Mutually Human - Grand Rapids, Michigan http://www.mutuallyhuman.com/ --------------------------------------- We are a small team passionate about making people's lives better through software. We're hiring for full time positions as software developers and software designers at our office in Grand Rapids. A little bit about us: - We write custom software of all shapes and sizes for clients all over the US. - Though everyone here is fluent in Ruby, we don't artificially limit ourselves. Recently, I've worked with Objective-C, Backbone.js (inside PhoneGap), Angular.js, QT and of course Ruby. - We practice a sustainable pace. We recognize that we each have lives, activities, and families outside of work. Late nights and > 40 hour weeks are rare by design. - We're agile, but not dogmatic about it. Our process evolves to suit our needs. - We offer competitive salaries, health/vision/dental insurance, quarterly profit sharing, retirement + match, weekly catered lunches, and a top-floor office with snacks, guitars, and your choice of standing or sitting desks. - We run a makerspace in our building (http://grmakers.com), which gives us access to lots of cool machines. A little bit about Grand Rapids: - 2.5 hours from Chicago and Detroit, less than an hour to the beach. - Lots of great beer. Founders Brewery (a mile from our office) has 3 beers in the Beer Advocate top 15. HopCat is a “World Class” bar on BA. Just look here: http://beeradvocate.com/beerfly/city/43 - If you’re renting anything larger than a breadbox in the Bay Area or NYC, you can afford a house here. I bought a nice house with a mortgage payment 30% lower than the rent of my 1 bedroom apartment in Mountain View. - A growing technology and startup community. A little bit about you: - You love making software, and you have a few years of experience doing it. - You learn new stuff quickly. You’ve used a lot of technologies, but you’re not afraid to use more. It would be nice if you use and love Ruby, but not required. - You believe software is written for humans, not computers. - You want to come into work every day and enjoy the people you work with. I'm a software craftsman on this awesome team. If you're interested, get in touch with me: ej@mutuallyhuman.com
