Aha! is the #1 tool for product managers to plan strategy and roadmaps. We serve more than a million users worldwide. We are looking for:
* Experienced full-stack Rails and security engineers to work on the Aha! product. Our application is built in Ruby on Rails, with React on the frontend for rich client-side experiences.
Aha! is profitable, you can work from anywhere in North America, South America or New Zealand, and we offer excellent benefits. We use our own product to manage our work (which is especially rewarding) and we deploy continuously.
Our entire team has always been 100% remote - in North American timezones so we can collaborate during the work day.
Hey there. I've applied to your open RoR dev position, like, a bunch of times- and have not once even heard back. No rejection, no update, no nothing. Is this offering real? I'd still like to throw my hat in the mix but am not sure what the next step is when there's no feedback loop?
It is real. I am the CTO and co-founder of Aha!, and also personally interview every engineer we hire.
A human reviews every job application we get, but unfortunately we can't respond to them all - we get thousands - but most of the applications are not related to the position requirements at all. I can tell you that if your resume matches what we are looking for then we typically schedule an interview within a few days. I see that you posted this same comment previously. Commenting was already locked by HN by the time I saw it then.
Why do I keep posting on HN? It works. The profile of engineers we have hired for our team, and the sorts of engineers who read HN has a great overlap. There are other things we look at too. Your Github profile is really important: people who contribute to open source have demonstrated their ability to work on a distributed remote team, but even more importantly it gives you a way to show that you can tackle interesting problems in interesting ways.
