Software Engineer, Full Stack Developer

Join to apply for the Staff Software Engineer role at Rugiet
.

Rugiet is a high‑growth, innovative telemedicine company pioneering patented solutions in the men's health space. We are dedicated to delivering accessible, effective, and patient‑centric healthcare. As we continue to expand our suite of products and market presence, we rely on data‑driven strategy and compelling messaging to connect patients with our life‑changing solutions.

Rugiet is looking for a Staff Software Engineer who combines deep technical expertise with strong product instincts and a bias for ownership. You’ll be a senior individual contributor driving architecture, reliability, and developer experience across our stack. You will partner with engineering, product, design, and operations to set technical direction, lead complex projects end‑to‑end, and raise the bar for code quality, observability, and automation.

You’ll also play a key role in evolving how we use AI and lightweight automation to reduce toil and ship high‑quality features faster.

• Establish and socialize a clear technical direction for our core Rails + React systems (architecture, data, and reliability).
• Reduce mean time to resolution (MTTR) and incident recurrence through improved observability and root‑cause fixes.
• Lead 2–3 high‑impact, cross‑functional projects from design through launch and iteration.
• Materially improve developer experience (DX) via tooling, CI/CD, and AI‑assisted workflows—measurably reducing cycle time and manual toil.
• Mentor engineers across the team; help level up design reviews, code quality, and system thinking.

• Own architecture and technical design for complex initiatives across the Rails + React stack, balancing pragmatism with long‑term maintainability.
• Break down ambiguous product and platform problems into clear technical plans, milestones, and trade‑offs.
• Evolve our system boundaries (services, modules, contracts) as the product and team scale.
• Define standards for code quality, testing, observability, and performance—and ensure they are applied consistently across teams.
• Make thoughtful build‑vs‑buy decisions and introduce new technologies where they create real leverage.

• Partner closely with Product, Design, Operations, and Clinical teams to turn business goals into resilient, scalable solutions.
• Lead end‑to‑end delivery for critical projects: discovery, design reviews, implementation, rollout, and post‑launch iteration.
• Balance short‑term feature delivery with longer‑term platform investments (e.g., refactors, migrations, performance and reliability work).
• Communicate clearly with technical and non‑technical stakeholders, including risks, trade‑offs, and timelines.

• Mentor senior and mid‑level engineers through design reviews, pairing, and thoughtful feedback.
• Model excellent engineering practices: clear RFCs, high‑quality PRs, testable designs, and crisp incident write‑ups.
• Help shape our engineering culture: pragmatic, kind, direct, and oriented around outcomes rather than tools.
• Contribute to hiring and onboarding by participating in interviews, improving our interview loops, and helping new teammates ramp quickly.

• Backend:
  Ruby on Rails, Sidekiq/background jobs, Postgre
  
  SQL.
• Frontend:
  React (and, where appropriate, Next.js) with modern component patterns and testing.
• Tooling & Platform:
  Git Hub, CI/CD, cloud infrastructure (AWS, Vercel), monitoring/observability tools.

• 10+ years of professional experience building and operating production web applications, including substantial time at a Senior/Lead level.
• Deep hands‑on experience with Ruby on Rails and React (or very similar frameworks), including APIs, background jobs, data modeling, and performance tuning.
• Strong system design and architecture skills: modularization, data modeling, scaling strategies, and trade‑off analysis.
• Proven track record leading complex, cross‑functional projects—from ambiguous requirements to successful production rollout.
• Experience owning production systems: incident response,…
