Ruby on Rails has long been a favorite for rapid web development, emphasizing developer happiness and convention over configuration. As a Software Engineer (Ruby), you will guide AI in generating elegant, maintainable, and test‑driven Ruby code, ensuring its proficiency in building robust web applications and APIs.

Key Responsibilities

• Create high-quality training data for Ruby on Rails applications, covering MVC architecture, Active Record, and RESTful APIs.
• Evaluate AI‑generated Ruby code for functional correctness, adherence to Ruby idioms, and Rails best practices.
• Assess AI's ability to implement robust testing frameworks (e.g., RSpec, Minitest) for unit, integration, and feature tests.
• Provide expert feedback on AI‑generated solutions for background jobs (e.g., Sidekiq), authentication (e.g., Devise), and authorization.
• Debug and optimize AI‑generated Ruby code, identifying performance bottlenecks, N+1 queries, and logical errors.
• Analyze AI's understanding of the Ruby ecosystem, including Gem management, metaprogramming, and object‑oriented design in Ruby.

Ideal Qualifications

• 5 years of professional experience as a Ruby on Rails Developer.
• Expert proficiency in Ruby, including advanced language features and object‑oriented principles.
• Strong experience with Ruby on Rails framework, covering all aspects from frontend (ERB, Haml, Slim) to backend.
