If you have most or all of the above & experience in:

  * Deployment Architectures for Ruby on Rails
  * JavaScript
  * CSS 2 & 3
  * XHTML & HTML5
  * CSS Frameworks (LESS or SASS)
  * Using Templating Languages (HAML?)
  * Twitters Bootstrap Framework
-------------------------------------------------------

"PHP is a shallow and pendantic" Really? First of all, you're missing a noun. Second, you're not a PHP fan? Great, we get it, but maybe it wouldn't be the best thing ever to post that in a job post looking to attract talent. Or maybe you think it's easier to attract the right kind of talent? I love Rails, Python and nodejs as much as the next guy, but there's no such thing as the perfect tool for all the jobs.


It was a joke, we're all polyglot developers. No need to take such great offense. Also, thanks for the correction, changing it in future posts.


I second this. That little snarky comment was frankly a bright red flag - not least of which because of the typo.
