About Charlie
We’re Charlie and we exist to Make Work Better. We believe the best way to do this is by building a tool that democratises great HR for small businesses.
We’re looking for a Full Stack Rails Developer to join our growing software development team – and help us deliver a great product and user experience to our thousands of small business customers.
Come on and join us to make work better!
What is a "Full Stack Developer III"
We have a transparent career progression framework at Charlie. IC1 is a junior developer, IC4 is a senior developer, and IC levels 2 and 3 cover that middle area. For this role we’re interested in your specific Rails Frontend skills more than your seniority, so we’ve opted to offer interviews to people who fall within level 2 and level 3.
In This Role You Will
As a Full Stack Developer you’ll be responsible for:
- Building and improving Charlie, a modern Rails app that’s a joy to work on
- Using our design system to ship functional and beautiful features
- Being part of a cross-functional team with other developers and product managers
- Working with developers of all experience levels, with opportunities to learn and share learnings
Requirements
You must have:
- Professional experience with Ruby on Rails
- Experience building web apps “HTML over the wire”
- Knowledge of HTML, CSS and JavaScript
- Enthusiasm for collaborating with and helping others
- Self-awareness and humility – you know that honest feedback is how you grow, and you’re not afraid to ask for help.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
Let us know if you have: (all of these are desirable, but none are required)
- Experience working on SaaS products
- Built web apps with the help of a design system
- Worked with Stimulus and/or Turbo
- Knowledge of web accessibility standards
We will still consider applications even if you don't meet every single one of the above requirements, so don't be put off if you don't match them absolutely perfectly!
This is a permanent full-time role. We cannot offer visa sponsorship and you must be able to work in the UK.
