    I am Ember.js & Ruby on Rails Developer. One of the most important principle for me is KISS Principle. (The KISS principle states that most systems work best if they are kept simple rather than made complicated; therefore simplicity should be a key goal in design and unnecessary complexity should be avoided - Wikipedia) I am focusing on patterns and best possible solutions. I am punctual and always doing a professional job. While remotely working, professionalism (punctuality, reliability, and commitment) is needed for good communication and the best results. In my opinion, every good cooperation is when two parties are satisfied.

    I'm mostly focused on efficiently making small web applications for personal, rapid prototyping, internal-use only, MVP or proof of concept purposes. Some of my past apps have been converting "spreadsheet apps" into web apps, and web apps that import/export spreadsheets. I build my apps with a strong emphasis on function over form, as I'm more of a backend developer. This means that the apps have a simple appearance, but they get done quickly enough. Some of the features I've implemented for my own and client's apps have been: - Play different sounds depending on response from server - Import data from Zoho Docs (via API) - Import data from Google Docs - Import data from an Excel file - File downloads (for the user or for data import to server) - Geo-caching via Ruby Geocoder gem and Geocod.io, find the nearest address in the database to a user - Background Job Scheduling. Useful for complex calculations or things that can wait, so the user doesn't have to. - Send emails via MailGun - Created a Ruby Gem - Data import automation via Zapier - Data searching/filtering/sorting via AJAX (no page reload) - Search, Sort and Paginate via Ransack and Kaminari gems - Automated testing and specs with Rspec and Capybara. Background: I learned Java and C++ while getting my associate's degree. I then learned Python through Udacity's online courses, and used that for a couple years while researching algorithms, data structures and the hard problems in computer science. In the last couple years, I've been putting my programming skills to work towards becoming a full stack web developer. While I'm familiar with front-end work (CSS/HTML/JavaScript) and use them often, my previous programming experience makes me stronger toward back-end work.

    I am a senior Ruby on Rails developer. I've been working with Rails for 8 years. I also bring several years experience building data warehouses and ETL processes so I also bring that data storage/processing/retrieval performance optimization perspective when building web applications. I'm comfortable working on the front end. I can work with traditional monolith Rails projects, or build UIs using React or Vue. I also have some devops skills and can get you set up with cloud hosting via Heroku, DigitialOcean or AWS (ECS, EC2 auto-scaling groups) and can get your application running on docker for easy developer on-boarding or deployment.

I enjoy working on challenging projects, and have experience in the following areas: - Testing (RSpec, Capybara, Cucumber, MiniTest, Teaspoon/Mocha) - Guard - ActiveRecord (prefer working with Arel, but I also have a lot of experience with SQL) - Devise, CanCan, Pundit - RailsAdmin, ActiveAdmin - Front end (many years experience working with JavaScript) - Heroku - DevOps (Vagrant, Puppet) - Linux - Deployment (Capistrano) Due to the many years experience I have with a large number of different technologies however, I can very quickly pick up new technologies.

English is my first language, and you can expect my communication to be prompt, polite and friendly. I will however not hesitate to speak out if I feel something is being done incorrectly, or can be improved upon. So if you have a project where you feel I can help out, please don't hesitate to get in touch!

    I have been developing commercial Ruby on Rails projects since 2017. I have started my career in graphic design and publishing where I have developed an eye for design and clean solutions. That experience helps me immensely in web development, to better understand what my customers are looking for. When writing code I adhere to two very basic rules: I always use git and I always write tests. This means that at the end of the day my projects run like clockwork. I always listen to my clients before making decisions and value their time by being upfront about my skills and competencies.

    I was with my most recent client for 3 years. Some of my accomplishments from that time: * Wrote an app that sends PDF letters via fax, email, or US Mail. All 3 avenues depended on SaaS providers. On business days, my app was sending 3,000 letters a day. * Wrote 85% of an app 40,000 lines of code large. The app was a sophisticated data entry app, where data was taken from scanned pieces of physical mail. Over 200,000 such pieces of mail were imported over the course of a year. * Used the Websocket protocol to provide real time feedback on bulk PDF letter generation. The PDFs were generated using Word templates and an internal database. About 2,000 such PDF letters were generated daily. * Wrote an app to monitor about 40 cron-managed tasks. On job failure, an alert was sent to Microsoft Teams.

