You’ll just need to be happy to cross-over to Ruby if you join us – and we will support you with that
Strong desire to work collaboratively with business teams. We do not divide ‘business’ and ‘tech’ teams, we see both as one team as we are all working towards one shared goal

Proactive in suggesting new tools, processes and technologies – anything which will help us continually improve!
The ability to communicate technical concepts to non technical members of the team
Ability to own small sub projects from ideation to delivery into our customers hands.
