The opportunity timeline

• Overview

  ScaleForward is hiring a Ruby Developer in Yuma, AZ.

• Role description

  At ScaleForward, the Ruby Developer owns the problem end to end, from the first Strategic Planning prototype to the 3 a.m. pager that never rings. Sized right for 4 years of Attention to Detail, this AZ role pays $65,000 - $95,000 and opens a path you actually want to walk.

  Key Responsibilities

  • Sketch the Jest architecture, defend it in review, then build the thing
  • Decode the undocumented MongoDB service nobody at ScaleForward remembers writing
  • Champion engineering excellence and continuous learning within ScaleForward
  • Slice the deeply technical technology monolith into React services Yuma, AZ can deploy alone
  • Design, build, and maintain reliable backend services using Attention to Detail and MongoDB
  • Work closely with data teams to surface insights from production systems
  • Translate Jest metrics into the one chart ScaleForward leadership checks each morning

  What You'll Bring

  • The diplomacy to align stakeholders who don't agree yet
  • Demonstrated wins in technology work somewhere near Yuma, AZ
  • 3+ years building trust the slow, unglamorous way
  • Comfort with the full-time cadence of a Yuma-based operation
  • A point of view, held loosely and defended well
  • A collaborator who makes the mid-level review feel less like an exam

  ScaleForward builds the unglamorous technology plumbing that Yuma, AZ relies on, and it does so with flat-and-fast pride. Decisions at ScaleForward come with a name attached, because ownership without accountability is just noise.

  This Yuma, AZ role comes with $65,000 - $95,000, hybrid work, paid learning days, and a mentor focused on your Strategic Planning growth.
