    runagood® uses artificial intelligence and unique algorithms to solve problems for small businesses who until now have found traditional consultancy too expensive, opening up a huge and untapped market (5m+ businesses in UK alone). We have big plans and will move fast.

    Accountants and business advisors use our platform with their clients, focusing on raising performance and value. We will later aim for banks, showing the application for loan approval based not only on financial statements but over all company performance.

    We use Ruby on Rails for many parts of the platform, and are currently in the last push of testing and development before a soft launch/closed beta test at the end of the summer with a full commercial launch in the autumn.

    A problem solver who loves to solve complex technical issues
    Delivered mobile optimised experiences (not just responsive layouts) alongside those for Desktop users

    Managing the current software development process for runagood predominantly using Ruby on Rails
    Implementing and designing scalable and robust applications

    Working on taking the runagood web platform from beta testing to launch within the next two months
    Helping architect and build supporting runagood products and platforms
    Contributing to runagood business strategy as a key team member

    Negotiable salary, dependent on experience
    Bonus scheme for good performance

    A chance to learn about all aspects of business as a key team member and future shareholder
    See visible, tangible results of your hard work and influence what we do (we always listen to good ideas)
    Potential to put together your own development team as we grow
    An autonomous environment where you’re trusted to make good decisions and get on with it
    Nice offices based in Maida Vale (handy for the Bakerloo, Hammersmith & City and Overground) with coffee and snacks thrown in

    If you’re interested, send your CV along with a short covering letter explaining why you’d fit this opportunity.

    This opportunity requires a full-time commitment, starting ASAP.
