Ruby on Rails Developer London (Hybrid)

A fast-growing technology business is building the next generation of insurance solutions, helping major e-commerce platforms protect customers while delivering simple, modern insurance experiences.

They are scaling, ambitious, and building properly from day one: regulated, revenue-generating, and already expanding across Europe with serious backing behind them. If you want meaningful ownership instead of being another developer lost in a big corporate machine, this is a chance to help shape something from the ground up alongside a small, highly capable engineering team.

You will be working across a modern platform built predominantly in Ruby on Rails (with Python also used within the stack), contributing to backend services, APIs and integrations with platforms like Shopify and Magento. You will have genuine input on architectural direction, opportunities to improve infrastructure as things scale, and the trust to ship great work without unnecessary noise. If your background is stronger in Python than Ruby, that is absolutely fine.

Required experience:

2+ years commercial engineering experience
Strong Ruby on Rails or Python experience
Solid understanding of API-led development
Comfortable working across modern full-stack environments
Someone who enjoys ownership, initiative and working in a small, ambitious team
Happy with hybrid working, typically 23 days per week in London

In return, you will be joining a genuinely exciting scaling environment rather than a maintenance role: greenfield work, a collaborative culture built around ownership and ambition, a performance-linked quarterly bonus structure, equity eligibility and the chance to help shape a product with serious long-term potential.

If you want to build real products, have a voice, and join a bright, driven engineering team making something meaningful, this is worth a conversation.
