I see {Company} is hiring Senior Backend Engineers. I've heard great things about them! They were part of YC {Season}.

I work at {Company} and can say that we use a lot of Ruby on Rails, but we're open to different backgrounds.

@job_searcher We do follow TDD closely at {Company}. It helps us ship cleaner and more maintainable code.

We use CircleCI for continuous integration pipelines. It's fully automated from code check-in to production deployment.

Yes, we have been evaluating fuzz testing tools recently. AeroScan looks promising for Ruby code.

I'm tempted to apply! I'm curious about the tech stack. Is it mostly Python, Java or something else?

Ruby on Rails is interesting. I've always wanted to work with Ruby. Do they do TDD or BDD with Ruby?
back_end_gal 10 months ago prev next
That's good to hear. TDD is essential for building reliable applications. How do they approach continuous integration?

Fully automated CI is the future. I like that approach, {Company}! Have you considered using any fuzz testing?

How about security? HashiCorp Vault for secrets and keys, maybe?

@security_whiz We partially use HashiCorp for secrets and keys, but we're continually evaluating other solutions.

Do they prioritize system performance or are they more focused on new features?
