How we work
We are polyglots…
Although most of our software is written in Ruby, we don’t confine
ourselves to a single programming language. We believe in using the best
tool for the job while maintaining a slight bias toward the tools the
team knows the best. We’ve written infrastructure components in Python,
and we build client libraries for integrating with Braintree in Ruby,
Python, Node.js, PHP, Java, and .NET.

team knows the best. We’ve written infrastructure components in Python,
and we build client libraries for integrating with Braintree in Ruby,
Python, Node.js, PHP, Java, and .NET.
We pair…
We pair program to write all of our software. We work on Mac Pros with
two keyboards and dual 27″ cinema displays. We work in an open team
room; no cubicles or private offices. Communication is key to our
process, and we don’t want to hinder it with walls.
two keyboards and dual 27″ cinema displays. We work in an open team
room; no cubicles or private offices. Communication is key to our
process, and we don’t want to hinder it with walls.
We test…
Testing is at the forefront of our development philosophy. We never
need to check our code coverage to know that it’s at 100%: with
disciplined TDD, no line of code will be written without a test. We
don’t have a QA team. That might be terrifying when you consider the
type of software that we’re building, but we’re confident that our
automated testing is thorough and will catch any regression bugs. We use
continuous integration to test every version of every client library
against our gateway.

We are agile…
Agile development methodologies mean different things to different
people. For us, the most important part of Agile is doing what works
best for the team. We have a story card wall and release a few times a
week. We keep the team in sync with daily standups and have a
retrospective once a month to discuss things that are going well and
opportunities for improvements. We’re pragmatic, not dogmatic. Although
we have strong opinions, we’re never afraid to try to new things to see
if they work and reconsider our positions if the situation warrants it.

We spend half a day every week working on whatever we’re interested in,
regardless of whether it’s relevant to the business. Some examples of
the things people have chosen to work on include competing against each
other to build a mesh chat client in node.js, contributing to open
source projects, and discussing strategies for our Google AI challenge
submissions.

We think our new architecture is best suited for MongoDB and ZeroMQ, but we would like your input on that. If you don’t have experience with all those, you should be interested in learning about them.
We like to work with smart and creative people that have high standards for themselves. Our environment is small company, laid-back, with flexible work hours. You can work at home sometimes if you want. Full-time to us means 40 hours per week – we believe that downtime is essential to keeping your mind fresh.

expand your skills and your mind. As a company, we are growing quickly
and this position can evolve to wherever you want to take it. Besides a
vast amount of systems programming work, we also have opportunities in
