Highly recommend, and Mitchell thoughts on open source inspired me to start contributing to projects outside of my common experience.
Procore (NYSE: PCOR) builds the most widely used construction management platform in the world. Our software connects every stakeholder on a construction project — from owners to general contractors to specialty contractors — and we're used on projects worth hundreds of billions of dollars annually.
We're hiring across the engineering org in Austin, TX at all levels:
Our core platform is a large-scale Ruby on Rails monolith serving thousands of concurrent users on active construction projects. If you enjoy the challenge of performance, scalability, and developer experience at scale in Rails — this is the place. We also work extensively with React, TypeScript, and Node.js on the frontend and in supporting services.
Tech you'll work with: Ruby on Rails, React, TypeScript, Node.js, Kafka (streaming data infrastructure), and modern observability tooling.
Comp is competitive — IC principal roles range $198K–$273K base + equity. Engineering management roles start around $169K base + equity.
Also, tax incentives on new EVs push the used market lower, creating a false sense of depreciation.
I expect the market to reconcile the difference now that EVs subsidizes are ending.
Another possible alternative is that the consumer has to be educated that buying used EVs is not like buying a used cellphone, and that EV batteries do last 10+ years.
If you work on an older and large rails code base, you can easily find the programmers who came from more "formal" languages like java.
They build layers and layers of code to "isolate" rails and end up with big ball of mud. Once you do that you have to keep wrapping and adapting, and commanding, and querying and it takes a gang of more than 4 developers to maintain a feature set that could be done with 1 good rails dev.
Code is liability. Features are the asset. Well written rails has one of the best bang for the buck for lines of code per feature.
I think there is a market. I pay for mealime monthly, I don't even know how much it costs. The cost of an app to help the family choose a dinner menu instead of eating out is worth it. Not only for money savings, but for health as well.
One of the best features is to streamline the online ordering from the app.
I actually would love to hear more about the journey you briefly touched on the description.
Like how you learned to code, what tech stack you choose, what was hard, what resources helped you, etc And what you would do the same and different if you had to do it again.
Thank you for applying!
That should not happen, we usually get back to everyone either way. If you can send me your email or full name, me and the recruiter can search for your application on the HR database and correct the error going forward.
We are really looking for folks with strong Ruby/Rails experience. We have one of the largest rails codebase in the world.
We are also hiring on several other areas (Kafka, mobile, react, etc).
Feel free to DM me or ask questions here about my experience working here.
Procore is on a mission to revolutionize construction management.