How to Hire Top Ruby on Rails Developers

How to hire Ruby on Rails developers

Looking to build a website? Got a need for development speed? A Ruby on Rails developer can help you rapidly prototype performant web applications built for scale. 

So how do you find a Ruby on Rails developer? What follows are some tips on how you can find top Ruby on Rails developers on Upwork. 

How to shortlist Ruby on Rails professionals

As you’re browsing available Ruby on Rails consultants, it can be helpful to develop a shortlist of the freelancers you may want to interview. You can screen profiles on criteria such as:

  • Technology fit. You want a Ruby on Rails developer who understands the technologies behind your website.
  • Developer workflow. Familiarity with the project management tools, version control systems, test suites, and other tools used by your development team is a plus. 
  • Feedback. Check reviews from past clients for glowing testimonials or red flags that can tell you what it’s like to work with a particular Ruby on Rails developer.

How to write an effective Ruby on Rails job post

Your project description should give the developer a basic idea of what’s being built, and then define the deliverables that you expect. For instance, do you want the developer to hand you the code and you’ll upload it to your production server? Or do you want the developer to deploy the code for you? You might also want a maintenance contract for future bugs and improvements. The developer needs to know the time that will need to be spent on the project to give you a good estimate.

Below is a sample of how a project description may look. Keep in mind that many people use the term “job description” but a full job description is only needed for employees. When engaging a freelancer as an independent contractor, you typically just need a statement of work, job post, or any other document that describes the work to be done.

Sample project description

Title: Ruby on Rails developer needed for new ecommerce site

Description: We need an experienced Rails developer to help us build a new ecommerce site. We need a fully developed web application with custom reports defined in the attached document.

The right developer will provide us with the full back-end and front-end code, and we will need you to deploy it to our production server. We will also need future improvements and enhancements with a maintenance contract after the website is fully developed and deployed. We’ve attached business requirements for your review.

The estimated duration of this project is three months. We need the completed app by XYZ date.

It’s likely that most developers will have questions and want to discuss the project further, but this gives every developer a basic idea of what you’re looking for. A good project description will help the developer give you a more accurate estimate and delivery date, so it’s one of the most important parts of finding the right developer and defining your project timeline.

RUBY ON RAILS DEVELOPERS FAQ

What is Ruby on Rails?

Ruby on Rails (commonly referred to simply as Rails) is an MVC (model-view-controller) framework that places programmer productivity front and center. An extensive library of “gems” allows a developer to quickly whip up a website with the latest best practices and standards.

Here’s a quick overview of the skills you should look for in Ruby on Rails consultants:

  • Ruby programming language
  • Web fundamentals such as HTML, CSS, and JavaScript
  • Front-end and back-end web development concepts
  • Familiarity with the Ruby on Rails test ecosystem (test-unit, RSpec, Minitest, etc.)
  • MVC programming paradigm

Ruby on Rails consultants help businesses quickly build, test, and deploy websites and applications. 

Why hire Ruby on Rails developers?

The trick to finding top Ruby on Rails developers is to identify your needs. Are you building a web app from scratch entirely with Rails? Or do you require experience with another framework such as React to serve as the front end to your Rails back end? The cost of your Rails development project will depend largely on your scope of work and the specific skills needed to bring your project to life. 

How much does it cost to hire a Ruby on Rails developer?

Rates can vary due to many factors, including expertise and experience, location, and market conditions.

  • An experienced Ruby on Rails developer may command higher fees but also work faster, have more-specialized areas of expertise, and deliver higher-quality work.
  • A contractor who is still in the process of building a client base may price their Ruby on Rails development services more competitively. 

Which one is right for you will depend on the specifics of your project.
