Rootly is seeking a Senior Software Engineer to join their mission of revolutionizing incident management. As an early engineer, you'll have a ground floor opportunity to shape the company's international trajectory, working with a global clientbase that demands mission-critical engineering efforts around the clock.

The role combines technical excellence with product mindset, requiring someone who can balance being scrappy while operating at scale. You'll be empowered to identify opportunities for growth and take full ownership of initiatives. The position involves end-to-end feature development, infrastructure architecture, engineering standards improvement, and direct customer interaction.

Rootly's platform is trusted by industry leaders like NVIDIA, Figma, Canva, Tripadvisor, and Squarespace. Backed by Y Combinator and notable investors including CTOs from Dropbox and GitHub, the company maintains a culture of transparency with monthly financial reviews and weekly changelog updates.

The ideal candidate brings 3+ years of experience with Ruby/Rails, Javascript/Stimulus, and cloud services (AWS/GCP/Azure). Strong communication skills, design sensibility, and ability to thrive in fast-paced environments are essential. The tech stack includes Ruby on Rails, Turbo, Stimulus, ViewComponents, Postgres, Redis, Sidekiq, Heroku, AWS, and Terraform.

Benefits include comprehensive healthcare, generous vacation policy, latest MacBook Pro, wellness/office stipends, WeWork membership, team events, and professional development opportunities. As an early team member, you'll help shape a fast-growing venture-backed startup while working remotely from Europe.

Rootly values diversity and inclusion, fostering an environment where every team member can make meaningful impact. The company offers competitive compensation and the chance to work on challenging technical problems while building a category-defining product in the incident management space.
